I started out using my 12 x 14 Gelli plate to make the background on a 11 x 14 mixed media paper. I used Journal Artista (Paula Phillips) crusty bits technique. You can find a video of this process on her YouTube channel titled "Gelli printing with JournalAritsta Stencils from Stencil Girl Products". For the first layer I used Liquitex Basics Light Blue Permanent, pebeo Iridescent blue green and goldens titanium white. One the second layer I just used titanium white and on the third layer I used Liquitex Basics Cerulean Blue Hue. Here is the result.
I found that I could make 16 ATC cards from one page. So from that I was able to start 2 pocket letter pages. Using the leftover scraps to make the two extra cards.
So now with some help from some friends Kerri and Lyn. I am exploring some new techniques and will have the pocket letters done in the next couple of days.
