Our Gelli Arts Journal Kit includes everything you need to begin creating colorful layered prints, backgrounds, journals, cards, tags, and mixed media projects — all in one creative bundle.
Gel printing is one of those techniques that feels almost magical. Every pull creates unique textures, patterns, and layers, making every project completely one-of-a-kind.

Gelli Arts brayer
3” x 5” gel printing plate
Journal

Texture tools and bits
Additional creative extras for layering and experimenting
It’s designed to help beginners jump right in while still being incredibly fun for experienced mixed media artists.
Why We Love Gel Printing
Gel printing is perfect for:
layered mixed media backgrounds
junk journals
handmade cards
scrapbook pages
collage art
art journals
tags and ephemera
The process is simple, relaxing, and endlessly creative.
No two prints ever turn out exactly the same — and that’s part of the fun.
Easy Ways to Use Your Prints
1. Create Background Papers
Use your gel prints as colorful backgrounds for cards, journals, and scrapbook layouts.
2. Add Stencils for Texture
Layer stencils onto your plate to create beautiful dimensional patterns and organic textures.
3. Build Collage Layers
Tear or cut your printed papers into pieces for collage clusters and mixed media embellishments.
4. Fill Your Journal
Use your prints to create colorful journal pages filled with layers, textures, and creative experimentation.
Beginner Friendly & Fun
One of the best things about gel printing is that there really are no mistakes.
Every layer adds interest, texture, and personality to your project.
You can keep things simple with a single color and stencil or build up multiple layers for bold artistic effects.
