2016 Topic 9: Mono Printing Vickie Porter Hi everyone, Darcy here we are with the start of another topic, this time we are mono printing. This is the technical term for creating 'one off' prints, and there are many ways to do this. The name 'mono' means single, and in this case it means a single print can be made at a time. Each successive print needs more paint or ink applied to the block or plate, this changes each print ever so slightly, meaning no two are identical. With some techniques the changes are deliberate and more pronounced with the addition or removal of elements between prints. Prints can include paint, ink, collage,stencilling, mark making and additions such as leaves, string and other found objects. All these contribute to very unique prints. Once the plate is ready a layer of paper or fabric is added and pressure applied and the ink or paint is transferred. Altering the colour, type of paint and pressure will all achieve different results. This type of printing is spontaneous and unpredictable and although messy can be a lot of fun, with the variations being endless. Before we start, let's see who won the Topic 8: White Space Challenge... Well what a 'clean and minimal' couple of weeks we have had! Some really beautiful pieces that make the most of space with just pops of colour. Well done everyone that conquered the fear of 'white' and produced great compositions and balance. The winner of White Space is: Laury with this great bookmark from Laury55 Email Darcy to claim your prize. [email protected] Joan Bess Ok let's get into this topic and see how many techniques we can find. As you might have guessed printing is not new, artists such as Rembrandt, Degas, Gauguin, Picasso and Matisse are but a few that used mono printing. They experimented with paint and ink, how each layer was applied, with swiping and moving the paint/ink around with brushes, sponges and sticks, just like we do today. They also added accents by hand after the print was made. One of the older techniques (and there are many) that you will have heard about and perhaps tried is Lino printing, where sheets of lino are gouged with metal blades to create a design. This is then inked with a brayer and the print is made. Layers can be achieved by then cutting more lino away, adding a different colour ink or paint and replacing the original print to be pulled again. Small pieces of lino and hand held blades are fairly cheap and easy to find in most art shops, they are an excellent way to get started with printing. Here is Picasso working on a lino cut from 1959 This is a gorgeous multi layer lino print from Angie Lewin She has a book of her prints, drawings and collage available. I can recommend it as a beautiful 'coffee table' book, full of stunning imagery though it does not contain any technique how to's. Another multi layered lino cut here, this time from Jill Kerr. Another older technique still used today is screenprinting, originally called silkscreen printing as silk was used before the invention of synthetic mesh. Evidence of this goes back to China in 960 AD and did not arrive in the West until the 18th century. A blocking template or stencil is used to cover the mesh in the chosen design. Then a blade or squeegee is used to pull paint or ink across the mesh. The medium seeps through the mesh onto the chosen substrate, with only the blanked out areas left clear. Andy Warhol made screen printing popular in the 1960's, here he is working on one of his iconic images. Many layers can be added,each a different colour, take a look at this screen print.. this has 21 colours. Louis Masai Next we have Collagraphy; this involves gluing items to a stable background such as strong card or wood. One dried, pigments can be applied with a brush or brayer and then a print can be taken. Collagraphs are often done with found objects such as leaves, string, bubble wrap, fibres, card shapes etc the resulting prints can be really interesting. This stunning hedgerow print by Lynn Bailey has 8 layers, each time items were added or removed to achieve this composition. and another one from Lynn Bailey. How gorgeous is this print, can you imagine it over book text? Here is a super simple one done just with paper clips. There is a great pdf HERE, showing the basics of how to make a collagraph plate. Now for probably the most strange form of printing, while I have known about this for several years I have never tried it and honestly I don't plan to. The technique is Gyotaku and is an ancient Japanese method of printing from fish! Yes you read that correctly, ink is applied to a real fish and then a print is taken. Just the thought of handling the fish is enough to put me off, but even I have to admit the printed results are stunning. If you fancy learning more then have a read of THIS page. Jean Kigel So, onto the forms of printing that most of us are familiar with.. and using plates that are more accessible. after all not everyone has a full fish just hanging around! The most popular way of printing at the moment is Gelli Printing. This is a flexible plate that looks like Gelatin but is made from mineral oil and a polymer material. Provided you care for your plate it will last a long time, can be used over and over and is easy to clean. All plus points. Lucy Brydon The Gelli plate is available in quite a few sizes now and recently mini plates in various shapes have been launched. If you have a plate and have not yet tried it then now is your chance. The best place to start is the Gelli Arts Website. There you will find lots of hints and tips and they also have a youtube channel that is packed with great videos. Gelli prints are useful as a base for so many pieces of art. On this one Dina Wakely has drawn a face over her print. Here you can see the round plates have been used onto fabric creating a fabulous piece that has been turned into a cushion. Joan Bess Lots of items can be used on the Gelli plate to create patterns and textures: stencils, found objects, catalyst wedge tools, brushes, foam shapes and stamps. Many can be homemade, just be careful to never use anything with a sharp edge that could damage your plate. Marie Allen made these great texture plates from thin foam, these would add brilliant patterning to a gelli printing session. Once your prints have been pulled and dried, what can you make? Well how about a papier mache bowl . Joan Bess Or create a bright and cheery card like this from Becky. Simple circles cut from Gelli prints turn into really eyecatching lollipop flowers. Great prints are all about the layers, working out from back to front in which order everything should go. Andy Skinner shows just how effective this can be, with a bit of careful planning. How about Circles on Stripes. Here Joan has cut prints into strips and then added more prints that have been cut into circles. So striking, it looks like a solar system! There are so many things that are crying out to be gelli printed, such as SHOES or how about a CASE. { I think i might love that case a lot} Once your basic print is ready you can add so many other personal touches, such as stamping, sketching, even embossing. These cards by Godelieve Tijskens have gold embossing added, it adds a further dimension and makes them very special. You could get all whimsical like Diane did with this cat, follow the link in her name to a complete tutorial. Such a fun piece, check out her steps. One of our favourite Gelli artists is the lovely Barbara Gray, her youtube channel is full of fabulous videos. It was hard to pick just one, but this one is so effective. A very simple technique, ideal if you are just getting started. I think you will agree there are some great pieces of art out there. But what if you don't have a Gelli plate? well fear not you can still make prints. If you fancy a bit of alchemy you can create your own Gelli plate, Pam Thorburn has a recipe HERE. For a cheap alternative try printing from a Plastic Bag, Alisa Burke shows you how HERE. you could also use a plastic stationery folder in the same way. Try asking in your local DIY shop, see if they will cut a couple of pieces of acrylic or perspex for you. You can do mono printing on one piece, but if you use both pieces together you can try Dendritic printing. The name dendritic means 'having a branch form like a tree' You may have seen me demo this technique at a show. You apply paint to one plate and then lay the 2nd plate on top, press a little and then pull apart. The result is amazing, lots of little fern like branches all over the paint. This creates fabulous prints. If you have 2 of the large PaperArtsy flexi blocks you can do this technique using those. Mike Finally I will leave you with one of my favourite videos of the past few years. Laura Kemshall has such a calm and lovely voice and she explains this fabric printing technique so well that you are bound to want to try it. So, are you all fired up and ready to get printing? I hope these examples have worked their magic on you. Whether you unpack your Gelli plate,( or indeed have a go at making your own) or if you print from a plastic bag, or if you are really brave and find a fish to print.. I hope you have a great fortnight. Don't forget to follow Darcy's and Leandra's pinterest board if this topic pushes your buttons, you will see plenty more examples to whet your appetite there! I am really looking forward to seeing what you create over the next 2 weeks!

I have been working on a number of sewing projects, one being an art quilt to hang on the wall. And since I typically never buy printed fabric and instead make my own, I set out to create some unique quilt squares with lots of texture. I am always trying to find new and different ways to create pattern and texture on the surface of fabric and paper and using simple materials is my favorite way! If you haven't heard of scratch foam then you are missing out! It is basically a thin piece of soft styrofoam that can be scratched and "carved" into with simple tools. Made for kids but perfect to use in simple surface design projects when you are looking to transfer pattern and create texture. (a piece of regular recycled styrofoam could also work) I started by cutting out squares of scratch foam in the size of the squares that I want to quilt with. Next I started drawing into the surface of with a chop stick- but you could use tooth picks, pens pencils or anything with a point. I covered the entire surface of the scratch foam with my drawing (or doodle). I created a few different surfaces with different designs. Next, I grabbed a variety of Tulip Soft Fabric Paint- one of my favorite products to use when painting or printing on fabric- lots of fabulous colors to choose from and the best part is no heat setting required! I covered the scratch foam with an even layer of fabric paint, flipped the foam over and pressed down firmly onto the surface of plain white fabric. and then pulled the scratch foam plate from fabric to reveal my design. Note- this technique of printing pattern with the scratch foam is not going to get you perfect clean design every time (your should use block prints, stamps or event silkscreen if you want clean designs)- in fact each printing gives you something a little different and each and every print reveals some interesting and wonderful texture! I printed all my different squares and got lots of unique texture and pattern. I covered the surface of about 1-2 yards of fabric. Last, I cut out each square in preparation for designing my art quilt which will be coming soon :)

Supplies needed: 2 inch wide masking tape and clear tape, a rubber stamp, card, a permanent black ink (I used stazon) Ink up your stamp. You need to use a stamp whose image is no wider than your tape. Also be aware not to use a stamp with any bold words or writing as the image will be reversed. Take a piece of either type of tape and tear a piece off to cover your image. Place the tape over the top of your inked rubber stamp and gently press down on the tape to transfer the ink from the stamp to the tape Peel the tape off your rubber stamp and tape it to your piece of card. The image has now been transferred from your inked stamp to your card This transfer was created using the masking tape This transfer was created using the clear tape There are various things you can do with the tape lift stamped image. Here I have used masking tape and stuck it directly to an acrylic background that I created earlier. Even though the masking tape has a cream tinge to it, you can still see the background through the tape You can also use alcohol inks over the clear tape image or you could sponge on dye inks over the masking tape image Have a play and have fun

The little guy and I are loving all of the awesome stamps that we've been getting in our Mother Goose Time curriculum kits this year. We ended up with a set of family stamps and of course there's a brand-spankin'-new shape stamp each month too. Over the course of the last year, we've accumulated lots of other stamps that we bought to go along with our themes.

Topic 11: Hidden Objects Hi everyone, Leandra here Well this is a bit of tricky topic isn't it! For a start, how can we show pictures of things that are 'hidden' ??? Well we do love a challenge, and I have plenty of images, and even though there is no video from me this week, I have sourced 2 other videos for you to watch to get your heads ticking...more of that in a bit For now, as you might be aware, we are currently up in the north of England at the Stamp magic show in Doncaster. No doubt by now we are hopefully packed up and driving home, but the upshot of our activity is that there is no one around to draw the challenge winner, so we will announce it here tomorrow. So very sorry for the anticlimax, but do check back this time tomorrow by which time Darcy will have updated this post to announce who has won! Darcy here... What a great topic to explore bottles was ...who knew so much could be done with bottles. I can see a lot less bottles going out in the recycling box now. From tiny accent bottles to large vases and garden lanterns, textured paper vases and some fantastic paint effects. Well done everyone! Sooooo, the winning name from Topic 10:Bottles..goes to...Georgina Ford from Kaardvark So....it's Leandra back with you tonight to explore Hidden Objects. First up this really caught my eye...technically its not hidden...but the words on the page infer that it is, and that's good enough for me..you can see more pictures here on the flickr feed In the same vein...is it hidden...isn't it?? I don't mind, but there are pockets involved, and transparent or not, they still fit the vibe! I love this idea, and really great if you have collected holiday mementos for example. Another one for the is-it-hidden-or-isn't-it category, I do love a bit of a glassine envelope! With the vintage theme, this piece it looks stunning! This is exactly what I had in mind fro this topic...stealth journalling..and I love how these sleeves are custom-made as are the tags inside! It's the brainchild of Michelle Ward, and if you go here to the post, it's part of her Crusade Series, you will found a downloadable printable, and more instructions on the rest of the project and process. I love Michelle's use of colour and composition, well worth a look! So this is another wrapped up item...in fact if you go to the post, you will see they have tied up all kinds of objects! I like that not only are the items hidden below...well almost! But if you go to the post, there are boxes etc tied up with no access allowed, and no sense of what is inside. So you can wrap in all kinds of ways! This next example is from Robin-Marie Smith, circa 2010! Again, it's a simple pocket with hidden contents, journalling style. There is a wealth of colour, texture on her blog, I adore her style, so cheerful and full of sunshine. Here's an actual book made from envelopes. I have heaps of these, they are quite dinky in size, and great if you want to keep special things or vintage items a bit more private. Here's the link to the post. And here is another idea, this is from a French blog, and there are several ideas using a correspondence theme for travel journalling/ scrapping. I love how she has used airmail envelopes to scrapbook onto, it looks so cool around the edges! Check out the post here from some more fabulous ideas! Here is another pocket style idea... ...with an instructional video ...And the cousin to pockets is of course flaps I found this one from a Faber Castell Blog Hop. It's mail art and boy that takes me back! We used to send mail art regularly way back when...like over a decade ago!! It's so much fun as the recipient gets very excited about how beautiful the outside looks, so they are itching to see what is inside! Perhaps you might like to send something to somebody this week, and decorate the envelope? Now this one is a bit different... Crafty Dogma on Flickr has created a collage, but the face is kind of hidden, or looks almost shrouded, Whatever it is, I really like the effect that the person is kind of hiding behind something...I think the use of white helps contribute to that impression. Here is another face, but it's a face behind a face which is very clever, inferring quite a bit about the ageing process. It's from a tumblr account. I think its wonderful imagery! ...this little guy is hidden, and in a bit of a pickle too by the look of it! This one is also interesting. Objects on fabric, with what looks like a soft layer of muslin glued/ stitched over the top and moulded carefully around the items to show their relief. In crafting terms, we tend to do this in a similar way with objects slathered in paint or gesso. Niches also work for this topic, especially if you put doors on them!! Like the Shadowbox below....see the door to the left? Itching to open that!! And lastly, here is a totally stunning book...well more like many books inside books! With a fabulous message about patience buried in the centre! Check out the video below. You must go to the site of the book artist Randi Parkhurst! You can and watch the video here or click play below to see how she has impeccably constructed these books. Patience from Glowing Heads on Vimeo. So you have 2 weeks to think about what you can hide and where! If you are still stuck, check out my pinterest board here for this Topic. I will be pinning loads more over the next 2 weeks, you can follow this and many other PA related boards here. You can also follow the PaperArtsy pinterest page here.

Quick and affordable packaging Beautiful and unique packaging is the foundation of any great consumer brand but it is often incredibly expensive to bring your ideas to life. Custom rubber stamps are an awesome, cost-effective way to create DIY custom packaging while achieving a remarkably polished look. These are some exceptional examples of custom rubber stamps used for packaging to inspire your next project. P&Co. Coffee Bags (above)We absolutely love this design and execution. This beautiful and retro layout makes for an awesome coffee bag on a budget. A custom rubber stamp like this costs less than $40 but allows you or your client to create packaging on demand for years to come. Circle 21 CandlesThis is a great example of just how flexible custom rubber stamps can be. The designers at Nudge used several stamps to complement the printed labels on these candles. By using the same printed label for each candle, they are able to use a custom rubber stamp to denote the scent of each candle. This is an awesome way to blend production methods and reduce custom packaging costs. They also used a rubber stamp on the cork stopper, giving it an intentionally organic and irregular finish. PipcornUsing custom rubber stamps for packaging is great—especially when you're just starting out. Pipcorn is a young company that used rubber stamps on their first run of packaging. The rubber stamp on a simple (and inexpensive) brown paper bag makes for a fun look that still feels polished. Pipcorn eventually went on to Shark Tank and now have a presence in retail stores around the country. Illegal BurgerMulti stamp madness! Using rubber stamps in your custom packaging doesn't mean you're limited in what you can do. This example from The Metric System shows how stamps can be used together to create engaging print effects. They used a larger stamp with red ink as a backing and then placed a smaller black stamp on top of it. This gives their custom packaging a high-end look without having to pay printing fees. Mr. Popple's ChocolateThis is another great example of using multiple stamps to differentiate products. The designers at KO Creative used a set of stamps to denote the different chocolate flavors and convey an organic feel to the overall packaging system. Best of all, the irregularities in stamp press and placement give each bar a unique, hand-crafted feel that strengthens their brand image. Curry Up NowIn packaging, simplicity speaks volumes. The designers from Design Womb used a custom rubber stamp on a brown paper bag to round out their design system for this SF-based Indian food truck. Ready to make a stamp for your own packaging? Head over to our custom rubber stamp builder and get going. We can't wait to see what you come up with.
I receive all kinds of inquiries about how to mount and use rubber stamps and since I have a new batch of stamps in the shop, I thought it would be fun to dedicate a post to some of my favorite tips and techniques for using rubber stamps (any kind of rubber stamps). Please note- I am not a traditional stamper- instead I am always looking to use my stamps in new and creative ways in my art and crafting projects! Since I use stamps for a variety of different projects I like to keep the mounting process simple and economic! In my opinion, you can pretty much mount a stamp to just about anything but I prefer acrylic blocks (you can see what you are doing better) and craft foam. These are the two materials that I use in my own stamping. I simply spray the back of the rubber stamp with spray mount. It gets the back side of the stamp nice and tacky and you are able to stick it to anything! Its also easy to peel off and switch out different designs. If I am working with clay I keep my stamps unmounted. I am obsessed with pattern and all of my stamp designs were created with pattern in mind! I like to fill a surface (my favorite is brown craft paper) by repeating and overlapping the different designs. This concept is perfect for creating wrapping paper, decorative paper or fabric. When you think of stamping you don't usually think of watercolors but you can get some really beautiful effects! I paint my color directly onto the stamp and then start stamping! Stamping into a wet surface will cause the design to bleed and it's beautiful! Stamping into a dry surface will get you a more clean print. There are all kinds of really cool inks out there for stamping and my favorite is permanent ink made for all surfaces. I love using this ink to create unique stamped accessories from a variety of materials (wood, plastic, metal). I love finding simple and unique surfaces to stamp on! Stamping on masking tape is such a great way to create your own decorative tape (but on a budget!). My parents are potters which means I have a special place in my heart for clay. Unmounted stamps can be used to create texture, pattern or an imprint in all kinds of clay projects. I think my favorite way to use stamps it to cut the designs out and turn then into something new. From tags to wreaths to garlands there are SO many different ways to craft with cut out stamps! To view all of my unmounted rubber stamps and my hand carved stamps you can visit my shop HERE!
