#gelypostcardplay

Welcome to the July challenge hosted by ‎@CeriGriffiths ! #GelyPostcardPlay
The guidelines are: 4"x6" size, use something that was made on a gelplate or made while using a gelplate to include digitals/printables, put the corresponding number on the front (July 1 would be a one, etc.), and have fun. If you want to play and don't have any gelplate related items just play along anyway. Do it when you can. If you don't make 31, it's okay.
Here's the video link for Ceri's introduction to the challenge: • #GelyPostcardPlay Launch
I'm using June prompts by Paulla, Becky. and ‎@EddieMakesArt for a jumping off point for some of the cards. The printable for that can be found on Eddie's community page in CZcams.
My goal is to post every day in July. Most videos will be short with some longer ones showing techniques on the gel plate, etc.
I will be choosing a winner from the comments for each postcard mid August. I'm making one to keep and one to give away each day. The giveaway is open to anywhere I can mail an envelope without filling out paperwork. If I can mail it with an international forever stamp, I'll mail it.

That's why I wanted to show it: in case some people hadn't seen it before. Thanks, Estella ♥️

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thanks, Lynne 🩵

[@Jaelri]

Loving the enthusiasm that you are bringing to this. Someone who makes 2-5 cards in one day is truly embracing the challenge, not just going through the motions to say they did it. Your cards are consistently gorgeous. 😊

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thank you so much 🩵

[@eloisenunez8512]

100% agree.

[@robinpowell2712]

So very cute! Have a great day 🎉❤

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thanks so much 🩵

[@kathartley66]

Wow so many great postcards to choose from today! Love the base layer idea...going to try that soon. I'd love to win the dog or cat...or any of them really they're great!

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thanks, Kat ♥️

[@susanbilyeu22]

You always come up with such clever ideas! Darcy and her big, beautiful brain! XO! I have catching up to do (on your videos), but got this one in as it was at the top of the list - all wonderful cards! I think I'll do the "Darcy Stack and Whack" for my next 5 cards! I've been trying to get caught up (or even ahead) - this might really help! Awesome!

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thank you so much, Susan 🩵

[@janehunt6386]

They all look FAB. I esp love your term stack & whack!!.

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thanks ♥️ Someone else came up with that term; I don't know who.

[@janehunt6386]

Stamping up demo used the phrase stack & shuffle. Yours rhymes. ​@@DarcysMixedMedia

[@gerricraig7730]

These are great! Love the stack and whack technique

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Thanks so much!

[@kimberleymaloy1728]

I Love them all! I like the stack and whack method a lot. The dog looks like my parents' dog Wilber, so my pick in order would be dog, zebra,squirrel, kitty, and girl. TFS 😊

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

Awww, I'd love a dog like that. So cute. Thanks, hun.

[@kimberleymaloy1728]

@DarcysMixedMedia he is and he's so loving. They live down the drive from me and every time I go to their house he comes home with me and goes straight to where I keep the doggie treats and waits patiently. When he's had all he wants and he's had enough playtime with my girl he trots off back to his house. It's the cutest thing.

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

@@kimberleymaloy1728 awwwwwwwww

[@CheleinSF]

These are so cute❤❤❤

Darcy these are just wonderful. Now you have me wanting to try the stack and whack again which I fail at ever time but it's always fun.~Patti

[@DarcysMixedMedia]

@@fairytalesandfireflies8237 my secret is to making them work is to use slightly larger pieces than the base im using.

[@kathythurman7090]

I'm new here - just wanted to say I love these cards and your techniques! Love the cat card especially!
