Gelatos Blended Tag

A dreamy blend made with gelatos.

Going for a sky-inspired look, I blended Gelatos to create a soft, dreamy background. To add depth, I layered on some dimensional cloud shapes that really make the scene pop. I finished the tag with a touch of coordinating ribbon, pulling everything together beautifully. The result is a tag that truly captures the feeling of a dream floating across the sky.

The image above show some of the materials I used. I was inspired by the visible image stamp.

Here you can see the detail of the clouds, their texture and drawn elements along with the gelatos blending.

Using Gelatos with a Stencil

Inspired by a sweet gift of Gelatos, I created this colorful tag using a stencil and creamy pigment magic!

Thanks to a dear friend (Lolly) who gifted me a variety of Gelatos, I was inspired to create this vibrant tag using a combination of Gelato pigments and a stencil. The creamy colors blended beautifully, adding soft texture and depth, while the stencil helped bring structure and detail to the design. It’s always amazing how the right supplies—and a thoughtful friend—can spark creative energy!

If you don’t know Lolly you are truly missing a great instructor. Take a moment to go visit her at Lolly Palooza.

The variety of materials used to create this week’s tag for Tag it Tuesday are shown in the above image.

The beautiful butterfly sticker was found at the Dollar Tree. I also wanted to point out the sentiment. I covered cardstock with packing tape to get the glass-like look before die cutting.

Tag it Tuesday with Gelatos

This week’s Tag it Tuesday uses Gelatos in two different techniques. Gelatos are a smooth soft crayon-like product that can mix with water and blend easily with or without water. I added some plastic netting for texture (that photographs oddly) and a simple piece of ephemera to finish off the tag.

In the detailed photo above, you can see the plastic netting a bit better and the dimension it created. The tag this week was pretty simple and quick to make but I am happy with the result.
