Smaller sizes for gelli plates, love it.
Would love to have a go with these small plates! I'm an art journaller and I've used my big plate directly in my journal but it is a bit big and unwieldy for that purpose. Smaller ones would be AWESOME!
These would be perfect for my art classroom! A colleague if mine just ordered a classroom set and I am sooooo jealous! I would love to start a collection of Gelli plates for my art students!!
I love the small plates. My daughter is coming for an art visit is sept, I think gelli printing will be on the menu. I only have one plate, hope to get another.

Oh what fun these new small Gelli plates will be…..How did you get the white border around the greeting cards? That's what I'd like to try. I love all things Gelli Plates!!
These are so fun and love the mini tutorial videos. The metallic looking paints are great.
So true that is hard to stop, using a gelli plate of any size is totally addiciting!
The kids and I are going to start making Christmas and Birthday tags to give with gifts. Thanks for all the wonderful ideas!!!! Happy Crafting…
Would love to win the 3 x 5 Gelli plate!!!! Soooo handy for small projects!

Awsome! Love them!
Oh I would love to win these new plates especially for cards. I would then play with them with my little Granddaughter. We would have a blast.
I've been using the 6 X 6 plate to do small cards. These two new sizes are going to be so much easier for compositions on smaller cards and tags. It's like you read my mind!
Wow, that looks so fun!
Question to all: I would love to buy a gelli plate. I'm primarily a card maker but do dabble in mixed media. What size plate would you recommend ? Thanks, MA in CT
Since the 5×7 is made specifically for card making, I'd say it's the obvious choice.
With so many comments, my chances of winning are slim. I already ordered these plates, but IF I should win, I can invite someone over to play with me. Thanks for coming up with such great ideas for printing!
These are going on my wish list!
Exactly the sizes I have been looking for……… I was thinking of cutting my large Gelli plate into smaller pieces this morning……… THEN I SAW THIS!!! Thank you.
your product is one of the funnest things ever… and one could easily "collect" all of the sizes, if for nothing more than a fettish of frenzied printing!!
OMG! I didn't think I would want these, but after seeing the video I now know that I NEED these. So cool. How fun it would be to make a bunch of tags. I especially liked the ones with the iridescent sheen. So pretty.
Great video – thanks for the chance to with both plates!
😀 eirdre
Let me try again! I would love to win these.
Oh my goodness…..I love working on small pieces…thanks for a chance to win these little plates!
adorable and awesome!
Love, love, love the small one. Such beautiful tags with so little supplies
I love, love, love the small plate. So much beauty, so little supplies needed.
Love the new products!
So excited to see the smaller plates, especially the one for making cards!
Nice video, this is a good new item. Grand kid friendly!
lovely size and great ideas
Great sizes and so much inspiration! Thank you!
Love the new sized plates and all the tags and cards you created!
These new sizes are terrific! Way to go, Gelli elves!
This whole Gelli thing is SO addictive. I could watch the video demos forever…well almost….at least until I'm compelled to rush to the studio and begin playing.
Looking forward to seeing this in person later in the month at a local art center.
I would love to try this with a smaller plate.
Ooooo love the video! I have never used a Gelli plate before but have been dyeing to try one! The small ones would great for me!
