Just not for gel plate printing
Distress colors are rich and vibrant. There are no other colors like them. I’ve used them for collage backgrounds in the past and they worked beautifully. But, having forgotten how extremely fluid they are, I bought Speckled Egg and Crackling Campfire because I couldn’t resist. ;o) I tried everything to get them to work on my gel plate. Tried Pinterest suggestions, watched a few videos, tried mixing them w PaperArtsy Fresco Finish paint, which I thought might make them less watery. They just bead up on the gel plate. I was so disappointed.
