This evening I wondered what kinds of paper would Gocco work on. I took out my experimental master screen from the fridge and gave it a whirl on these things I found around my office/craft room.
Top row, left to right:
- Transparency sheet
- An acrylic I painted and had finished with quite a few Minwax polycrylic coats
- The front of a Diet Coke cardboard
- The back of Diet Coke cardboard
- Rice paper
- A magazine page
- Shrinky Dink (unshrunk as of yet)
- A page from an old Gregg Shorthand book
- (Below it) a plain white letter-sized envelope
- A piece of marbelized paper I did a long, long time ago
- The frontispiece of a book.
The mind does race with possibilities for implementing prints into collages, stationery, and other fun things.

Amazing!
The possibilities for whacky pictures with this thing! I love the idea of prints on magazine shots - surreal seeing those birds hanging over the furniture.
Keep going girl - it's so exciting
BTW what is Shrinky Dink and Minwax?
Shrinky Dink is such a great name. I can think of a few people I might use it as a nickname for
LOL ;-)
- I do understand that old saying - a people divided by a common language - I guess they are brand names of things you get in the States - we probably have the same stuff here but with different names.
Here's an idea: Thick vellum, coloured or not - you can also paint on it! The printed vellum would look beautiful layered on top of pretty paper as well as on its own.
Ditto, Frances - even though we're on the same continent, I don't have a clue what a Shrinky Dink is. I almost wrote a very naughty retort to that nickname quip, but I self-censored just in time. :-)
Can I come and play pleaaaaase?
Ooh Rima
I do wonder what you could have been thinking of.;-))
I agree, Neda, it would be lovely to visit and play with Debi I liked the idea of the dirt balls for that - it's a bit far for me to pop round on the off-chance.
Thank you for all the sweet comments (and some lewd ones as well).
I wish we all could get together for a play date! Man, that would be fun.
P.S. I liked your idea of the vellum paper, Rima. If had some on hand I would give it a try. With all this stuff I've got here, you'd think I'd have at least one sheet of that.
