I am super excited to be joining Taylor and some friends today for a Blender Brush Blog Hop. If you haven't seen these amazing rainbow blending brushes over at Taylored Expressions, head over and check them out! They are AMAZING and OH so cute!!
The Blender Brushes are 6" long and have white bristles, which for me is the best part. You can definitely keep track of the ROYGBIV and use one brush per color. Taylored Expressions hit the mark there when they came up with this concept. You an also get a caddy to go along with the brushes. This keeps them all in one place and they look oh so cute on your desk!
Here is my project for today. We mostly used blender brushes to.....well blend....but today I am using them to apply ink to a stamp....
To create this card, I pulled out the brushes, a rainbow of ink and my FAVORITE striped background stamp. Using the brushes, I brushed ink on to each stripe of the stamp until I had the perfect rainbow. Brushing the ink on gives a totally different look than just applying it with the ink pad. It blends the ink if there is any overlapping and it gives the overall image a soft brushed look.
I cut the striped panel down just a little and popped it up on a white card base so the you can see a little of the base on the top and bottom. Next, I heat embossed a sentiment onto a circle of vellum and added that to my card. I finished the card off with some clear drops.
I posted this pic on IG awhile back but had to share again. I love the color in the brushes just as they sit on my desk and almost work like a great piece of craft room decor!
