Tuesday Tips - Blending Brushes & Welcoming Windows #4

Fourth and last in this Welcoming Windows mini series... 

Though there are a few mini more Welcoming Windows series to share... but what do you think so far?

Anyways today... we have curtains at the window instead... again care of the Sale A Bration free Paper Blooms papers

And the embossed brick walls are roughly brushed with Sahara Sand... using the new and amazing Blending Brushes... which are amazing... and keep going in and out of low stock as they are proving popular... so don't delay in buying these...

And a few tips for you when using the Blending Brushes... which have the finest of white bristles to blend with

(1) apply quite a lot of ink as then the blending is much easier and smoother

(2) dont "pounce" the brush direct onto the panel.... move it from the edge onto the panel instead... and using a craft mat under your panel (aka cheap oven liner in my craft room!) really helps smooth the ink onto your panel

(3) Contrary to some rumours!!!!... you don't need a brush for every colour... lol...  but you will soon make use of the 3 in the pack... I will keep one each for blues, greens and neutrals (eg Sahara Sand)... as I use all those a lot... Then I'll just get another set of 3... as they can be cleaned by rubbing/swooshing on a dry microfibre cloth... but they  are washable too!

Don't forget that you can make these "with me" too... whether its a class in the mail (UK only) or the Tutorials in pdf format... click here for more information...
