Blue Stars

The Brushos are still sitting on my desk for easy access allowing me to create more pretty patterns. Blue happens to be my favourite colour so I was quite happy the blends and patterns happening on this panel. To create these blue stars I stamped in water then sprinkled some brusho over the water. I used a paintbrush to fill the stars with brusho blues and a spritzer to spread the colour outside the outlines. When I was almost finished painting I spritzed with blue pearl-ex spray to add some shimmer and sheen. The sentiment is stamped in two blues, something I do when I don’t have the exact match in ink.
Supplies:
Stamps: Soft Grace, Yuletide Greetings (PB)
Inks: Versafine majestic blue and deep lagoon (ImagineCrafts/Tsukineko)
Cardstock: Canson 100% cotton hot pressed watercolour paper, blue cardstock
Also: Brusho watercolour powder, Interference blue pearl-ex spray

Great card ! A real eye-catcher !
So pretty, Heather! I haven’t tried to stamp the water and sprinkle the Brushos. Definitely will try this!
Oh so pretty Heather and I really need some of these paints as the colours are so vibrant and gorgeous! x

So pretty love all that blue. When i first saw the star I wondered what it was and when it turned out to be from soft grace PB so excited. I have that set. I have been wanting brushos for along time, now even more.. Thank you.
Beautiful! Another fun example for using Brushos!
When and if I own some brushes/bisters/etc. I will have to remember this idea! I really like the way this card turned out.
Just gorgeous, Heather … love that bold blue against the crisp white … so striking! Anita 🙂
