Brush Away!

February 23rd, 2010 SuzyQ Leave a comment Go to comments

I remember when I first started digital scrapbooking that I was SO confused about brushes. Once I figured out that many of the brushes were like “stamps” I decided it was time to overcome my fear of brushes and try using them. Now I use them every day — both in scrapbooking and in designing. I decided that others may also be confused about brushes, so here are some great resources for you.

I love these heart brushes from TaylorMade:

And these paint strokes from Lauren Reid are totally on my wish list:

I just love paint strokes and splatters, so now that I’ve overcome my fear of using brushes, I think it’s probably time for me to create some fun splatter brushes. What do you think?

I’d love to see your layouts using any kind of brushes!

    *guilty* here…I have a ton of brushes (mostly Obsidian Dawn)…and I rarely ever think to use them.

    brushes totally confuse me just because I probably haven’t taken the time to understand them
