Brusho Week #2: Using Brusho for a Watercolor Wash

I wish I could take all the credit for this Brusho Watercolor Wash, but the fun fact is, my friend Julia Sharpe Fair and I were playing one night and this is what we came up with together.  Sadly, when we were all finished, we realized we hadn’t recorded our process.  But that’s ok, I went back and made one for you later. 

I do apologize for the portrait shot of the video.  I believe I’ve got this figured out and am keeping my fingers crossed for landscape mode in the future

Base: Whisper White, Thick, 8 ½” x 5 ½”, scored at 4 ¼”
Layer 1: Dapper Denim, 5 1/8” x 3 7/8”
Layer 2: Shimmery White, 5” x 3 ¾” 
Layer 3:  Berry Burst Crinkle Ribbon 

1. In two separate spots, sprinkle a bit of Brilliant Red and a Prussian Blue onto your Silicon Craft Mat (or a large acrylic stamping block).  With your Aqua Painter, pick up some of the red and lightly brush it onto Layer 2, moving from the left side to the middle, using vertical (up and down) strokes.  Do this until you’re satisfied with the color.  Clean your brush. Then, pick up some blue, and paint from right to center, mixing the two colors in the middle. Allow to dry. 
2. Stamp Greeting in Versamark and heat emboss with White Embossing Powder.
3. Adhere Layers 2 & 3.  Wrap ribbon and tie a bow.
4. Adhere to card.
