SPLASH at CASology

When I saw this week's cue card at CASology, I knew I wanted to play with paint splashes - not sure this turned out as CAS as it could have, but I still love it!


Supplies: Paintbrush stamp from PTI; sentiment from Paper Smooches; splat from Neat & Tangled; Memento Tuxedo Black ink; water brush; Bic markers; Distress inks in Vintage Photo, Antique Linen, Barn Door, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed, Mowed Lawn, Salty Ocean, Shaded Lilac; Mod Podge Dimensional Magic; Martha Stewart fine crystal glitter


I watercoloured the brushes & bristles, and used a marker for the 'silver' parts & paint. After stamping all the splats, I coated them & the painted bristles with Dimensional Magic for some wet paint gloss, and added glitter at the top & bottom with Scor-Tape. Handy dandy easy peasy! And extra points for the NBUS paint brushes - I can't believe I've never inked them up, but it's true.


xoxo,
Jessi

Not too many layers, still some white space... looks CAS to me! All the glossy paint splotches are awesome. I can't believe you hadn't inked up those brushes yet, either!
