XOXO Altered Brush with Karen Jiles

Hi there, 

It’s Karen sharing an XOXO Altered Brush that I created with the Infinity Love Mix and Oval Arrow Frame Chipboard sets.  The chipboard sets were so easy to coordinate with this mixed media project. The colour choices and mediums used were perfect. Take a peek at my tutorial below.

Step 1: Apply 2 coats of white gesso to the 4in. paintbrush and XOXO word and heart arrow chipboard.

Step 2: Tap on some shimmer powders (Green Parade and Volet Brocade) and spray water onto the brush and chipboard. Set the brush and chipboard aside to dry.

Step 3: Adhere flowers, dyed ribbon and chipboard to the brush. Note: I dyed the ribbon using the same shimmer powders to coordinate with the project.

Step 4: Add beaded pins, highlight flowers and tap on some gesso to enhance the overall design.

Step 5: Continue embellishing as desired.
