Trying Brusho

Hello stampers,
     At Kerri's class last month she let us try out the new Brusho in the catalog. Some of us went about doing things the hard way, I, of course, was a bit faster to finish my 2 cards before being told we had done things the wrong way. While I liked the way the watercoloring turned out, although I now notice in the pics that I didn't go over the embossing with a paper towel like I should have, I really liked the speckled look that the others got in their 2nd cards. My initial thought just seeing this stuff in the catalog was that it would be messy & I wasn't wrong on that. Can I say I'm a big fan? For now, probably not, but it is another great way to do things.
     For the cards, we used the new Beautiful Day Stamp Set, embossed each stamp with VersaMark Ink & White Embossing Powder on Watercolor Paper. After heat setting them, we used AquaPainters to wet the area before applying the Brusho. I started with yellow on the butterfly but the blue took over & I just went with it, adding a few Basic Jewel Rhinestones for the body & top of the antennas.
