Hello! It's Amy, one of Helmar's certified educators, and I am so excited to share my first altered paintbrush with you today, during our fun swap with Clearsnap! I recently signed up to participate in a really fun swap between altered artists, and we are using paintbrushes. I had never made an altered paintbrush before, so I decided to make this one as a trial run. I created this for my lovely artist friend to display in her store, and it's definitely as sparkly and unique as she is. I plan to teach how to create one of these at the store in a few months. I can't wait to share these techniques.
As you will see in the quick slideshow video, showing how I created my paintbrush, I used plenty of Helmar and Clearsnap...including lots of Fairy Dust Glitter in Sugar Shimmer! Everything is better with glitter in my world.
Most of the elements on the paintbrush, are adhered with Helmar Premium Craft Glue.I love to add plenty of details to each of my projects, and it is made easy with wonderful inks, and adhesives. Have a look at my process in a short video:
