Brusho Crystal Colours

These colours come in little  pots  and they are very intense, transparent crystals that can be used in cardmaking

They will cover card, paper, wood and fabric and they are brilliant for making fantasy backgrounds.

To make this dark sky I have used Ultra Marine Blue and Purple with a tiny amount of black around the edges

When you get them the pots are sealed and my advice would be to simply poke holes in the top of the pot to create a pepper pot look because the colours are so vibrant and all you need is the tiniest amount

These two cards have been created with the Purple and Ultra Marine for the flowers

Leaf Green and Emerald Green for the leaves

Yellow and Leaf Green for the background

Once you add the water the colours burst into life and mingle with each other.

For a deeper effect add more crystals or a spritz more water

If you wanted a paler look then you can blot the colours with a piece of kitchen roll and that will soften the look

These  Brusho Crystal Colours  are so much fun to play with and I hope you will give them a go

And if you don't like the effect then you can always start again as you learn just what these colours can do

Experiment with them by mixing your own colours.

And by sprinkling some onto an acrylic block and adding water will let you use them as ordinary water colours.
