Hello.
I'm going bold and bright today, for the Inspired By Challenge
I finally got round to buying some cheap ink blending brushes -
oh hello - now I know what all the fuss is about!
This was my first attempt with one, and I found it so easy to use, the ink just glided more smoothly onto the paper.

I also cobbled together a makeshift ink blending mat, by taping a piece of acetate to a craft mat.
This makes it easy to wipe off excess ink, and pick it up later if you need to.
I'm sure i'll discover other ways to use it too - spritzing with water etc.
Question : Do you clean your brushes? How do you do that?
For now, I brushed left over ink onto scrap card!

Of course, I couldn't make a {heart} card, without including my favourite bear,
along with a few gems.

Caroline I love our favorite bear peeking into view! What a darling way to send hugs! Love all this bold bright color!
I use dish soap for my brushes, in the palm of my hand... then rinse until the warm water runs clear.
