Inky brush cleaning

 


I have separate blending brushes as recommended for Distress Ink and Distress Oxide.  I accidentally used my Distress Ink brushes with DOxInks, so gave them a wash with handwash foam in the palm of my hand, rubbing the brush in and the colour came out beautifully into the foam.  Not being one to waste anything, I rushed and got some pre-cut panels of watercolour card that I had ready to use for another project and smeared the foam out, leaving it to dry naturally.  YAY, what a lovely mottled result.  Similar to using shaving foam but easier and what a lot of ink comes out. 

This is what they looked like when dry.

They look stunning Carol. Waste not, want not for sure. Almost like a mini bubble technique!
