I've loved seeing people work with brusho crystals and am so glad you did a inspiration video! Since I am more of an artist than crafter, I tend to have artist grade materials and I've been interested in these for years. Thank you for the review!!
I love anything watercolor and this was so great. I feel like a real artist when I do it. I love bright colors so I might look into these powders.
These powders are amazing. First time seeing and hearing about them. Looks like so much fun and so many creative ideas can be made! Need to have these in my life lol. TFS!!!!
I've only used watercolors a few times, so I need to do it more. The brusho watercolor powders look amazing.
These powders are amazing! I really want to get my hands on them to play with these.
Thank you for sharing this product! I have wondered what the powders were, and I just love your experimentation. These cards are gorgeous!
Love the vibrant colors from these powders! Pretty cards!
Really incredible video, Jennifer! I'm working on my backgrounds with my card making, so a video like this is just what I needed. LOVE the Brushos! Can't wait to get them! Thank you for continuing to inspire!
Wow! This would be perfect for someone like me that cannot seem to get colors to do what I intend them to do. I love how they blend with subtle hues. Amazing video! Thank you so much for sharing....love, love, love the cards you make!
As usual, beautiful cards and tempting techniques to try. You are an amazing lady with a knack to engage stampers!
Thanks
Beautiful cards with lovely colors. Love the blending without any effort.
fabulous..love the free flowing opportunities..thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks for the demo Jennifer. My son now lives in Ireland (we're Canadian) and he's bringing me back some of these powders. I can't wait to get my hands on them! TFS
Very cool product with very cool results. I loved all your examples! Gorgeous lotus stamp, too.
So gorgeous! Love the effects of these!
Love this technique. Your videos are always to easy to following and instructions are great. Thanks for sharing with everyone.
I just purchased Ken Oliver's color burst and will do a video on it next week. They are very fun!
Wow!!! Love these cards!! Those powders look like a lot of fun!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thanks for sharing. Looks like it would be fun to experiment with to get some interesting backgrounds. Love how the orange and yellow flowers turned out.
Hey Jennifer, thanks for showing us how to use the new Brusho Watercolor Powders. I love the burst of color! It almost looks like magic! I am going to have to get some and play....
watching your tutorial again +Jennifer McGuire Ink!! I just love how this product works!! And you've made such beautiful cards!! ☺
I have this watercolor powder and i love them!!! Fantastic colors!
YESSSS! I LOVE brushes! You can also mix them with your texture pastes etc to create really vivid coloured pastes. Unbelievable product with so many possibilities, and I'm over the moon to see you embrace them, Jennifer :)
*brushos* ...doh!
I love the looks you got with this product. Very fun and informative video.
I found this "older" video of yours, Jennifer, and the Brusho technique caught my eye as I just have been introduced to them...I ADORE them and your techniques are so "do-able"! I have a suggestion as to how to store your little jars of Brusho after poking the tiny holes in them...I just poked one hole in center and put a push pin in the hole to store them! Easy peasy and a very inexpensive way to store...Again, Jennifer....you are my absolute favorite! So glad I found this one!
thank you, will try this technique of applying the water first before the colour when using stamps as I like the way the colours make their own background.
Love the demo. Just ordered. I'm so excited to try them out. I'll be referring to your video. Thanks again.
Love all your examples I just ordered these can't wait to play
Thank you, I really appreciate your videos as they help me with my own personal cardmaking for family and friends
Great video on how to use watercolor crystals! Several ideas & well explained.
Love the looks of this technique. I have the powders but haven't tried them yet. Time to experiment with them!
Thank you Jennifer. Pretty colors.
Wow! I've never heard of these before..... Absolutely beautiful..... Top of my wish list. Jennifer, watching your videos is dangerous for me, you make me want so many new products
these colors are amazing
Love your technique videos! You are one of the most detailed teachers. I want to immediately go buy the products you demonstrate, but I would need 2 more jobs! Thank you for sharing.
I really love my brusho’s! Thanks for the fun tips!
Loved this video as always your techniques are always very inspirational to me. I thank you so much for sharing your talent.
Wow ! Great cards. Thanks for the ideas and techniques.
Thanks for the great tutorial and demo Jennifer...
I bought the "Magenta" brand of these a while back & absolutely LOVE them! You can paint with them, Brushos, etc. like regular watercolors... soft of! The colors can get away from you very quickly, as you said, VERY concentrated!!! That cannot be overemphasized!!!
They tend to be transparent, but are staining in my experience. You can lift them though, at least the Brushos & the Magenta ones... There are quite a few brands out there. It seems Brushos has quite a few tutorials if you're looking! There are paper apparently "embedded", or coated pigments too in a few brands, and those are similar in that they're all very concentrated... Peerless makes those watercolors, and those are a bit less concentrated, but are still concentrated too!
I love them all! Just have to use differently than regular watercolors & in micro tiny amounts, as they can EASILY make a page a single color with just a few grains of sand!
Nice tutorial! I use them in a pallet, shake them on then spray water on them too!
I love the embossing with these! I'll have go try that too some time! Very pretty!
Florals are usually not really my thing, but I absolutely love those lotus blossoms! Very cool video! :)
Very cool. Thanks for the video, you can do lots of things with it, love the backgrounds.
What a cute and lovely card. Thanks for sharing the video.
Very informative! I've never heard of these color crystals before. (Or I chose to ignore them so that I won't want them. LOL) The colors are amazing! Thanks and that Lotus stamps is a must have!
Thanks Jennifer for introducing me to these great watercolour inks. I've never seen these before and look forward to trying them out. It looks like even I might get good results from these. I have just looked on their website (S.S.A), and they are very inexpensive. Thanks again 😁
TFS this nice product ! You have using it so well as always !
I think I see another purchase in my near future! Thank you Jennifer.
Amazing results and beautiful cards :-)
Great card…bought the set of 12 Brusho watercolor powders.
Wonderful video and new to me product!
These are so cool!
Thank you for the informative video and techniques.
OH! Lalala!.... Pas sûr que j'arrive un jour à faire quelque chose d'aussi joli, mais que tes cartes donnent envie!!!! Merci infiniment pour ce partage...
Jenifer you are so funny, like me, we just can't leave it alone even when we're telling others too. LOL Great job!
Tracy Lustick yes! :)
another "must have" that I didn't know I wanted till now. :)
Wow, these are really pretty. I kinda wish I wouldn't have invested in so many of the Zig clean color so I could have purchased 12 of these. The backgrounds you made are really pretty. Great cards.
***** i think the zig are more versitle!
I’d go for the Brushos, too. I’m not a zig fan. I’ve bought them and give them away. I prefer regular watercolor.
Jennifer, now that was truly A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !!! TFS
Loving this.
I guarantee it would be "a hot mess" if I attempted to use these watercolors. LOL! I really enjoyed this extremely informative video about this new hot item for water coloring. Thanks Jennifer...loved the cards
For me, you are the best ! Vielen Dank. Thank you very much.
A MUST get!!
very very nice....thank you so much
Beautiful!!! Would these permanently stain clothing, carpet, etc.
I really think the top of those bottles should be coloured with a similar colour Etoh marker!
Oh Jennifer you made me laugh with the “hot mess” comments. The cards are lovely. Thank you.
Love this! Can't wait to try it. Thumbs up ~ as always!!!!!!!!!!! :-)
So fun 💕
I get very frustrated with both watercolours and watercolour pencils as I just can't get the depth of colour I want for tonal values. Have ordered a set of 12 Brushos (my Christmas treat) and hope the vibrant pigments will really make a difference to my multi media work. Thanks for this demo.
great review. I have some brushos and they are fab and brilliant, I also have some bistre powders and they are more natural, like subdued (rusty) colors and they do not mix well, the brushos do andwith just the three main colors you can mix and get all the other colors. it's very messy and it doesn;t come ot of your clothes..ask me how i know :-(
Can I suggest you also look out for some videos by Eileen Godwin showing some more fun techniques with Brusho. Also, try using just the black - it's amazing, a myriad of colours, very surprising effects.
Wonder if these would work with texture paste? But more intense instead of diluted color when you use colored ink.
Must have luv these x
I saw someone add gum arabic to brusho powder to make a palette paint. Have you tried that? I love making brusho backgrounds and then selecting lifting portions of the color with water and bleach, but it never crossed my mind before today to make a thicker paint out of it with gum arabic.
lovely video and informativr
What do you use on the stamps to make the water "shy away" from the outlines??
Does the paint reactivate with water once it has dried?
how are these different than the marion smith color lab pigments?
Re: the lotus stamps -- does that mean Asian-themed products are coming back into fashion? An Asian-themed stamp set was the included gift with the July issue of Cardmaking & Papercraft magazine too. I hope so, because that is one of my favorite styles.
I saw a video on the same technique using Color Burst product. Do you think your Brusho product is better?
Vert Nice tank you. Merci beaucoup. 😍👍
Thanks for sharing!though i would've loved to see an example of each color in the 12 pack and how they compare to the Ken olver color bursts. From what i could tell the brusho colors had a lot more pigment for only a little more $....
Gavi S i likely will do another video in the future and i can show colors. i don't have the ken oliver (i tend to go with the "originals" when i can) but i can show the brusho.
Great, thanks!
Gavi S the color bursts are the same but you get much less.
and you can make both like i did - i got the whole collection of brusho colors from the UK and put about 1/4 of the contents of the jars in little plastic containers I got from SKS bottles the 04 size (www.sks-bottle.com/340c/fin22m.html) and for 7 bucks you have your brushos AND your squeeze ken oliver bottles. The amount of pigment you get in the brusho containers will last you for a lifetime.
But I would get the 24 colors - cost-wise it's a better deal.
I created a swatch and adhered on top of my jars - if you want to see the 24 colors, they are here: stampingbuzz.com/sunflower-in-brusho/
but i am a watercolor painter, so in this example, I used it as traditional wcs. they are VERY fun - but they WILL stain the boogeesus out of you. they were actually created as fabric paint, so if it gets to your clothes, it won't come off.
i suggest getting yourself an apron and "decorating" it with brusho like i did :D
it's addictive. I don't think I have made one card without it since the beginning of May!
Ariane M Thanks for this tip. I LOVE the look you get from this type of powered but I hate the fact that you have to poke a hole in the top of the jar. Something about the lack of control you lose as well as the ugly look of a random hole bothers me. If I had no other options I guess I would deal with it but knowing that Ken Oliver's Colorburt has a better delivery system intrigued me. That said, I don't want to spend more money than I have to and a good deal lis a good deal as well as getting two products for less than the price of one. LOVE it.
Ariane M this is awesome info,thanks ariane!:) i thought about switching the powder to another type of bottle so this is great....
I was impatient, so purchased a set of PearlEx pigment powders rather than waiting to order the Brusho brand. Have you worked with PearlEx, Jennifer, and if so, do you have a video on using them? How would you compare the two? By the way - I loved the effects you got with all your examples!
Diana Pohl pearlex is very different. sorry - no videos with them.
Hi Jennifer, your water colors always look so good. I don't use that much water on my water color paper, but it always warps. Any suggestions? I really enjoy your RUclipss!
Tape it down until it is dry and there will be no warping. ;-)
Cindy Solly tape it down while using it. or wet the back of the paper too.
Reminds me of the northern lights I use to see when I lived in Iceland.
I use RIT dye powder and tie dye powder which is a lot cheaper
I wonder if you get a similar effect by shaving inktense watercolor blocks and using the resulting dust in a similar way... But thank you for sharing, those dusts seem brilliant to use, very pretty results :)
GPhoenix08 kinda.
you would need to add some kind of filling - only color shavings will overload the water with pigment.
these crystals are about 1/4 clear.
maybe if yo shave some white crayons and mix you might get something just like it :)
Use what you have, give it a go! There will always be more products that are awesome, whilst you are deciding there is no reason you cannot be experimenting! I'd use some dollar store emery boards to get an ultra fine inktense powder in stead of a grater.
Ps love my inktense pencils :-)
I think Lindsay did a comparison btw
Simon Says Stamps no longer carries Brusho but Amazon does. 8/13/2018
This product reminds me of some pigmented powders my husband used on his model railroad layout years ago. Tell me, what is the difference between Brusho Color Crystals and "bister"?
Gloria Reynolds i have not used bister, but have heard they are similar
Gloria Reynolds The Bistre powders I have seen have all been earth colors.
arly helm more info on Bister here.
they are wood stains www.powertex.com.au/bister.html
Can you please tell how to purchase your brusho crystals please
Francess Mazzeo Corso Follow the link in the video description-DB= Dick Blick. Amazon has them, also.
Wow 🥰
Do they stain your fingers really bad? I bet they do!
lisaelaineeee it washes off eventually
Jennifer, I just bought a set of Bister powders and it seems like they are very similar to these. Have you tried Bisters yet? If so, do you think I could get the same results with them as you got with these Brushos? Soooo many products and so little $$$$$!!!!! mmmm, maybe some of your followers have an opinion about this,, too, and would share them with me.
Kathy Amstutz i ahve heard they are similar
Kathy Amstutz Hi Kathy, I have, for many years used powdered dyes (Dylon) to get exactly the same results. I'm not sure what the price is on the Brushos, so perhaps it would work out about the same, but if you look out for a good price on dyes, you can just buy 2 or 3 to try them out and add colours as you feel you need more. Hope this helps.
Rob K the Bisters are from Denmark and they are way more expensive than the Brushos, and they are a different kind of pigment as well... but getting the brushos from the UK was not hard - i got my set as a gift and afterwards i bought 2 as gifts. Dylon are the fabric ones?
Yes, I used the powdered Dylon fabric dyes, but they work perfectly on paper too.
thank you
