Clarity Brushes for Distressing

Pretty Pink Posh: Clarity Brushes for Distressing

Good morning Pretty Pink Posh friends! Heather here to share a couple cards using the Clarity Stencil Brushes – along with a video review of them. I was super excited to recently get my hands on a set of them – I have been seeing them used so much, that I was really curious how they worked.

If you aren’t familiar with them, they are brushes that can be used as an alternative to foam ink blenders with beautiful results! I paired them up with the adorable Fox Friends Stamp Set and coordinating Fox Friends Dies to create one layer stenciled panels. I was originally going to just make one layer cards, but they kind of grew into this by the time I finished!

Here is the video sharing how I used the stencils – and with my first voice over of my video (I was a bit nervous – please forgive the soft voice and occasional humming or losing my place!)

After the video I colored all the foxes in with some Copic Markers – I used Warm Grays – W00, W1, W3, and W5, and Blush R20, added my frames, and stitched with my sewing machine around the outside edges to finish them off a little. Added some jute twine, then attached with foam adhesive to colored card bases to finish off.

Here is a close up look at each one – on this first one I also used the Scallop Circles Dies to frame my fox.

For this next one, I used the two largest Stitched Hexagon Dies to create a frame.

And on this last one, after my stenciling, I cut a fresh Scallop Ovals die to frame the fox.

And here they are all together – aren’t those colors so pretty together? They remind me of a rainbow of sherbet!

  1. I have had these brushes for a while now and they are absolutely AMAZING! I use them all the time and love that I can use them for blending or to get an airbrushed effect! They seem like they are expensive until you actually get your hands on them and realize how amazing they are! Then you realize they are a great value!
    I love your delicious cards! The blending is wonderful and I love the colors! TFS!

  2. Awesome cards and video, wishing the those brushes for a while now hope to get them soon

  3. Great job on your first voice over! I really like my Clarity brushes too, I’m a bit heavy handed with the foam blenders so until I get better with them I use the Clarity brushes. Your cards are adorable!

  4. Your video was just fine. The fox cards are sooooo cute. Thanks for sharing with us.

  5. Thank you, Heather! Your cards are so lovely and sweet! I purchased those brushes a few months ago and needed to see this to give me the inspiration to use them!! Hugs, Darnell

  6. I love your cards. So inspirational and fun to look at. I love to embellish with sequins, ribbon and spritz of glitter
