This is usually how my morning goes. I launch Firefox and go through my bookmarks – which mostly covers fun, lighthearted blogs from all over. I go through each of them so I end up with about eight tabs on my Firefox window. And it wasn’t even 9am yet! So anyway, I found out that my morning browsing will be considerably organized if I just signed up with Bloglovin’. After a few days of reading other users’ reviews, I took the plunge and signed up. Claimed my blog, even. I was surprised at how easy it is now to read all my favorite blogs (I know, I sound like a celebrity endorser but no, I didn’t get paid for this. And I’m no celebrity!). Click on the image below to go to my Bloglovin’ page so you can follow the Happy Hands Project.
As you can see, I even made an art work just to announce my new discovery. To think that I’m pretty late to the party on this one. I was experimenting with Photoshop brushes today and ended up making three watercolor circles that can be used, well, anywhere, actually! These are high resolution, good quality brushes! Here are just some of my ideas as to where I can end up using them:
- A personalized notecard
- A desktop wallpaper
- Stickers in different colors
- Gift tags
My advise is this – go crazy with your brushes! Experiment with colors, play with different layer styles. Just make sure you use different layers in Photoshop for every click of that brush. Just layer it. You can thank me later. If you need help on where to save the file onto Photoshop, this is helpful. For more lovely (and free!) brushes, plus how-to videos, check out this post on Creature Comforts. These are probably just about everything you need to get started.
Now it’s time to download the Happy Hands Project watercolor brush pack!
As always, for everything that’s on the house, these brushes are for personal use only and cannot be sold or re-distributed. I would appreciate linking back to my post if you would feature this on your blog, and not host them on your own server. Whew! I just had to get that out. Thanks for reading!
Hullo! We’re following each other on Instagram, and I thought I’d drop in to say hi. I love craft blogs! Will be popping in here too. 🙂
Hi Evelyn! I also dropped by your blog. Looking forward to your ‘mommyhood’ posts. It’s great seeing you here! 🙂
Love these! Just downloaded them to make an art piece for our blog. Thanks for sharing these!
That’s great to know, Kim! I hope to see how you’ve played around with the brushes. 🙂
Thank you so much! Normally I dont comment on these, but I just downloaded and started playing with them- AMAZING! I just had to say thank you and that I REALLY appreciate it! 🙂
Thanks Kimberly! Layering and playing with the opacity and layer styles will have a lot of other effects. So glad you enjoyed the freebie!
