Crafty Girl Altered Paintbrushes

Hi friends and happy Friday to you! Linsey [1] here today sharing my latest altered project and I hope you enjoy it! The new Crafty Girl [2] collection is amongst my most favorite to date! It covers everything from scrapbooking and stamping to knitting, crochet, sewing, sketch art and even planning! Trust me, this collection is a must have for all makers alike! Take a look and see what I created with the awesome Crafty Girl collection! 

As you can see, I did something different with each of my paintbrushes. After painting them with several layers of white gesso, they are now ready to decorate! The narrow brush seemed a perfect shape for building my very own "crafty girl" upon, so that's what I did. She is so stylish with her one-of-a-kind custom outfit made from Combo Stickers [3] and accessories to match! No crafty girl is complete without her tote and favorite beverage! 

A bit of sparkle was added to crafty girls hair tie and washi belt with mini gems. She even wears a pair of cute pink enamel dot earrings. 

The wider brush was a great base panel to build a crafty scene upon. I think it would make a great gift for a crafty friend! How about you?

I hope you like my altered crafty girl paintbrushes and I hope you've been inspired to make something fabulous with this dynamite Simple Stories [4] collection too! Have a great day and until next time, happy crafting!
