Today’s is week four and my final video in my series on Brusho watercolor crystals. The technique I’m teaching you today uses salt. Yes, I said salt! I’ll walk you through the process of using both table salt and Epsom salt to create unique textured backgrounds. The only difficult part to this technique is waiting for them to dry. ((smile)) Although the video doesn’t include my completed cards (I had to wait for the samples to dry), I’ve included pictures of them in this blog post. Be sure to scroll down to see them along with the supplies for these cards.
All the products you see can be purchased in my online store where I offer exclusive and generous ordering REWARDS with a $25+ product order. Click on the picture below for details.

This collage is perfect for your Pinterest board. It’s a great reference when you’re ready to give this technique a try!

Hi Linda! Glad you like them. Thanks for stopping to leave me a comment.
The technique is interesting.i want to know if this technique will be useable with silk paints over the silk fabric.
Gosh, I wish I could tell you for certain but I’d venture to say yes. I would suggest testing a sample to be sure. I’d love it if you’d report back and let me know. Thanks for watching!
