Please Leave A Comment!

For the next few months, I'll be super busy. Therefore, the posts from Go Brushes will probably be diminishing greatly. However, I'll definitely try to post and craft as often as possible. There just hasn't been much time since school started (:  Plus, whenever you visit my blog, please remember to leave a comment! I'll reply if I see it! Another thing; I know I said I was inspired by the dessert-themed bath item crafts and stuff and would post when I succeeded in a craft attempt- I haven't even gotten to that yet-sorry!

I'm part of this publication thing, and if any of you guys are looking for advertising opportunities at low costs (around $200), please leave a comment to let me know, so we can discuss the matter. Plus, just to let you know, any ad space purchase will contribute to an organization. Thanks for your consideration!

Thanks for reading, and see everyone next post! LEAVE A COMMENT! Thanks (: I'm kin of in a page view and comments competition with my siblings, so I'm counting on you guys.

Mini Cards

A lot of the cards I showcase here are usually just for display. To prevent wasting too much paper, I make mini cards instead of traditionally-sized cards. They're about 3 by 5" when unfolded, and half the size when folded to make a card. You can use the standard index card as a template. Plus, I usually only decorate the front of card with special paper, not the back or insides. Just thought to let you know.

Have a good day (surprisingly, I haven't ever used this greeting), and see you next post.

Gift/Card? Both!

Here's a cute card my sister designed that I adapted from:

Don't you just love the layout and design?

See you next post...until them...have another yummy day!

Hello Butterflies

When I saw this card in the Paper Crafts magazine, I just had to adapt. At the time, I didn't have any of the right patterned paper (ironically, I received a pack as a gift the next day), so I had to draw the background from white color pencil. The images were cut from random blue patterned paper scraps.
 Here's the front view:

And here's the view from the inside panel- when you unfold the card:


See everyone next post!

Who Wants Doughnuts?

My brother loves doughnuts so, as a card, I decided to replicate a doughnut box!

I don't know if you guys can see it, but under the "window," I attached a layer of clear plastic (its a part of a sandwich bag) to reassemble the clear plastic on a real doughnut box. For the doughnut images, I used Renovations' doughnut paper from Michaels'.

Here's the inside view:


Have a yummy day (am still eating those peppermint balls I mentioned Friday!) and see everyone next post!

Another Good Apples

As I've mentioned in my profile page, I have a thing for fruits. I've made fruit charms, cards, stuffed fruits, a fruit book, and fruit stickers-I'll be sure to post them all if I can find them! Anyway, here's another apple LOL card...
Best Thing: I like the side ribbons and the apple.

Worst Thing: There's something...that isn't quite right-maybe there's not enough colors...

LOL: I honestly don't know! LOL

P.S. That last LOL was a true laugh out loud.

I'm A Good Apple

Just another Learning Our Lessons card that I 've found to share...

Note: This card wasn't inspired from anything; it was actually the forst card I made without ideas from other cards. In a way, this was a milestone card for me.

Best Thing: The dots (made from a white-out pen mentioned in a Just Doodling post) makes the card more fun!

Worst Thing: There is an unnecessary item on the ribbonline of the card.

LOL: Not all cards need bows!

Have a fun day, and see everyone next post!
