Tim Holtz Distress Blending Brushes

Blend smooth ink backgrounds and stencil shaded effects with precision

Retractable bristles solve the eternal brush storage problem while giving you precise control over application pressure. Twist the barrel to extend firm natural fibers for broad background blending, then retract them partially for concentrated shading work or stencil details. This adjustability means one brush handles both expansive washes and controlled edge work without switching tools mid-technique.

The firm bristle construction matters specifically for Distress Inks and Oxides, softer brushes can't move these concentrated pigments effectively across surfaces. These natural fibers grip and distribute product evenly, creating the smooth gradients and atmospheric effects that make distress techniques work. Apply ink directly to paper for weathered backgrounds, or work through stencils to build dimensional shadows and highlights. The bristles maintain their spring through repeated use, resisting the splaying that ruins cheaper blending tools.

Compact retracted size means they actually stay organized rather than rolling loose in drawers. Seven brushes fit neatly in a Mini Distress Ink Storage Tin, keeping your most-used colors accessible without cluttering your workspace. Pack of 2 provides immediate backup or lets you dedicate one brush per color family.
