Uses for a Stamp Brush

The more I use stamp brushes, the more uses I find for them! Stamp brushes can be used to create decorative shapes or for shapes that you use over and over again, like a logo or copyright info.

Here's some of my favorite uses:

To make a circle. Use a monoline brush as big as you can get it to make a circle stamp brush. The circle can be used as a template for creating wreaths or round lettering.
Using that same technique, you can create the best eraser brush ever! Make a giant one to erase everything in one go!
I made a paint swatch stamp to use when I make color palettes to share. Best use of a stamp brush ever!
For decorative purposes. For instance, you can make an intricate leafy design to add to designs.
A stamped texture brush. You can add the perfect splotchy texture with a stamp brush or a texture.
For templates. I just purchased this character creator pack and I'm finding it invaluable for creating people. Especially because I suck at drawing people. Use it on it's own layer, reduce the opacity, create a new layer to trace over the template. Ta da! Decent looking person!!
