As promised here is another list of awesome Photoshop brushes. This post will focus on my favorite Photoshop brushes for swirls, swooshes and floral elements. If you missed my first list on My 15 Favorite Grunge Brushes, you should definitely check that out as well!

Here’s the Swirls, Swooshes and Florals List

Floral Swirl
A stunning set of high res floral swirls. Perfect for floral patterns and backgrounds.

Swirls Brush Pack
Swirl shapes courtesy of the brand new site, Brush King. Simple, but useful.

Swirls and Flourishes
More from Brush King. 23 beautiful floral flourishes and swirls. Awesome for borders and corners.

Swirl Brushes
11 decorative brushes. Interesting curved lines, dotted lines and decorative elements.

Seleneheart Flourish Brushes
These brushes are on the small side, but the are beautifully detailed. Awesome for adding flourish elements to your design.

Flourish Mask
These mix in a lot of grunge elements and could very easily have slipped into my grunge brush list. I love using these to mask out a slick looking grunge flourish border.

Swirls and Flowers
14 gorgeous flourishes, flowers and decorative elements. These are fantastic!

Floral Deco Brushes
More cool brushes that I found in the Deviant Art design community. Stunning floral decorative brushes.
