- In this video, I will show you one of the EASIEST Way to Add Color to Die Cuts! I’ll also share a GREAT HACK and a few tips along the way. I now color all my delicate die cut flowers this way to avoid wrinkles or tears in my die cuts. How many times have you had to toss your die cut because you applied a little too much pressure when shading it! ME! #diecuts #colordiecuts #hacks
The tool I use here is a little unconventional but it’s so handy and one I will reach for amzn.to/3zdCX9v more often. Since I bought this in a store and it’s not readily available, you can easily find them on line. Here is a similar model to the one I use in the video in case your interest has piqued.
***NEW!!!*** I found this brush that is very similar to what I’m using in this video: amzn.to/3zdCX9v
This is the link to a very similar brush that is reasonably priced: amzn.to/32IZL4h
This power makeup brush has really helped me with wrist issues and if you SHARE this video, perhaps we can get the crafting industry to manufacture these for us crafters who experience some pain on occasion! What do you think?

Walking away is the best advice! I am very hard on myself and if it’s not perfect I feel like it’s not good enough. If I walk away for an hour or so I usually can see the beauty in what I’ve created and/or come up with ideas to improve my project. Thanks for so many great tips!
YES!!!! I have to remind myself to walk away more times than I care to admit! 😊 Thank you for the kind comment and for watching. ♥️
That is so my experience also!
I would never have thought of cutting layered flowers to make multiple cards. Love your designs - the cards are beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing - I have a few new things to try out.
Thank you much. I’ll have to give this another go soon! Thanks for watching!
I really love your approach to greeting card design. It meant so much for me to hear you say, 'use what you have.' Sometimes, I feel this compulsion to run out and buy the latest dies or stamps when I have plenty already! Thank you.
Thanks so much, Allicia! I, too,fall into that rabbit hole of purchasing everything I see and have that ‘I need it all’ syndrome! I recently purged a lot of craft items I no longer have a passion for. So, now, I promised myself to try and use what I have. Stay tuned for an upcoming video where I will be using a lot of products I already have in my stash. Thanks for watching and commenting! ♥️
I love this idea of making 4 at a time. I loved them all thank you so much for the great tips, oh the brush is a awesome idea sense I have arthritis and my hand start to hurt this would be a great help
Love them all
Love the technique demonstrations!
I loved your cards and some of the suggestions . I don’t think I would be courageous enough to cut my work up into 4 separate card fronts. You did a great job. Loved all of them
Aw, thanks! ♥️

You gave me several ideas. The leaves are a super idea.
Thanks so much and thanks for watching, too! 🥰
I love the idea of creating the flowers onto a big sheet and cutting it down! The dimension on these cards is amazing. Very little else needed. Thanks for sharing.

Lovely cards.

Love the cards and the techniques you used!! I especially love #2&3 (from the left). Thx for sharing, from new subbie in Texas.💕
Thanks for subbing and for the compliment! 🥰
I loved your cards and the way you made them all together. I also do my blending as you did and find it really easy. Thanks for sharing your mistake as well.
I’m glad you found it helpful! 😉
I would love to try that makeup brush! Very pretty cards!
I hope you try it! So fun!
Excellent suggestion for adding color. And when you cut those beautiful flowers? I thought “ oh, no! What is she doing?” I did not see that coming. I love your brilliant idea, though. I would have never come up with that. I’m going to have to try it out.
I’m so glad you found it helpful! 💕
What a great video, thank you.
You’re so very welcome! ♥️
Beautiful cards and great tips!!! TYFS 🇺🇸❤️🇺🇸
You are so welcome!
thank you so much for sharing. The idea of stepping away from your project for a while really works it has saved many of my projects from being trashed. Blessings
Same for me, Yolanda! It gives a new perspective and often leads to something much more beautiful. Thanks for watching ! ♥️
Great technique 👍❤️
Thanks so much!!! ♥️
Yes, I will try this! Excellent tips for producing more than one card at a time! Corrective lenses, Ha! I can't choose a favorite, they are all beautiful. That brush looks like a fun thing to try. Thank you for sharing!

I very much enjoyed your explanation of your thought process. Making 4 cards at once---Genius! I will give the pre-blending technique a try. It makes perfect sense. Hope the renovation project is going well---better yet---done.
