The EASIEST Way to Add Color to Die Cuts | Plus a GREAT HACK!

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

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!

I am definitely going to try inking the paper before I cut! Your cards are so pretty !

[AlliciaB]

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.

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.

[fvgsweetsandeats]

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

[barbaraarmstrong]

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

[cathithorpe]

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.

Could you imagine, how expensive that would be if craft companies started selling a motorized blending brush. Beautiful cards!

[sherryrichards]

This is such wonderful tips. Thank you so much for sharing. I have the worst time blending where I am happy, the blending brush and doing it before is great.

[beckyhomecky]

I was cracking up at your Corrective Lenses joke and that the recipient doesn't notice our mistakes! So true! Thanks for the video!

[mangonicci]

Excellent tutorial, gorgeous cards and priceless advice....always walk away instead of throw away 😊 I absolutely LOVE the way you used a grid for die cuts and gorgeous blending...in the end 😂. I have to admit it looked rather dodgy 👀 at one point but WOW you pulled it off. Just subscribed ❤

[SharonLuska]

[TRsPlace]

Yes I would definitely try this type of brush!
💛TR

[mclenachan]

These cards are stunning and your moments of self-reflection, and tips are so helpful! Thank you!

[mariposafria]

So true. Sometimes all I can see are the little mistakes, but the people who get my cards think they are just fab.

[moniteo]

I appreciate your resourceful brain so much🥰🥰🥰

[heartieone]

Thank you for keeping the hiccups you faced when cutting and recreating your panels. It's good to see what could go wrong and how they can be fixed. GReaT idea about creating grid patterns! Thanks for sharing it all Kathya!

[mzp]

The cards look fab! There are some good 'hacks' in this video that I have never seen before. One panel cut 4 ways-brilliant! Also I like the idea of having an electronic blender. Thanks for sharing.

[lindam]

Gorgeous cards! Thanks for admitting you make mistakes like us amateurs, and for the tip to put our messed up cards aside and come back for a fresh look the next day!

[janiajohnson]

Your cards are stunning! This a great technique that I can’t wait to try! Thank you for sharing every step even how to fix the petals and how to be patient with ourselves as we create 😊
