Welcome to the blog hop to celebrate the new release from Waffle Flower Crafts! Today I’m sharing a fun die cut card project and I’m also using the brand new Shader Brushes to add depth and dimension to my die cuts.

These new brushes give you so much control over where to apply ink! Plus, they are gorgeous to look at. Here I have mine stored in the Waffle Flower Brush Holders.

Here is a video to walk you through this project:

Kathleen says
Love your card..the chicken foot remark had me on the floor laughing! Thanks 😊
Patricia Wilson says
You are so funny. Long live “chicken feet”. Anyhow, this card was so pretty and usually don’t go for die cuts of flowers but what you did was great. Also, wanted you to know that watching you and your blending helped allot. I blended a front panel of a card yesterday with four Distress Oxides and it came out wonderful. Thanks for all you do and how much you teach us.
Connie says
These brushes are different from what everyone is using. They would be interesting to try.

Lori Spitzer says
This is a GORGEOUS card. Love the colors. Love the new brushes – or I will when I get them. You’re right… sometimes you can’t unsee things. I can’t think of a specific example, but that is so true. Your card looked better once you did the surgery … and I am going to get me some “Un du.”

Cathy, you have done wonderfully with the new brushes from Waffle Flower. I need to get another job for all the new goodies being released at this great company. I’ve always like Waffle Flower, I use their glue bottles all the time, in my opinion, it’s the best glue on the market. Anyway, these new products are must haves to me especially those perfect shading brushes. Blessings!
