Waffle Flower April Release Blog Hop

Welcome to the Waffle Flower April Release Blog Hop! I’m happy to be hopping with the folks from Waffle Flower to show you all the fun new stuff awaiting you on the Waffle Flower website! Be sure to check out each stop in today’s blog hop for fun, inspiration, and chances to win some of these new release goodies!

Waffle Flower-Sunburst Foil Plate, Oversized Hugs Foil, Hey There Foil Plate

My first card features the Sunburst Foil Plate. I adhered thick strips of solid colored cardstock to a panel and then foiled the Sunburst with gold foil. I die cut a circle window to create a shaker filled with clear sequins.

For the sentiment I used the new Hey There Foil Plate & coordinating die with gold foil onto white cardstock.

My next card uses the Sunburst Hot Foil Plate again. This time I foiled it onto white cardstock and masked off select angles with scrap paper to blend color using distress inks. I die cut another circle window for a shaker filled with clear confetti.

Waffle Flower-Sunburst Foil Plate, Oversized Hugs Foil

For the sentiment I used the new Oversized Hugs Foil Plate along with the coordinating die.

    I love shaker cards!! Thanks for sharing your ideas with all of us. It’s so amazing to me how the designers can all be given the same tools, yet everyone comes up with different designs. Really stretches the use of our stamps/dies/foils/stencils/etc.

    Hi, Laura B –
    Your cards are both beautiful! I really like them both and although they have similarities, each definitely has its own personality. The “hello friend” is like super-glam color coordination and the “hugs” one is like a light touch of sweet rainbow goodness. Love ’em both! WF has such cool items! Love that foil plate!! TFS –

Would love to win as I do not have anything by waffleflower yet. I’ve been wanting their stencil mat! Thank you for the opportunity!
