I have two cards to share with you today featuring this month’s kit and one of the Extraordinary Extras.
The first card focuses on the Card Kit of the Month. This was a really fun stamp set where I wanted to use all the images from the main stamp set and I did just that! I went ahead and arranged almost all the images onto a card panel along with one of the sentiments. I stamped my card panel with Intens-ified Black Ink. You definitely can use the coordinating die cuts in the set but I chose to stamp and mask off the images. I wanted to use the Holiday Treats Cling to stamp the background behind all the images. I stamped that with Moss ink. Then all I needed to do was color it up!
My second project focuses on the Cling Stamp of the Month, which I paired with an older stamp set called Winter Town Cheer Stamps. Admittedly, this cling stamp has a lot going on, however, I really didn’t want to color up every last bit — imagine how many markers I would be using! I decided to first create a holiday rainbow card panel. The colors include Red, Orange, Yellow and Green, and I pulled out the cardstocks Kiwi, Canary, Papaya, and Cherry. I trimmed down some strips and adhered them to an A2 card panel. Then I went ahead an stamped the Cling Stamp with Intens-ified Black Ink. I used coordinating alcohol markers to color in the background, but made sure they were just a TAD darker so the images would pop. To finish off the card, I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment from Winter Town Cheer on Pitch Black Cardstock using White Embossing Powder.
Thanks for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed the two cards I shared today using some of the new Hero Studio collection. Hope you were inspired to create!

If you’ve been to Disneyland or DisneyWorld, you’ll know exactly which ride inspired this card… it’s one of my favorite rides to go on at dusk or night time. The lights make it so pretty and I think the card is a perfect reflection of that!

Go sports! Happy Sunday — are you a sports person? I enjoy a ton of sports and honestly, it’s the best background noise for a day of crafting. Unless it’s an incredible game, my attention is always split. This card encompasses all the sports — so it works for many recipients.

I love to pull out some of my old Halloween tricks — just because it doesn’t get old. I love a moving element and this spider is too cute… it won’t spook you right?

Sometimes I look at an image and think sure it can be used as the main focal image — but everyone is going to do that — How do we change it up? Christmas trees are easily a focal image but I wanted to stamp it off the card panel for a different look! I also was in no mood to mask especially for these small little images so I chose to stamp them carefully or to color up the overlapped lines with a darker marker. Lazy stamping can work!
Reminder! This is a stamp set that is part of Stamptember — once it’s gone it’s gone.

Card fronts aren’t really my thing — I like to create my own but sometimes it’s a quick way to make a card. It works out well especially when it’s for holiday cards and you need quite a few. This card front set is really pretty though, it kinda encapsulates the beauty of holiday lights and I love it.

I love fall — the jewel tones are just cozy and up my alley but I also am digging this dusty fall palette that google inspired me with! I just love how I was able to incorporate it with the stencil and then the die cut word.

Sometimes lights just really make a card magical and this card takes it a bit more literally. I love how this came together and it was relatively easy with a bit of scene building and ink blending.
