A couple weeks ago, I used this same embossing folder but with copic markers — it was so extra. Here, it’s an easier way to add some dimension to an embossing folder – Ink blending! It just amps it up! I love how this turned out.

I always forget to pull out my brayer to create easy backgrounds … ok, to be transparent, it took me awhile to pick out the colors I wanted and realized I needed green for the grass so the dinosaurs could roam the earth. You just gotta make sure to swipe that brayer back and forth so the inks blend together nicely.

I love the no line look but it does take a lot of time to achieve when you color — but with solid stamping, it does make it a bit easier and you can add some dimension by adding darker colors on the edges of the image.

You don’t have to stick with one type of sentiment — I love when you can mix and match die cuts with stamped sentiments. It really stretches out the look of the sentiments.

When you have smaller images, there’s a lot you can do with them but my favorite thing is creating multiple mini scenes! I use the square die cut to create that anchor for the images.

I was going to do a bit of ink blending on top of this 3D embossing folder — but instead, I decided to be extra and used my copic markers to add color and extra dimension on this card.

Hi crafty friends! Today, we are hopping along to introduce the February 2025 Hero Studio collection from Hero Arts and remember, there’s 6 subscription options: 1) Card Kit of the Month 2) Clear Set + Dies of the Month 3) Fancy Die of the Month 4) Layering Stencil Set of the Month 5) Cling of the Month and 6) Whole Studio (all 5 in one!).
Let’s start by taking a closer look at the February Card Kit of the Month.

Includes:
There’s a ton of inspiration and the full blog lineup can be found on the Hero Arts blog. You should be coming from Jennifer Kotas‘s blog and your next stop will be Charlene Madrid. The full blog list will also be updated below!

I have two cards to share with you today featuring the Card Kit of the Month and the Clear Stamps & Dies of the Month.


The first card focuses on the Card Kit of the Month . This Card Kit contains a fun layering stamp set to create a border of floral tulips. I picked a bunch of Hero Hues to do some stamping with the tulips layered stamps: Forever Green, Fresh Lawn, Orchid, and Grape Juice. I decided to use the layered stamped image on the top portion of my card and the Thank You sentiment that comes in the stamp set fits perfectly. I also decided to add a supporting sentiment (my friend) on a strip of white cardstock. I wanted to add in more of the purple color by adding Eggplant cardstock at the bottom part of the card.

My second project focuses on the Clear Stamps & Dies of the Month, Lovely Flowers. This one is a pretty simple one. I stamped a variety of the flowers using Intens-ified Black Ink at the bottom part of my card panel and then I stamped the sentiment with Moss ink. Then I ink blended the top of card panel with Ultra Pink core ink, using the Large Ink blending brush. It’s a simple and pretty card that you definitely can mass produce.

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!
