Hi crafty friends! Today, we are hopping along to introduce the May 2024 My Monthly Hero Kit from Hero Arts and this one is a bit more special as we’re celebrating Hero Art’s 50th Anniversary! There’s a ton of inspiration and the full blog lineup can be found on the Hero Arts blog. You should be coming from Charlene Madrid‘s blog and your next stop will be Kailash Naidoo. The full blog list will be updated below! This month’s collection focuses on peace, love and kindness! Here is a peek at the Classic Kit:

The Classic Kit includes:

• Floral Cake Clear Stamp Set, 4″ x 6″
• 11 Floral Cake Coordinating Dies
• 6 Sheets Luxe White Watercolor Paper, 5.5″ x 8.5″
• Contour Ink Pad (AF468)
• Flat Water Flow Brush (PD105)
• Watercolor Palette (HT227)
• Ink Swatch Palette (a sheet that has 8 colors of watercolor paints in our Core Ink colors)
  
  Classic Special (50th Anniversary) Gifts:
• Message Clear Stamp Set, 3” x 4”
• 3 Coordinating Dies
• Yay Fancy Die

and the Premium Kit (along with the Classic kit items) includes:

• Balloon Background Cling Stamp, A2
• Champagne Sequins (CH306)
• Birthday Enamel Dots (CH332)
  
  Premium Special (50th Anniversary) Gifts:
• Yay Clear Stamp & Coordinating Die
• Congrats Fancy Die

I have two cards to share with you today featuring this month’s kit and add ons!

The first card focuses on the Premium Kit. I immediately fell in love with the Balloon Background Cling Stamp — it is so versatile. You can use it for birthdays, celebrations, new babies, and more! I picked out a few fun colors to smoosh ink with: Taffy, Lemon Drop, Blue Raspberry, Splash, Blue Hawaii, and Thistle reactive Inks. I used a piece of plastic I had to pick up the ink after I put it on a glass surface and sprayed a little bit of water. Using these on top of the Luxe White Watercolor paper, it created a really colorful background. I used the Congrats Fancy Die to cut out the sentiment from this inky background and removed the border. I matted it on Pitch Black Cardstock to really make the Congrats Fancy Die pop!

My second project features one of this month’s add ons dies, the Hooray Birthday Cover Plate. I pulled out a rainbow array of cardstock: Cherry, Papaya, Canary, Kiwi, Peacock, Amethyst, and Ultra Pink. I trimmed down the cardstock to half inch strips. I covered an A2 panel with double sided adhesive and covered the panel with strips diagonally. I used the Hooray Birthday Cover Plate and die cut it using Black Glitter cardstock. I added the die cut panel right over the rainbow striped panel so all those colors pop through. It’s so fun right?!

Hi crafty friends! Today, we are hopping along to introduce the March 2024 My Monthly Hero Kit from Hero Arts. There’s a ton of inspiration and the full blog lineup can be found on the Hero Arts blog. You should be coming from Rachel Kleinman‘s blog and your next stop will be Seeka. The full blog list will be updated below! This month’s collection focuses on peace, love and kindness! Here is a peek at the Classic Kit:

The Classic Kit includes:

• Clear Stamp Set, 6” x 8”
• Frame Cuts
• Cover Plate Window Die
• 2 Rub-On Transfer Sheets
• 3 Ink Cubes (Cherry, Periwinkle & Deep Ocean)

and the Premium Kit (along with the Classic kit items) includes:

• Clear Stamp Set, 4” x 6”
• Frame Cuts
• Translucent Pinks Hero Hues Enamel Dot

I have two cards to share with you today featuring this month’s kit and add ons!

The first card focuses on the Classic Kit. I’ll admit that I’m not a big fan of solid stamps because my preference is just to color but one that builds a scene in this sketchy kind of way along with silhouettes is something I can get behind. I used the 6″ x 8″ stamp set along with the Periwinkle, Deep Ocean, Cherry and INTENS-ified black ink pads to stamp this scene up. You can create any type of scene you’d like and interchange all the silhouette images. It’s so fun and easy! I also couldn’t resist using the Rub-On Transfer Sheets to add a little flair to the card. It reminds me of those old asian paintings with the scene and then the writing over it — exactly what this card looks like.

My second project features a one of this month’s add ons set, the Ramen Bundle and the Origami Paper Bold Prints. I love split card designs, it’s usually a great way to use up pattern paper or add some interest to a card. I stamped the Origami Paper Bold Prints on both white and Cherry Cardstock using the Cherry Core Ink. I used half of it on one side, half on another side. Then I stamped some of the images and sentiments from the Ramen Bundle using Cranberry Core Ink and placed them on my card panel.

Here’s a little video for this card above:

I have two cards to share with you today featuring this month’s kit and add ons!

The first card focuses on the Classic Kit. I love floral stamp sets and this one was such a fun one. I love how it looks and I thought it would be such a pretty background if I stamped it around the center of the card. I stamped it the image with Green Apple on Kiwi cardstock. This turned out really pretty!

My second project features a one of this month’s add ons set, the Cosmos & Lavender bundle. I just love the florals and decided to create a diagonal border of the floral clusters. I stamped and colored them in copic markers.

Hi crafty friends! Today, we are hopping along to introduce the January 2024 My Monthly Hero Kit from Hero Arts. There’s a ton of inspiration and the full blog lineup can be found on the Hero Arts blog. You should be coming from Channin‘s blog and your next stop will be Natasha. The full blog list will be updated below! This month’s collection focuses on letters and watercolor pencils! Here is a peek at the Classic Kit:

The Classic Kit includes:

• 5 Floral Color Layering Stencils
• Heart Fancy Window Die
• Love You Fancy Word Dies
• Love Messages Clear Stamp Set, 4″ x 6″
• 6 Sheets of Camel Watercolor Paper, 5″ x 7″
• 3 Core Ink Cubes – Moss, Azalea, Summer Sky

and the Premium Kit (along with the Classic kit items) includes:

• 10 Flower & Leaf Fancy Dies
• Gold Leaf Flakes
• Sparkle Clear Lacquer Pen
• Pink Gold Metallic Spray

I have two cards to share with you today featuring this month’s kit and add ons!

The first card focuses on the Classic Kit and one item from the Premium Kit. I created the base of my card using the 5 Floral Color Layering Stencils using the following Hero Arts Reactive Ink colors: Thistle, Grape Slush, Berry Smoothie, Pool Party, and Blue Hawaii. This turned out really pretty!

Then I decided to use the Love You Fancy Word die. Originally, I wanted to do an eclipse card but I thought the background was a bit busy and I wanted the words to really stand out. I die cut a couple of the words, stacked them and used Pitch Black cardstock right on top. I also stamped out a supporting sentiment from the Love Messages Stamp set. To finish off the card, I used the Sparkle Clear Lacquer Pen right over the Love You Fancy Word Die to add a bit of sparkle.

My second project features a one of this month’s add ons set, I Love U Stamp & Cut XL along with the Ode to Andy Warhol Script Bold Prints background stamp. I saw the font for the I Love U Stamp & Cut XL set and immediately thought about subway art — bold handwriting over delicate font. I first stamped the Ode to Andy Warhol Script Bold Prints in Cotton Candy core ink, and then I used the I Love U Stamp & Cut XL set to stamp over the background on the top and bottom, leaving room for the coordinating dies in the middle of the card.
