Hello and welcome! We’re blog hopping today to celebrate the Hero Arts March release. If you’re not already a monthly subscriber, be sure to check out all of the Hero Studio subscriptions options!
My first card features the Card Kit of the Month. This kit has bows galore and a gorgeous cover plate that creates a streamer effect that is perfect to frame a celebratory sentiment. I blended Amethyst, Ultra Pink, Pale Tomato, Dandelion, Green Apple, and Cornflower Core Inks across a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of Dove White cardstock. Then I used the cover die the cut another 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of of white cardstock as well as a panel of Paradise cardstock, making sure to keep the large center fall-out piece from the Paradise panel. I glued the white cover piece over the ink-blended background and then glued the Paradise fall-out piece into the center opening.
I heat embossed and die the happy sentiment three times using white embossing powder and Paradise cardstock. I also heat embossed the smaller sentiment onto the card front. Using foam tape, I adhered the three die-cut sentiments to the card front and then I glued the card front to a card base.
It’s Your Day
My second card features the super fun Layer Stencils of the Month: It’s Your Day set. Just a few easy-to-line-up stencil layers and your choice of colors creates a fun full-A2-sized card front! For this quick card, I blended a rainbow of colors over the stencils and onto a 4.25″ x 5.5″ panel of white cardstock: Amethyst, Ultra Pink, Pale Tomato, Papaya, Dandelion, Green Apple, Cornflower, and Summer Sky. Then I used die from the Rounded Rectangles Infinity dies to trim the panel. To assemble the card, I used foam tape to adhere the stenciled panel to an Ultra Pink card base.
