Hero Arts MMH March 2021

March 8, 2021

Hero Arts MMH March 2021 kit is now available. This kit is full of literary images to make you want to curl up with a good book. Pre-order your kit today – we estimate kit shipping will begin Friday, March 12th and continue throughout the following week.

 

Kit Contents

6″ x 8″ Clear Stamp Set
7 Coordinating Frame Cuts
Reactive Pallet Ink Pad
Water Flow Brush
6 Bookmarks, Pure White Cardstock
Rainbow Hemp Cord, 6 meters
Kit Value $73
Kit Cost $34.99

For my card today I used the image of the woman reading a book. I think this image is so sweet and it looks like me when I’m nestled into my corner chair deeply invested in a good novel. I always need birthday cards and I love that this kit has a birthday sentiment. Coloring my image with Copic markers and making a little scene was super easy using this image.

 

I kept the card really simple so the image was the main focal point. Using the Woodgrain stencil from Hero Arts I added just a slight bit of texture on my Cherry cardstock. I love the softness it gives the background paper without adding too much of a distraction.

 

 

 

Hero Arts will be giving away one $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday March 14th at 11:59 pm PST and a winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog the following week. Next on the hop is Daniel. The entire list of participants is listed below.

    I like the color choices in this kit. I can see them being used not only throughout the kit but beyond.
    The stamp set looks so versatile that it can be used to make many different cards and none the same.

    Dana- your rendering and card design are show-stoppingly elegant. Great call on the background to allow the reader to take center stage. (And your coloring of the images- which you,skilled lady, call “super easy,” I say is out of this world) Your perfectly matched drops were the icing on the cake– or should I say sprinkles? Thanks for sharing your talents on the hop!
