Hello everyone. Today is release day for the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit for June 2022. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog. This month’s kit is full of mermaid and underwater happiness. The large mermaid in the kit is so pretty and a dream to color.
Head under the sea with our June My Monthly Hero release. A beautiful mermaid greets you, with hair flowing and tail shimmering. She’s accompanied by a colorful fish and jelly, with seagrass and coral surrounding her. Pearls are an accent to this kit, with an image, messages, and embellishments uniting the theme. The kit is rounded out with a Reactive Ink palette and brush, perfect for watercoloring the images or creating gorgeous underwater backgrounds.
The kit will include:
• 6” x 8” Clear Stamp Set
• 8 Coordinating Frame Cuts
• Mermaid Reactive Palette Ink Pad
• Self Adhesive Pearl Gems
• Water Flow Brush
Kit Value: $72
Kit Cost: $34.99
Pre-order your kit today – we estimate kit shipping will begin Friday, June 10th and continue throughout the following week.
For today’s card I used a few of the Hero Arts Liquid Watercolors. You may have heard me mention before that I love watercoloring. It’s so peaceful for me. I also have a few tips to share with you on hot to create the clouds you see on my card above.
Let’s get into the tutorial. You can watch it here on my blog or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.
We will give away a $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday, June 12th at 11:59pm Pacific, and the winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog the following week. Next on the hop is Daniel. Have a great hop everyone and I’ll see you back here soon.

Judy Inukai says
What an amazing card. It was so much fun to watch the scene come to life while you colored. The clouds turned out great. I don’t think I’d add a sentiment to that at all. The recipient might want to frame it or at least put it on a desk or mantle to enjoy it.
