Hero Arts MMH August 2023 Countdown

August 4, 2023

Hey everyone. Welcome to the Hero Arts MMH August 2023 countdown. This month’s kits will inspire you to get out and travel this summer. It’s full of beautiful images and dies along with coordinating sentiments.

Hero Arts MMH August 2023

Also this month you can really stretch your imagination with adding in some mix media elements to your card. For my card today I used the new Hero Arts Two-Tone Metallic Sprays with the Hero Arts Liquid Watercolors and Hero Arts Brass embossing powder.

I used to be very uncomfortable with mix media but now I feel like I can manage it.

My tip is to just not overthink it. Use products you are familiar with and take it from there. Then you can explore adding more products and techniques. See you back here on Monday for the full release. Take care!

    Beautiful card!. Love how you’ve matched the outline colour of the die-cut flowers to the card colour.
    Also love your mixed-media accents.

    I love the first card from the Premium Kit sneak peek. To the the colors show the transition from summer to fall. I know that it’s meant to encourage summer travel, but with school almost back in session I am ready for fall.

    Such a bright and cheerful card. I like the way you colored what would have been white edges around the die cuts so now they blend in with the background. Helps keep the focus on those lovely florals.

Who doesn't love an adorable mushroom stamp set? T Who doesn't love an adorable mushroom stamp set? The Hero Arts Hello Fungi stamp set is perfect for stepping into your fall card. With the beautiful line art of this stamp set, you can easily color this with your Copic markers or do what I did, and color it with your color pencils.
