Welcome to the Hero Arts Holiday 2023 Catalog Release Blog Hop. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog. It’s time to get ready for the holiday season. I love making cards for family and friends during the holiday season. So let’s get started.
I’m sharing cards I made using several products from the catalog. My first card is using the Hero Arts Style Moderne Bold Print. I’m absolutely in LOVE with this bold print. The style of the print is so unique and can be used for any season of the year. Keeping this card with a simple color palette really made the design stand out. Only a sentiment from the Hero Arts Holiday Season Messages and a few black enamel dots and this card was complete.
For my next card golden snowflakes on Hero Arts Nautical cardstock was the way to go. The new Hero Arts Three Snowflakes Hot Foil Plate looks so rich with a darker background. It really makes a holiday card look elevated. To make the snowflakes stand out even more, I darkened the edges of my cardstock with Hero Arts Nautical ink.
And for my last card, we have an adorable little elf. The Hero Arts Peeking Elf Fancy Die really does make a sweet and fun card. I have him peeking out from a present I made. Isn’t he just too cute. All the Peeking Fancy Dies from the catalog are perfect for cards, tags and so much more. By using a newish color palette for my holiday card made this card special. The Hero Arts Cranberry, Arctic and Pine cardstock work well together when creating holiday cards.
We’ll be giving away two $50 gift cards, drawn from the comments left along the hop. Comment on all the blogs for more chances to win! You have until Thursday, August 31 at 11:59pm to enter. The winners will be announced on the Hero Arts blog.

What fun cards. I LOVE the hot foiled snowflakes, though that adorable elf is so sweet.
The elf is my favorite too — my mom had these adorable little elves that came out every year and moved around the house way before Elf on the Shelf (back in the 70’s when I was a kid) and we had a ceramic elf that sat under our Christmas tree that Santa would put out with the presents and that is one of the family heirlooms my sisters and I fought over who would get so have a huge fondness for elves:-) Beautiful cards!
I’m in love with that elf!
Dear Dana –
I like all of these, esp the snowflake card. Your work is always first-class.

I am NOT an elf person but I have to say this elf makes me one. It’s really cute and not creepy. I think I grew up in an era where the elves looked a little creepy and scary to me. Anyhow, very nice cards.
