October 2, 2023

Hey everyone. Welcome ot the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Release day! I’m thrilled for all of you to finally see the entire kit. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog. Our October release transports you to a snowy night in the forest. This kit features a set of three gorgeous layering dies for building your wintry scene. A 3″ x 4″ stamp set supplies swirling snow and stars. There are four message dies with frames; very useful for the holiday season. The highlight of this expanded Premium kit is a set of three “peeking” animal dies. Add them to your winter scene for a whimsical touch. There’s also a 4″ x 6″ stamp set featuring images with a Nordic flare for building ornaments, flowers, snowflakes, and more. We’ve included a fun new product making its kit debut – white acrylic spray! A generous assortment of cardstock enhances the theme. The finishing touch to the Premium Kit is a set of beautiful vellum snowflakes.

Premium Kit: $103 Value for $49.99

Let’s get into my card. For my card I wanted to keep the color palettes between the release card and my add-on card simple and elegant. Starting with Dove White  cardstock, I die cut my first layer. My second layer was created using Palm cardstock and my third layer is Cranberry cardstock. I love this color combination.

On the third panel, gold heat embossing was a great option. By using gold embossin powder for my snowflakes and splatter, it really made my card pop. Also dip dying my sentiment (which is a technique I always forget about), I pulled the gold onto the sentiment.

This card is truly a favorite of mine. Remember you can enhance your enamel dots with alcohol markers. I’ll show you in the tutorial.

You can watch the tutorial here or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.

Here is my add-on card using the beautiful Color Layering Folk Winter Animals Stencil. Oh my oh my! This is one gorgeous stencil.

If you can fall in love with a stencil, this one is my boyfriend. LOL This stencil is absolutely PERFECT for your holiday cards.

Remember, I said I was going to keep the color palette similar to my release card. By using the same three colors gold, red and green, this card is equally as gorgeous as the release card.

We will give away a $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday, October 8th at 11:59pm Pacific, and the winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog the following week. Hope I have inspired you by using the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero October 2023 Premium Kit. Can’t wait to see what you make with yours.  Next on the hop is Emily. Thanks for stopping by today and good luck with the giveaway.

Hero Arts Bold Prints

September 26, 2023

Hey everyone. Welcome back to the blog. Today we are playing with the Hero Arts Bold Prints. I absolutely love the Gingko Leaves Bold Print for a stunning background for my card. If you are new to Hero Arts bold prints, they are definitely a product you want to have in your stash to create cards.

For my card today, I kept it very simple by using different hues of green inks. By using a variation of greens, I am able to keep this card monochromatic in feel and intensity. If you want to draw the eye into the center of your cards, ink blend your ink around the edge. It also makes it look ever so elegant.

As a reminder, you can use several of your bold prints together. Using a word bold print over a clean and simple bold print, you add tons of texture to a card with little effort.

Since the bold prints took up the background, I needed to add a sentiment on vellum. Vellum is a great way to add a sentiment without blocking out what’s behind it. The sentiment I used today is the Live and Let Love stamp.  This is one of my favorite sentiments! And look how pretty it is with our background.

I hope I’ve inspired you to grab these products for your next cardmaking venture. If you want to see more cards I’ve made using Hero Arts products, click here. Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you back here soon.

Hero Arts Hello Fungi

September 15, 2023

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. I think this stamp said would be beautiful stamped in gold on black cardstock.

With fall colors right around the corner, I decided to pull in Hero Arts Woodland and Arctic cardstock. By placing the image on one of the Arches infinity dies it really allows the fungi to be present on this card.

Hero ARts Hello Fungi

As a reminder, if you want to color on color cardstock with your color pencils, be sure to add a base coat of white underneath your color. This way your colors would not be muted back into the colored background.

By chance your color is too dark, you can lighten up by adding in white on top. Make sure to use light layers of color and build up your layers. If you press too hard, you will add a wax to your cardstock and you won’t be able to build up your color to a nice blend.

Hero Arts Hello Fungi

I can’t wait to see what you create with the beautiful  Hero Arts Hello Fungi stamp set. If you want to see more cards, I have created using products from Hero Arts, you can click this link here. Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you back here soon.

Today marks the last day of my holiday card series Today marks the last day of my holiday card series for 2024. Thank you all for your support of watching the videos. You support of my little channel really matters. You can catch the tutorial over on my Youtube channel. 

I used the @simonsaysstamp Old Fashioned Christmas stamps and diecuts. My husband is a fan of old fashions so#cardtutorial  this was the perfect Christmas card for him.  I did a light watercoloring over the images and used the beautiful Simon Says Stamp Basket Weave embossing folder for the background. I do love a clean white on white card. 

I'll be sharing a few more cards in the coming days. These cards I didn't have time to film but I hope you will enjoy the inspiration.
