Hero Arts My Monthly Hero- May 2022

May 2, 2022

Welcome to the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero for May 2022. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog. I hope you have enjoyed the sneak peeks and now it’s time for the full reveal. We’ve cooked up some creativity with the May My Monthly Hero kit release. Join us in the kitchen for a kit made for sharing birthday greetings, friendship, or decorating your baked goodies! The main kit features a gorgeous kitchen-themed Cover Plate die. The A2-sized cling stamp adds a great backsplash to your scene, or is versatile as a background on any project. There are dies for embellishing with pots or adding food, a fun new “cast iron” embossing powder, and messages for your card and gift giving needs. The kit is rounded out with cardstock in colors that give a vintage kitchen vibe, as well as wonderfully theme-appropriate baker’s twine.

 

 

Kit Includes
Kit Value: $70
Kit Cost: $34.99

• 4″ x 6″ Clear Stamp Set
• Cover Plate Fancy Die• 6 Additional Fancy Dies
• Cling Background Stamp (4.625″ x 5.875″)
• 12 Sheets of Cardstock – 4 each of Pink, Mint, White (5.5″ x 8.5″)
• Watermark & Embossing Ink Cube
• Cast Iron Embossing Powder (0.5 oz.)
• Blue Baker’s Twine (10 yards)

Pre-order your kit today – we estimate kit shipping will begin Friday, May 6th and continue throughout the following week.

Here’s a look at my card. I had so much fun creating. I started with Hero Arts Pebbles cardstock and the Brick Cling Background stamp. Then heat embossed it in Hero Arts Clear Embossing Powder to create the background. Now it was time to add the kitchen.

 

Using Hero Arts Dove White cardstock, I die cut the little kitchen twice. Cutting it twice, I was able to create a heavier piece of cardstock. Next I pulled out my Copic Markers and did a little bit of coloring. For the stove and the hood I used silver matte cardstock.

 

 

 

I made a tutorial showing you how I pulled the card together. You can watch it here or over on my Youtube channel mzdanajoy.

Let’s not forget my bonus card using the Hero Arts Eggcellent stamp set. OMG this stamp set is fantastic. I created a little table for my kitchen set up to be displayed. Again I used my Copic markers to color this one up. Make sure to grab the bundle for this stamp set. You will really want to have the matching dies for this set.

Welcome to the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero release for April 2022. You should have arrived here from Channin’s blog.  Our fun and floral April kit is a celebration of spring as well as the amazing people in all of our lives. It features a gorgeous cling background with bees and flowers. Three layering stencils make the coloring process easy; simply pair them with the inks and blending brush included in the kit, and you’ll quickly have cards in fresh spring colors. Combine the “amazing” word die with the mix and match messages in the stamp set for expressing thanks, celebrating birthdays, sending Mother’s Day greetings and more. We’ve also included dies for highlighting select images from the background, and the kit is rounded out with enamel embellishments which complement the ink colors perfectly.

Hero Arts My Monthly Hero

For my card today I pulled in a pretty color palette with purples and black. This color combo is very striking on a card. Using a larger piece of Hero Arts Dove White cardstock, I heat embossed the bold print background stamp in Hero Arts Gold Embossing Powder. Next it was time to add color.

Hero Arts My Monthly Hero April 2022

Since I already knew who I would be sending this card to and I know she loves purple, I used Hero Arts Orchid and Soft Purples inks for the flowers and Hero Arts Green Hills ink for the leaves. To add it the deep black color, I used Copic markers which I will share with you in the tutorial. Once the coloring was complete, I cut the panel in half diagonally.

Hero Arts My Monthly Hero April 2022

To keep the card simple, I placed the panel on the card base overlapping at the corners, added a simple sentiment with a few Hero Arts Enamel dots and gold dashes finished off the card nicely. Let me share with you how to put this card together in the below tutorial.

You can watch the tutorial here or over on my YouTube channel mzdanajoy. Affiliate inks have been used at no cost to you. I believe the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit for April 2022 will definitely make your card making super easy.

 

We will give away a $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday, April 10th at 11:59pm Pacific, and the winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog the following week.

I also have a bonus card for you using the New Shoes and Fancy Hat Dies. These dies make wonderful Mother’s Day cards or birthday cards. I love a happy and bright card and rainbows make everything better.

Hero Arts Shoes and Hat Fancy Dies

For this card I blended Hero Arts inks in the following colors: Strawberry, Tangerine, Dandelion, Lime Green, Soft Pool and Passion Flower to ink up my pretty background along with a few spritz of Hero Arts White Iridescent Shimmer Spray. Next I die cut several hats from the following cardstock: Cherry, Papaya, Canary, Kiwi, Paradise and Amethyst. I also cut out a few from Dove White card stock so I could paper piece either the brim or the band around the hats.

Hero Arts Shoes and Hat Fancy Dies

To add a little bit of depth on each hat, I used a Copic marker to add in some shading. Using the same marker colors, I added color to the flowers I die cut from the die set. Keeping the card simple, I stamped a happy mother’s day greeting from the Let’s Celebrate stamp set also from Hero Arts.

Let's mix things up on our next Valentine's Day Ca Let's mix things up on our next Valentine's Day Cards. I'm using two products I don't think I've ever used together before. Hot foil plates and stencils for the win! I have two very different color palettes today that aren't your traditional red and pink cards.

I do have a favorite out of these two cards. Can you guess which one? Check out the tutorial to see just how easy these cards were to put together. (link in bio)

Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine c Morning everyone. It's another day for valentine cards. In today's tutorial I made a trio of valentine cards from one background. This was so easy and so much fun to make. Where are my Distress Oxide Spray lovers?

With three colors of @tim_holtz Distress Oxide Sprays these cards were created. I don't have all the sprays and are "collecting" them little by little. The fear of using these sprays have been unleashed. 😂😂😂 After watching more and more videos from Tim, my nervousness of "messing it up" has been replaced by "oh that's so pretty". 

By using just two die cuts from products from the January 2023 release from @heroarts

The link for the tutorial is in the bio and I hope I inspire you to start creating your Valentine's Day Cards.

The January 2023 release for @ginakdesigns is now The January 2023 release for @ginakdesigns is now available. The Terrific Textures stamp designed by @melaniemuenchinger was so much fun to play with.

I stamped the image several times in different color inks from Gina K. Designs. The colors are Passionate Pink, Wild Dandelion, Key Lime, Lucky Clover and Ocean Mist. Next I filled in the area using my W-G 7 @olomarker to change the paper from white to this pretty warm gray color. 

While I was stamping the images, I made sure to leave a section blank where I could place my Happy Birthday sentiment. This was such a great card to great.
