Hero Arts City Window Fancy Die

Hey everyone. I’m back with one more card for using products from the Hero Arts December 2021 release. Today’s card is featuring the new Hero Arts City Window Fancy die. This might be one of my favorite cards ever.

About a year or more ago I made a bunch of alcohol ink backgrounds that I never got around to putting on a card. The City Window Fancy die was perfect for these inked backgrounds. I die cut the window from Hero Arts Dove White cardstock and placed a piece of the alcohol inked background behind it. Can you say STUNNING?!?!

 

 

For the sentiment I used the one of the sentiments from the Wherever You Go stamp set also from Hero Arts. I used Hero Arts Mulled Wine ink since it was also a perfect match to my alcohol ink background.

 

 

 

The panel was then placed on a A2 card base using Hero Arts Dove White cardstock. This card was so quick and easy to put together.

 

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope I have inspired you to pull out your alcohol ink backgrounds along with this die to make quick and easy cards. See you back here soon!

Altenew: Paint-A-Flower: Sweet Pea Release blog hop

Welcome to the Altenew Paint-A-Flower: Sweet Pea Release blog hop. You should have arrived here from Teresa’s blog. Let’s get into the card.

 

 

My card today was kept to a simple color palette of black and white. Using this color palette really puts the focus on the Sweet Pea. I stamped the image onto black cardstock with Versamark ink and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. Before I heat set it, I also stamped out a simple happy birthday sentiment to be heat embossed as well.

 

After I finished the heat embossing, I trimmed down the black cardstock so I could layer it on a piece of matte silver card panel which as a 1/4″ larger than the black panel.

 

Now it was time to adhere this panel to an A2 card base and add a few matte silver pearls to finish off the card.

Hero Arts A Warm Welcome Die Set

Hey everyone. I’m back with another card from the Hero Arts December 2021 release. For my card I used A Warm Welcome die set. This die makes the most adorable little houses. Pairing this with the new Hero Arts City Park Heroscape and you have a cute and simple card.

 

 

 

 

I used the following ink colors from Hero Arts to create my little houses: Red Royal, Just Rust, Butterbar, Moss, Pool, Soft Purple and Mulled Wine. Once I die cut the little houses, I made a 4.50 x 4.50 card base from Hero Arts Dove White card stock to create a sun burst. I then die cut two hills from the City Park Heroscape kit in Hero Arts Meadow cardstock, sponged on some left over green ink from a blending brush and heat embossed a sentiment in white embossing powder.

 

 

Adhering my houses down first onto the card base using Hero Arts Precision glue, I popped up the hills up in front of them. Super easy card to mass produce.

 

I love these adorable little houses. I hope I inspired you to grab this die set to create your own little neighborhood! Have a great day everyone and I’ll see you back here soon!


Hero Arts City Park Heroscape

Morning everyone. I have a card today using the new Hero Arts City Park Heroscape stamp set for December. This stamp set is perfect for our friends who live in a city environment. All the images remind of NYC and Central Park. When my son lived in NYC, I had the chance to stroll through Central Park and it was amazing. The hustle and bustle of the city really made me miss living closer to a big city.

 

Being from New Jersey, we used to visit the Big Apple during the summers with friends and family. When I got married, my brother-in-law lived in NYC and was a dancer of Alvin Ailey. We would go visit him and see a show. The memories of these times are priceless. My card was kept very clean and simple with a navy, gold and white color palette. I used Hero Arts Nautical cardstock, Hero Arts Gold Glitter Embossing Powder and Tulip puffy paint for the snow.

 

 

To deepen up the navy I did sponge on some Hero Arts Navy ink in a few random spots to intensify the color a little bit. And the puffy paint is perfect for making snow.

Thanks for stopping by today. I’ll see you back here soon with another card featuring Hero Arts products.


 

 

Altenew NEW Year-End Celebration Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes)

Welcome Altenew NEW Year-End Celebration Collection Release Blog Hop + Giveaway ($300 in total prizes). You should have arrived here from Tenia. Today’s release is all about celebrations. Let’s take a peek at the card I made.

 

I decided that a dramatic card was necessary to kick off this celebration. The products I used for this card are the Lovely Daisies die set and the Mega Stamp Frame die set.  These two dies set work so beautifully together. I used Concord & 9th Grapefruit, Sorbet, Buttercup, Stardust, Parsley and Evergreen cardstock for the flower. And the sentiment was made with C&9 Grapefruit card stock.  The black cardstock is Hero Arts Pitch Black.

Pairing these two products together on a black card base really makes the card pop. For the background, I used my score board to add some texture to my card with vertical lines. This is such an easy way to make a simple card base stand out.

 

 

You could also use an embossing folder with a clean design that doesn’t overpower the flower as well for texture.

Now let’s talk about giveaways.To celebrate this release, Altenew is giving away a $50 gift certificate to 2 lucky winners and a $25 gift certificate to 8 winners! Please leave a comment on the Altenew Card Blog and/or each designer’s blog post on the blog hop list below by 12/23/2021 for a chance to win.  Altenew will draw 10 random winners from the comments left on each stop of this blog hop and announce the winners on the Altenew Winners Page on 12/25/2021.
