*********************************************
I have a couple of cards to share using the add-ons from this month's My Monthly Hero Release!

One thing

My first card uses the new One Thing at a Time Stamp & Cut.  I stamped the sentiment in bold black ink and embellished with the flowers from the set in retro colors.  Everything was layered over a 1/2" scored background.

One thing2


*********************************************

My second card uses the adorable Mailbox Fancy Die.  I went traditional and die cut the mailbox from blue cardstock but added depth with shading using Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink along the edges.  I added 2 envelopes from the die set and layered over an impressed background.  The sentiment is Hello Stamp & Cut (older product) that is still available on the Hero Arts website.

  11. Amy- it's like you were in my head: when I first saw the "one thing at a time stamp," I got the retro vibe with visions of 60's/70's flowers all around, You did it justice better than I could, or even envisioned!

    And then the mailbox-it looks practically operational, between the envelopes peeking out and the shading you added. Brilliant!
