Hero Arts / My Monthly Hero October Blog Hop / Giveaway


Hello! 
Welcome to the My Monthly Hero Blog Hop!  Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit is full of stamps and dies to create Retro Christmas projects!   I got a start on my holiday cards and have a few to share, each one different but using the same color palette and all CAS.....let's go see them!  

The main kit and add-ons are fabulous!  The kit is available for a limited time only - once it's gone, it's gone. Kits begin shipping from Hero Arts on Monday, October 14th.  You can now subscribe to receive the kit monthly and never miss one!  The kit value is over $70......but only costs $34.99.  Once this kit is gone, it's gone!



This kit includes:
6 x 8 Clear stamp set
19 Coordinating Frame Cuts
2 5.5" x 8.5" Sheets of Chrome Cardstock
6 5.5" x 8.5" Sheets of Neon Cardstock
Clay Snowflake Embellishments
Prisma Glitter 0.5 oz.

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

My first card uses the "charlie brown Christmas tree" (as I call it) from the main kit.  I colored in the ornaments in the blue, green, and pink colors I've chosen for all of my cards.  I added Prisma Glitter to the ornaments.  The sentiments were stamped in bold black ink and a thin strip of black cardstock was adhered at the bottom to ground the image.

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

My second card goes all RETRO.  Using the Pop Art Fancy Dies, I die cut them from colors of cardstock and adhered them to a background stamped in grey ink using the Mod Pattern Bold Prints stamp.  A simple Merry Christmas die cut sentiment done in black along with one lone black star.

Retro

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

My third card uses the stamp set Retro Christmas Messages.  I stamped the diamond in blue, green, and pink inks across my white panel.  I added in one of the messages with foam adhesive and some stamped stars.  As a finishing touch, stickles glitter was added to the stars.

Wonderful Time

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

My final card uses the Santa and sleigh from Out of this World Christmas.  I can see this set used for SO many occasions and not just for the holidays.  I started by ink blending Broken China Distress Ink into the center of a white panel.  I added the world and santa with foam adhesive along with the sentiment strip.

Around the world

So enjoyed seeing your CAS style cards. Everything about this kit is CAS & that is what I like best. I like the non-traditional colours you've used on your cards. Those signs are just so retro. We had a small store in our town that had signs shaped just like Pop Art Fancy dies. Thanks so much Amy for the inspiration.
