When I first opened up the box from Hero Arts and I saw this Bubbles Bold Print Background (its an add-on this month)....I knew I had to use it!! Isn't adorable?

To create this card, I heat embossed the bubble background on white Neenah cardstock with Hero Arts White Embossing Powder. Next, I grabbed the Life Changing Blending Brushes and added in some Peacock Feathers Broken China Distress Inks to the background. Talk about a smooth blend! Next, I die the Hello Message Fancy Die in white Neenah and again in fun foam. I used the fun foam to add some dimension to the sentient. I colored up the little adorable little fish from the add-on set Pet Gold Fish and tucked it behind the hello. This way she looks like a shy little fish peeking out. I used the Blue and Green Droplets in the background for little pops of color. I popped the card front up on a white card base and left just a little white showing along the bottom.

My last project was so fun to make. I used the Paper Layering Gold Fish in a Bowel...

This is a die set with the bowl and the fish included. I created a shaped card using the bowl and then masked off the top of the bowl. I grabbed those Life Changing Brushes again and blending in the Peacock Feathers and the Broken China to create the water. I used Carbed Pumpkin and Fossilized Amber Distress Inks to blend color onto the goldfish die cut. I used a piercing tool to pop up the scales on the fish to give it some dimension. I stamped the coral and sea weed from the main kit stamp set directly on the fish bowl. I added in the sentiment and bubbles in black. Last, I popped up the fish on the bowl with foam tape.

The My Monthly Hero Kit has amazing stamps and dies included but there are also add-ons available each month. Here are all of the add-ons avail this month....
