CARDS

The October My Monthly Hero Kit is absolute adorable with a retro Christmas feel.  I have 2 cards to share today that show how you can use the kit and add-ons to make quick cards.  

This first card uses an add-on with a sentiment from the main kit.

My Monthly Hero

This is the Television Fancy Die.  When I saw this add-on, I knew I had to use it right away! I cut television out of teal card stock and then added in several pieces with silver card stock.  

My Monthly Hero

I lined the space inside the tv with polka dot patterned paper and then used Copics to color the fire and the log.  I added a sentiment from the main kit to coordinate with the fire.  This tv die is just so cute!!

My Monthly Hero

This next card uses 3 different new products....

The card and tree are from the main kit.
The background is a stamp called Line and Dot Pattern Bold Prints.
The sentiment is from a set called Merry Christmas Script Stamp and cut.  It comes with a coordinating die that is so cute!

My Monthly Hero

I stamped the background with Hero Arts Embossing and Watermark ink and then popped the panel up on the same color card base.  

My Monthly Hero

I stamped and die cut the car and the tree and added the to the card front with foam tape.  Last, I stamped the script sentiment in black ink.  I also went in and added some Stickles around the dots for a little sparkle.

Check out the add-ons available this month.  They are adorable!
