Hero Arts Summer Catalog Release Hop


Hey there and welcome to the Hero Arts Summer Catalog Release Blog hop!  I am so excited to be joining the girls over at Hero to showcase of few of the new stamps and dies from the latest release.  You can see the full catalog by clicking HERE!


Clean and simple card are my favorite kind.  I love adding color but leaving in a big area of white space.  Today's cards are quick and simple with a fun pop of color using these 3 new products: 



Hero Arts


First up, I stenciled that gorgeous floral pattern using the Color Layering Summer Blooms Stencil.  I love how easy it was and, of course, quick!  I used the following inks to create this color combo:


....along with the Hero Arts Blending Brushes that blend so smoothly!


Hero Arts


After creating the full stenciled panel, I stamped on top with the Positive Script Bold Prints Background Stamp.  I love the thin handwritten font to create a quick and easy detail!  


Hero Arts


I cut the panel in half so I would have enough for 2 cards.  I used a panel of fun foam to pop them each up on the white card bases. 


Hero Arts


Last, I stamped the birds and sentiments from Be You Stamp Set to create to cards of encouragement.

My comments are moderated because I get a ton of spam.  The kind of spam that tells me about cholesterol medication, among others, and just weird bot comments so I filter those out.  If you leave a comment and don't see it, thats ok!  I will see it and I will get it posted for you.  

The other issue is wether or not you need a google account.  I have my comments set to "anyone" so technically you should be able to leave a comment with any type of login, but Blogger is a pain.  If you can't leave a comment and are not sure if you your name is posting along with your comment, please add your name and email address to the end of your comment. This way we can see who you are if your comment gets chosen as a winner!  I am sorry for the annoyance.  I have no idea why it doesn't work like it should.  I have googled and switched settings around and tried all the things but again... 

Blogger is a pain.
