Hero Arts | May 2023 My Monthly Hero Countdown to Creativity

Hello there and welcome as we countdown to the release of the Hero Arts May 2023 My Monthly Hero Kit. The kits release on Monday, 1st May 2023. We are sharing inspiration all weekend long, so do head over to the Hero Arts Blog for more inspiration. 

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.

My card today uses elements from the Premium Kit. I started off by die cutting one of the Tri-Fold Fancy Dies from the kit from Hero Arts Deluxe White Cardstock. These dies are meant to create a tri-fold design, but I decided to cut just one for my card today. 

I then took a 3.5" x 4.75" panel of white cardstock and added ink blending towards the bottom. Using a Hero Arts Extra Large Ink Blending Brush, I blended on Hero Arts Paradise Core Ink, fading to white at the top. The die cut was then adhered on top with thin foam tape, followed by the panel being adhered to a US A2 sized white card base with more thin foam tape. 

I stamped the sentiment from the kit stamp set (in both the Classic and Premium Kit) on to Hero Arts Pitch Black Cardstock using Hero Arts Clear Embossing & Watermark Ink. I applied Hero Arts White Embossing Powder and heat set. It was cut into a strip using a sentiment strip die from the Hero Arts Message Strips Stamp & Cut XL Set. 

It was adhered to the card with more thin foam tape. To finish off, I die cut the heart from the coordinating die set (in both the Classic & Premium Kit) from Hero Arts Paradise Cardstock three times. They were layered up one on top of another and adhered to the tree using Hero Arts Precision Glue. I then applied Hero Arts Clear Lacquer Pen on top for some added shine.
