Hero Arts | Friendship Blooms

Hello there, I am delighted to be joining Hero Arts today to celebrate the release of the February collections. There are three new collections releasing today and my card focusses on the Friendship Blooms collection.

I started off my card by creating a hexagon shaped card base. I cut two Hero Arts Hexagon Infinity Dies from Hero Arts Deluxe Smooth White Cardstock and on one, made a score line towards to the top to create a hinge. I added adhesive to the hinge and adhered it to the back of the other hexagon to create the card base. 

I then took the new Hero Arts Large Flower Layering Fancy Dies, as well as the new Hero Arts Small Floral Layering Fancy Dies and cut one flower and leaf from each using Hero Arts Cardstock. I cut the large flower from Paradise Cardstock and added ink blending on top (in the centres) with Hero Arts Paradise and Bermuda Core Ink. I cut the smaller flower from Bermuda Cardstock and added Bermuda Core Ink on top. 

I cut the larger leaves from Hero Arts Kiwi Cardstock and added ink blending to them with Hero Arts Kiwi and Fresh Lawn Core Inks. I cut the smaller leaf frond from Hero Arts Meadow Cardstock and added ink blending with Hero Arts Fresh Lawn and Pine Core Inks. The flower centres were cut from white cardstock. I then added vellum to the backs of the flowers, so that you can see it through the holes. I adhered the leaves onto the card first, with Hero Arts Precision Glue, followed by the flowers with thin foam tape. 

I die cut the 'hello' from the Hero Arts Friends Words Fancy Dies three times from Hero Arts Pitch Black Cardstock. They were adhered one on top of another and then on to the card. I stamped a sentiment from Hero Arts Everyday Sentiment Strips Stamp Set onto white cardstock using Hero Arts Intens-ified Black Ink. It was cut into a strip and adhered to the card with foam tape. To finish, I embellished with Spellbinders Silver Mix Color Essentials Gems.
