Hello there and welcome as we celebrate the release of the Hero Arts June 2022 My Monthly Hero Kit. The theme this month is mermaids, the ocean and all underwater goodness! I have already shared one card using the main kit, which you can see
here. Today I have another project to share with the main kit, plus a project with an add-on set too. This post is part of a fun, inspiration filled blog hop with prizes. Please see below for more details.

I had originally planned to die cut her out but decided at the last minute to colour the panel instead. If I was colouring a background, I would usually do that first and then colour the main image but this time, I did it the other way around. I coloured the sea/ocean (inspired by
Marker Geek) and then added in the seaweed.
The sentiment from the set was stamped in the top left hand corner and then the panel adhered to an A2 white card base with foam tape. To finish off, I added a few white gel pen sparkles and dots on her tail fin.
My next card uses the new add-on set
Looking Glass Pearl. As with all of the Looking Glass dies, it features three windows that you can cut in to cardstock and when you layer them up, they look like a looking glass 3D image - so cool! I die cut each layer from white cardstock and then coloured them using ink blending.

Head under the sea with our June My Monthly Hero release. A beautiful mermaid greets you, with hair flowing and tail shimmering. She's accompanied by a colorful fish and jelly, with seagrass and coral surrounding her. Pearls are an accent to this kit, with an image, messages, and embellishments uniting the theme. The kit is rounded out with a Reactive Ink palette and brush, perfect for watercoloring the images or creating gorgeous underwater backgrounds.
