Hero Arts CommUNITY guest designer...


Happy hello blog friends.. I am so excited to share that I was asked to guest design for the Hero Arts CommUNITY. You can see the guest post on the Hero Arts blog HERE


On a piece of Dove White cardstock measuring 4" x 5 1/4", stamp United People Bold Prints with Hero Arts Fruit Punch, Bubble Gum, Creamsicle, Green Apple and Lemon Drop inks. I started with one color and just rubbed the ink from top to bottom the width of the mini ink cube. I then added some Clear Embossing and Watermark ink and stamped the images again. Make sure to leave your stamp in place so it will stamp directly in the same place. Now heat emboss using Clear Detail Embossing Powder. This will make the colors more vibrant.


Cut an A2 panel of Azalea carstockand and adhere your stamped panel using foam tape. Now adhere the Azalea panel to your Dove White card base. Trim one strip measuring 1/4" each of Papaya, Azalea and Cherry cardstock. Adhere them to a piece of Dove White cardstcok at an angle, trim down and add to your colorful background. Stamp the "fabulous" sentiment from the Textured Complimentsstamp set on Cherry cardstock using Clear Embossing and Watermark Ink and heat emboss Detail Black Embossing Powder. Trim down the sentiment and adhere to card using foam tape. Stamp the "you are" sentiment from the same stamp set on Dove White cardstock using Intense Black ink, fussy cut around the sentiment and adhere to card using foam tape.


On a Dove White cardstock panel measuring 3 3/4" x 5", stencil the sun from the Clouds and Grass Scenic Stencil using Lemon Drop ink. Start in the middle and use a light hand when added the ink. Cover your panel with this sun stencil. Stamp every sentiment from the Textured Compliments set on your sunny background using Granite ink. Start at the top and line up two sentiments and stamp. They will not fit completely but that is ok. Stamp the entire panel, just make sure to offset your sentiments when stamping each line.


Cut a panel of Granite cardstock measuring 4" x 5 1/4". Adhere your stamped panel with foam tape to the grey panel and then adhere it to your white A2 card base. Stamp the "you are" sentiment on Dove White cardstock using Intense Black ink, fussy cut around the sentiment, add some foam tape to the back and adhere it to the left, middle side of the card. Stamp the heart from the Textured Compliments set using Granite ink on Dove White cardstock, fussy cut, add some foam tape and adhere to card. Finish with a few Midnight Black Accent Pearls. And that's it! Two beautiful cards made using products from the Hero Arts Unity Collection.


Don't you just love these amazing sets? I had a blast designing with them and I hope that I have inspired you today. Remember to be kind and love everyone. It is a wonderful thing to be able to love everyone. God is amazing.
