Hero Arts November 2024 Hero Studio Blog Hop and Giveaway

 

Hola everyone! Thanks for joining Hero Arts in celebrating the November 2024 Hero Studio Release. If you hopped over from the awesome Natasha, you are in the right place. To get more info on the changes coming to the Hero Studio program and start the hop from the beginning, visit the Hero Arts Blog

Keeping with the holiday spirit, the November Hero Studio release is full of holiday fun! The festive collection of products include new stencils, versatile dies, and creative stamp designs, perfect for adding a playful, festive flair to all your holiday crafting projects. 

For my first card, I used the gift box - one of the 6 Fancy Dies included in the Card Kit of the Month. The stocking, gift box or tea cup dies are designed so the cute animal clear stamps can peek out of them.

I chose to use the gift box alone to represent the iconic Tiffany & Co. blue box.



Card Instructions
1. Die-cut the gift box in both Paradise and white cardstock. 
2. Assemble the gift box and adhere to an A2 card base; attach
    the box top with foam tape for dimension. 
3. Stamp a sentiment onto the card front with black ink. 
4. Add Hero Arts pearls to the card front to complete.  



Creating this clean and simple card was quick, easy and a lot fun.  

For my second November 2024 Hero Studio project, I created a "Thank You" card using the November Cling Stamp of the Month (Abstract Poinsettia Pattern).  




Card Instructions
1. Heat emboss the design in Gold onto a 4" X 5.25" Cherry 
    cardstock panel. 
2. Die-cut "thanks" in black glitter cardstock; adhere onto
     card panel; adhere panel onto white A2 cardbase. 
4. Add gold sequins to the card front to complete. 
 

Next on the hop is the talented Rachel! Thanks for taking a peek!
