Hello friends! It’s time for another My Monthly Hero Release from Hero Arts! Let’s kick this off by showing you what’s included in the Classic and Premium Version,
The Classic Kit is shown above. It includes
- Clear 6″ x 8″ Stamp Set
- 10 Coordinating Dies
- Fruit Cling Background Stamp
- Intens-ified Black Ink Cube
- Clay Fruit Embellishments
- 2 Sheets of Kiwi and Coral Cardstock, 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
- 5 Sheets of Watercolor paper, 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
The Premium version shows above includs
- Classic Kit PLUS
- Fruit & Veggie Window Die
- 2 Liquid Watercolor Neon Brights in Orange and Green
- 5 Mini Brushes
Now onto some inspiration!
I heat embossed the background stamp included in the kit onto white cardstock with white embossing powder.
Then I ink blended on Taffy, Creamsicle and Lemon Drop Reactive Inks using a blending brush. I went over some of the areas of the fruit with a waterbrush to lift the ink for a reactive look.
I added in the Cabbage, Corn, Crate that I created from the monthly release along with a colored in image. The sentiment is also from the Classic kit that I stamped in Black onto White cardstock and trimmed out.
I also added in some of the fun clay embellishments.
Another card I wanted to share with you features the background stamp from the kit stamped in Sand Ink onto Sand cardstock for a tone on tone look.
I added this fun truck with the basket of goodies and cute little pup!
I paper pieced my truck to add dimension.
Hope you enjoyed today’s inspiration!

Love your backgrounds! I LOVE the pup!
I love the dog in the truck card. A must add on for me
Dear Mindy –
These are great! I love the dog in the bed of the pickup. So cute! I also love the “good health” card. The background is fantastic!

Love both of these cards! The first one is so cheerful, and I love the positivity. The doggie card is my favorite — that one is so adorable!
Such fun designs! Bright and cheery with the fruit and veggies and just adorable with the truck and sweet dog! Thank you so much for sharing and inspiring!
They are both very nice.
My favorite though is the truck card with the dog!
Thanks for sharing.
Your pink/orange/yellow color scheme is wonderful. It makes me think of citrus
Super cards! I adore the truck and puppy especially!
Wonderful cards! I love the truck and puppy card – such a great design!
Your cards are really wonderful! That truck with the puppy is so cute!
Mindy, Your cards are always beautiful and I love following you.
Gorgeous! Love this release.
Wonderful cards. That crate will
be useful for lots of cards. Love
the puppy in the back of the pickup.
thanks for sharing.
I like the backgrounds for both. I also like the crate, truck and dog.
The Puppy in the truck is my fav! But they are all beautiful!
Both cards are so great! I love your colorful background on the 1st card and the red truck looks so neat on the 2nd card. This line is so fun!
Great cards. I love your first card with the crate and orange, so bright and fun. The truck and puppy such a cute idea. 🙂
