Hey friends! I’m joining Hero Arts in celebrating their latest release of the Hero Arts Studio. Dare I say this is my favorite release from them??? I literally squealed when I saw these images.

I have a video sharing the release, creating a card and sharing some big news!

VIDEO

You can watch the video down below or HERE on my Youtube channel.

Hero Arts has many different monthly kits that you can subscribe to including:

• Card Kit Of The Month
• Clear Set & Dies Of The Month
• Fancy Dies Of The Month
• Cling Of The Month
• Layering Stencils Of The Month
• The WHOLE Studio

Plus they offer a few different items a la carte that coordinate with the release. I love it all!

My first card is featuring the Card Kit Of The Month with these absolutely adorable critters! I colored them in with my Tri Blend Markers on Dove White cardstock.

Next I have the Fancy Die Of The Month which is this fun frame with ribbons, ornaments and Christmas Tree. I colored this die cut with my Tri Blend markers as well. For the tree, I adde white dots with a white gel pen and highlights to the ribbon. Then I went over it with a shimmer pen.

I lightly ink blended a white panel with Crimson, Cranberry and Raspberry Jam Ink using a blending brush. Then I added my die cut piece of the top and popped up my cute little critters in the window with foam squares.

Next I have some more cute critters and this time they are peeking over the edge of a stenciled panel.

I am in love with this sweater pattern stencil included in the Card Kit. I ink blended Crimson and a smidge of Raspberry Jam over Cherry cardstock. Doesn’t this pattern scream Christmas??

I trimmed a couple inches off the panel and added it to a white card front. Then added my critters using foam tape.

The sentiment is from the Naughty Animal Messages stamp set. I heat embossed it in White using Pitch Black Cardstock, Unicorn pigment ink and White embossing powder.

This next card was a labor of love. It is featuring the Presents Tower Fancy Die. I die cut it from Dove White carstock and colored it in with my Olo Markers.

I added detail to the presents with a white gel pen.

For the background, I ink blended this fun stencil again from the card kit using Meadow cardstock and a darker green ink (sorry can’t remember which one). Then I splattered with the Acrylic White Paint.

Now this next card is the one I created in the video using the Layering Stencil.

I used a Kraft colored cardstock with some traditional ink colors and added White Paste for the last layer.

Be sure to check out the video walking through this card and sharing some important news and updates.

I absolutely love how all of these came out!
