Hello crafty friends! The September 2025 release from Hero Arts is here, and it’s filled with cozy autumn goodness. As we head into my favorite season, you’ll find plenty of fall-themed inspiration to spark your creativity!

First up, I have a card using the Stamp & Cut of the Month—a set brimming with festive gourds and pumpkins, perfect for fall crafting.

I added the darling squirrel and fall banner from the Card Kit of the Month, finishing it off with a cozy sentiment to bring everything together.

Next, we have the Layering Stencil of the Month—a design that, when blended in warm fall hues, transforms into a stunning landscape of autumn trees.

I couldn’t resist bringing back the sweet squirrel from the Card Kit, and for this card he’s perched on a tree stump.

If you’d like to see how I created these two cards that I just shared, be sure to check out the Hero Arts Youtube channel.

For my last card today, I’m featuring the Die Set of the Month, which is filled with charming woodland creatures. I chose the sweet bear, cozily tucked into bed, as the star of my design (probably with a fan on like me!)

In the background, I created a soft autumn scene by stenciling with the Layering Stencil of the Month for September 2025, using Pink Grapefruit Ink on Sicily cardstock.

Who else is ready for Fall colors, Apple Orchard candles and cooler temperatures? Me!
