Hero Arts September 2018 My Monthly Hero Kit

9/13/2018

Hi I’m back with a new card today using a favorite card kit of mine. I have enjoyed these card kits tremendously. I find the value and the quality worth every it. This is my first card with the kit, but be sure to join in with the Caring Crafters on Facebook this Sunday for another card live!

Start by cutting down the cardstock the stamps and dies are hooked to.
Stamp some of the images from the stamp set with versafine black onyx and clear heat emboss it onto Strathmore watercolor paper.
Use the paints provided in the kit to color the images. The tonic aqua shimmer pen can add shine to the vase. Heat emboss the sentiment with the same ink.
Use foam squares to attach image and finish with a few sequins.

Supplies Used:
Hero Arts September My Monthly Hero Kit
Neenah Desert Storm 100lb cardstock
Versa fine onyx black ink
Fine clear embossing powder
Foam adhesive
Sequins

Caring Crafters September 2018 Challenge Shaker Card

9/9/2018

Hi Crafters,
I made this card live on my Facebook page today and wanted to share it with all of you too.
This month's challenge is to use 3 fall colors and make any crafty project. Please come on over to watch the video and join in on the fun if you haven't already! I chose a shaker card, an oldy but goody interactive card that never loses it excitement from the recipient.

I started with die cutting the leaf shape out of white cardstock and ink blended with brushes and Distress Oxide inks. I then attached a piece of acetate, attached foam strips and added my sequins.
I added another blended piece of cardstock cut to the same size at my leaf piece and attached to the front panel with tape runner. The front panel is stamped with fall leaves using the same 3 colors.
I used a word die and cut from Neenah desert storm cardstock and glued them together to achieve a dimensional piece. I then die cut from some foil cardstock and adhered to the top.
I used a card base measuring A2 ( 4 1/4x 5 ½) neenah desert storm.
I adhered my panel cut to the same dimensions with my staming on top. I then added my shaker element.

Supplies Used:
Stampin' Up Tropical Chic stamp and die
Altenew Simply Hello word die
Distress Oxide ink - Ripe Persimmon, Aged Mahogany, Mustard Seed
Neenah Desert Storm cardstock
Neenah Solar White cardstock
foil cardstock
makeup brushes from amazon
foam strips
atg tape runner
