Hello, and welcome to the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Kit Blog Hop. If you came from the fabulous Mariana’s blog, you are right on track! Today the creative team girls are sharing some fabulous projects to celebrate the release of October My Monthly Hero Kit.

Handmade Christmas Card

I created a festive Christmas card using the fun images from October My Monthly Hero Kit add-on stamp set: Holiday Cheer. While making this card, I was thinking of Christmas tree with ornaments that I’ve collected over the years.

How to Make a Christmas Ornaments Card using Ombré Inking

  1. Cut white cardstock into 4.25″x5.5″ out of Snow Layering Papers.
  2. Blend five shades of red using mini blending tools and Tim Holtz Distress Inks: Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick, Festive Berries, Candied Apple and Fired Brick.
  3. Add ink splatters using Unicorn White Spray on the ombré background.
  4. Stamp the images from Holiday Cheer stamp set with Memento Tuxedo black ink.
  5. Color the images with Copic markers and die cut them with Holiday Cheer frame cuts.
  6. Attach some silver metallic thread on the back of each die cut and mount them on the card front using foam dots.
  7. Stamp the sentiment from the Christmas Messages stamp set with black ink.
  8. Finish off the card by adding some shimmer to the tree using Wink of Stella Clear Glitter.

    Undeniably believe that that you said. Your favorite justification seemed to be on the net the easiest factor to have in mind of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed at the same time as folks consider issues that they just do not realize about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top as well as outlined out the entire thing with no need side effect , other people could take a signal. Will probably be again to get more. Thank you|

    When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Thanks a lot!|

    Aw, this was an extremely good post. Taking a few minutes and actual effort to make a top notch article… but what can I say… I procrastinate a whole lot and never manage to get anything done.|

    Hey! I know this is kind of off-topic but I had to ask.
    Does building a well-established blog such as yours require a large amount of work?

    I’m completely new to writing a blog but I do write in my diary everyday.
    I’d like to start a blog so I can share my own experience and views online.
    Please let me know if you have any kind of suggestions or tips
    for brand new aspiring bloggers. Thankyou!

    Its such as you read my mind! You appear to know a lot approximately this, such as you wrote the
    guide in it or something. I believe that you just could do with a few p.c.
    to pressure the message house a bit, however instead of that, this is wonderful blog.
    An excellent read. I will certainly be back.

    issues. When I look at your website in Safari, it looks fine however,
    when opening in IE, it has some overlapping issues. I just wanted to give
    you a quick heads up! Aside from that, fantastic website!
