Welcome to the Hero Arts June 2017 My Monthly Hero Kit Blog Hop. If you came from the amazing Wanda’s blog, you are right on track!
Today the creative team girls and guests are sharing some fabulous projects to celebrate the release of June 2017 My Monthly Hero Kit.
I started by applying Hero Arts ombre inks: Neon Yellow to Orange, Butter to Orange, and Lime to Green onto my Tribal Stripes background stamp using sponge dabbers. Then I stamped it to my A2 card base.
I stamped the lion image from the Coloring Layering Brave Lion stamp set using Hero Arts Inks: Soft Vanilla, Soft Apricot, and Caramel. After die cutting the lion using the coordinating Brave Lion Frame Cuts, I popped it up on my card front using foam tape.
I heat embossed the sentiment from the Go On A Safari stamp set with white embossing powder on a piece of black cardstock and mounted it onto my card.

Love your ombre background!! And you did it perfectly – this lion is so beautiful it doesn’t need anything else except a great background like yours!! All the add-ons for the kit this month are just as fabulous as the kit. Too bad I don’t have an extra $150 sitting around. This lion and the tigers – gorgeous!! And both background stamps too!!

Hi May ~ As always your card is simply aMAYzing!!! That gorgeous lion literally jumps off the card front and I love the background colors you’ve chosen. Unfortunately (and I KNOW better!!) I procrastinated and lost out on this particular kit (and my add-on choices) so love that HA gives us the chance to win one. Have an wonderful weekend!! ~HUGS~
