Welcome to the Hero Arts August 2017 My Monthly Hero Kit Blog Hop. If you came from the amazing llina’s blog, you are right on track!
For my card, I started by stamping the star confetti images with Ombre Purple Ink and sentiment with black ink on A2 card base. Then I stamped the little images from the stamp set included in the main kit with Soft Granite Ink to create my own background.
I stamped the boy/girl/cloud image with Ombre Mint to Green Ink, Ombre Purple Ink, and Soft Granite Ink. Then I die cut the images with coordinating dies and mounted them on the card front using 3M foam tape.
That’s all for my card. Hope you like what I came up with.
