Welcome to the Hero Arts Summer 2018 Release Blog Hop. If you came from the amazing Jessica Frost-Ballas’s blog, you are right on track! Here is what I came up with to celebrate a release of Summer 2018 Catalog Collection:
I started by stamping the magnolia image from Hero Arts Florals Magnolia Die Combo with Hero Arts Intense Black Ink on a piece of Strathmore Watercolor Paper.
Then I colored my flower and leaves with Prismacolor Colored Pencils. I tried to add fine lines to give some texture to my image. I also applied some darker color toward the bottom of my pedals and the portions where the petals were folded to indicate the shades.
Next, I lightly went over the colored image with Hero Arts Liquid Watercolors and Silver Black Velvet Brush #2 Round. After my coloring is done, I traced the outline of my image with a black pen to enhance the shape of my petals and leaves.
I die cut a cover panel using Hero Arts Bold Graphic Confetti Die and Spellbinders Platinum Diecut Machine out of Altenew Woodgrain Bark Cardstock. Then I mounted the die cut panel on the A2 size white top folding card base using 3M foam tape.
I die cut “love” 6 times out of white cardstock and one time out of Simon Says Stamp Gold Glitter Cardstock using Hero Arts Love Stamp & Cut and Altenew Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine. Then I adhered my die cuts together using a glue pen to achieve a chipboard effect.
I heat embossed the sentiment from Hero Arts Smile Stamp & Cut using Hero Arts Gold Embossing Powder on a piece of white cardstock and cut my sentiment into a thin banner using a craft knife and ruler.
To finish off my card, I mounted my die cut flower, sentiment banner, and “love” die cut on the card front using 3M foam tape. I love how my card turned out. What do you think?

Hey would you mind stating which blog platform you’re using?
I’m going to start my own blog soon but I’m having
a difficult time selecting between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal.
The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something unique.
P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask! https://forum.geonames.org/gforum/user/profile/587143.page

Hello! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog.
Jul . 05 . 2021Is it difficult to set up your own blog? I’m not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty fast.
I’m thinking about setting up my own but I’m not sure where to start.
Do you have any ideas or suggestions? Appreciate it https://aboutphysicianjobs.com/author/dinwiddie1020/

With havin so much content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My website has a lot of unique content I’ve either written myself or outsourced but it looks
like a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my
agreement. Do you know any solutions to help stop content
from being stolen? I’d truly appreciate it.
