Hi all, it’s Gwendolyn here on the blog to share a Valentine’s day card for our “Anything Goes” challenge. You still have a day to enter our challenge and be in the running to win either a $25 or $50 gift voucher to the Hero Arts store. 
I created a “wild” Valentine’s Day card using Hero Arts Jungle Frame fancy die which I watercoloured using Hero Arts liquid watercolours, painting one leaf with Pink watercolour so that it would stand out. I also used this colour to paint the sentiment strip. These inks are really so vibrant!
I adhered this frame onto a watercoloured background and added the tiger which I had stamped, watercoloured and then diecut. This tiger is part of last June’s kit which I hadn’t had a chance to play with until now.
For the sentiment, I hand wrote “Let’s Get” and stamped the word “Wild” using part of a stamp from the above kit.
Well I hope I’ve inspired you to join in our “Anything Goes” challenge and I look forward to seeing your wonderful creations in the link-up here.
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day doing something you love!
Hugs,

Happy new year, everyone. I am here today sharing a card using the January My Monthly Hero kit.
I was dying to try the biodegradable glitter from the kit so I started by stamping the earth and sentiment using black ink and colored the earth quickly using copic markers.
I then covered all the green parts in liquid glue before I attatched the green glitter to it. I also used my wink of stella glitter brush to cover the rest of the earth. The result is a very glittery image, but the green parts even more glittery and a little dimensional as well.
After coloring the image I cut the card panel to size and wrapped the brown string from the kit around it a couple of times and tying a cute bow. I then glued three wood veneer stars around the image.
I finished the card by popping the panel up on foam tape before I glued it on to a grass green card base.
So that was our last glimmery, glittery card before the new challenge will be here the 15th. I hope you will come back then.
I hope you will have wonderful day.
Oh my goodness Fall is just flying by and it is almost time to start making my holiday cards, so for our Nature theme this month I started getting out all of my Hero Holiday Stamps! It is always fun to “shop” your stash and re-visit an old favorite set. For the card below I used the Winter Time Fun set and did some simple masking to create the scene. To start I Die cut the wreath from some white cardstock and stamped the fox and the tree from the set, then cut some simple masks from post it tape to cover them as well as a curved piece to stick on top to create the snowbank.
Then I ink blended the night sky with splash ink very lightly using clarity stencil brushes and then more heavily using Blue Hawaii and then Grape Slush and let it dry thoroughly. I removed the masks and colored Mr. Fox and the tree with Copics and prismacolor pencils on top and added some detail with a micron pan. Finally I white heat embossed the sentiment from the set on a piece of lapis cardstock and some snowflakes on my colored panel. I carefully glued the wreath back on top of the circle and foam mounted it to the card and added some white details with a gel pen and crytal stickles for a little snowy sparkle.
Take a look at this set as it has alot of really sweet little wintry items for your Holiday cards. Dont forget to join us for the Nature challenge. Link Up for the giveaway is here.> Product Links are below too.
Happy Crafting,
