Hi everyone. I am here today to show you a card inspired by our Old & New challenge. You still have a couple of days left to join this challenge.

“Something old and something new…”, of course I had to make a wedding card using some old and some brand new Hero Arts products.

I started by cutting three layers of clouds using my brand new “Cloudy sky scene dies” before I ink blended them in various shades of pink and coral to make some bright, pink clouds. I then ink blended the background blue.

I splattered a few drops of water and some Tattered Angels glimmer mist spray on the clouds and background before I turned to the images. I stamped the dancing couple from the February 2019 My Monthly hero kit wich is my old thing. I also stamped three doves from the December 2019 MMH kit (kind of old kit, but still an image I haver never used intil now, so something old AND new).

I wanted the woman to look a little more like a bride som I drew her head dress a bit bigger to make it look like a vail. I then colored the images using my copic markers.

I glued my images to the cloudy card panel and stamped my sentiment, also from the Descember 2019 MMH kit.

I cut my scene to size using a stitched rectangle die and glued it to a white card base.

For a finishing touch I gave the vail, parts of the dress, the bridal shoes and the doves a touch of sparkle using a glitter pen.

And there you have it; a cute couple dancing on their pink clouds.

I hope you will use the last few days of our “old and new-challenge” to dig into your Hero Arts stash and make lovely things.

Sending you all a few pink clouds to brighten your day.

I love reading. Beside cardmaking and scrapbooking and embroidering, reading is my favourite thing to do and I am constantly on the lookout for new, cute bookmarks. This time I decided to make one myself.

I started by inkblending a few blue and purple colors of reactive ink to create a fun deep water background. I splashed a few drops of water on the background to create “bubbles”.

I used the glitter laquer from the November 2019 My Monthly Hero kit and a scrap piece of cardstock to make glittery rays of sunshine down in the water.

I stamped the images form the March 2019 MMH kit using black ink and the sentiment is from the June 2019 MMH kit.

I found these very old bookmark pockets in my stash that I put my bookmark in. I added a bunch of sequins inside the pocket as well. Since I wanted the sequins to move when you shake the bookmark I sealed the pocket shut using my fuse tool.

I completed my project by tying a couple of ribbons in the hole on the pocket.

I hope you will join us in our next challenge that will be published here the 15th.

Until then; Stay safe, stay home and craft with joy.

Hello everyone. I am here today sharing one last birthday card before our new challenge is up the 15th.

For my card I have used several stamp sets and dies to create this, fairy in the woods, birthday scene. I started by using left over blue ink on my blender brush to create a soft, blue sky.

I used the “Tree arch fancy die” twice on a couple of patterned papers to create a paper pieced wood clearing. I inked the edges of the tree trunks and tree crown using brown and green inks.

I also cut grass from the same patterned paper as the tree crown using the “Thorn tree and grasses fancy die“. I then glued my grass and trees to the blue background.

I then turned to my stamps. My fairy girl is a stamp from the 2018 December MMH kit and my cake is from the 2020 February MMH kit. I colored both of the images using copic markers, a white gel pen and my Wink of Stella glitter brush pen.

I glued my images on the scene and stamped my sentiment, also from the February MMH kit before I cut the scene slightly smaller than the white card base to create a very thin frame for the scene.

I hope to see you again here on our blog when our new and exciting challenge is up in just a couple of days.
