Inkspirational Challenges Reminder!

 




Hi friends!
I'm here with a quick little post to remind you of our current challenge at Inkspirational! You still have several days to join our "Add a Tag" challenge. The gallery closes on Friday the 12th of September. 


I made the tag of my card to be a sweet little door hanger! It's attached to the card base very lightly and the recipient can easily remove it and display it on a cupboard door for example (see my photo below!) I've used the newly released Hero Arts September Studio products: Stamp and Cut . This set consists of fun, artsy pumpkin images with some leaves and flowers... and also that adorable sentiment comes from the same set! Read all about Hero Arts monthly subscription products HERE.

Please head on over to Inkspirational challenge blog for all the challenge details!

Hero Arts September Studio is available + Time Out Challenges #296 Reminder





Hello everyone!

I'm here today sharing two cards I made with the September Hero Studio products... But before I go more detailed into the products and the cards I'd like to use this opportunity to remind you of our ongoing Friendship/Encouragement/Support Challenge at Time Out Challenges! Both of these fall cards would be perfect to send to a friend and cheer up their day... And I'm going to do exactly that with my cards! Please head on over to the challenge blog for all the challenge details and lots of more DT inspiration. I'd love to see your Friendship/Encouragement/Support cards in the gallery!


So, onto the cards and the new Hero Arts September Studio products! In this post I'm playing with two products from the Studio line:


The Die Set of the Month this time has 5 adorable little critter dies that you can have snuggling and taking it easy and cozy under a cute stitched blanket in a beautiful bed! I chose to work with the bear and the fox from the animals... and added extra detail to my blanked with the Daisy Mosaic stencil, it's an older Hero Arts product but definitely a favorite! I've cut my critters from white Neenah card and ink blended their coloring. 

There's also plenty of ink blending in the card with the Layering Stencils of the Month,  I love the vibrant look I got with various Altenew and Distress inks. I added interest to my card by die cutting a rectangle from the stenciled piece and lifting it up with foam. 

In both card I've used a sentiment from Stamp and Cut of the Month... Stay tuned for a card made with that set!
