Creative Team Rewind!

It’s time once again for the Hero Arts Creative Team Rewind — when we highlight beautiful creations that our talented Creative Team Members have shared on their blogs or Flickr. We have a variety of products and styles to share this month and we know they will give you plenty of creative ideas.

First up is Jess with the DI411 Butterfly Confetti die. She used a variety of Hero Arts Hybrid inks to create a fun rainbow background. These colors really showcase the details of the die.

Who wouldn’t love to receive this birthday card from Amy?  She used the CL963 Ice Cream Color Layering set to make these “so good you could eat them” cones!

Next up is Yana with a colorful card using the  CM164 Hero Arts Color Layering Parrot stamp set. To create the background she stamped using the  LP411 Tropical Leaves Stamp set and the  CL834 Create Your Own Plant Stamp set . Stamping leaves multiple times with different colors creates an interesting backdrop for her focal image.

Clare used the CM151 Raining Cats and Dogs stamp set to create a card that  would make anyone smile on a bad day. We love how she used several images stamped repeatedly to create her background.

Last but not least is Jayne.  She used S6213 Large Hydrangea stamp and its coordinating DI340 Frame cuts on PS697 Midnight Mixed Layering Paper with  PW115 Brass embossing powder  to create an elegant look.  Peeking from behind is the CG710 Love is Love Bold Print background stamp.

Thank you ladies for another month of inspiration. Take some time and visit their blogs and Flickr account for even more creative ideas.
