2021 Summer Catalog Sneak Peek #3 + Giveaway

Hello friends! It's time for our third and final sneak peek before tomorrow's 2021 Summer Catalog launch and we have a burst of sunshine headed your way.

Here comes the sun! Whether you're stenciling, stamping or die cutting, we have some fun new designs that will bring sunny vibes to all of your projects.

Let's start with the cheerful card on the left. This entire scene was created with the new Clouds and Grass Scenic Stencil (SA162), from the sun and clouds, to the grass and even the birds. Our new Scenic Stencils are uniquely designed so that you can use both the positive and negative images on the edges of the stencil to create masked shapes and elements. You'll be able to build scene after scene, create backgrounds with inks, sprays, texture paste, and more. So many fun possibilities! We've covered both land and sea -- you'll find a Waves Scenic Stencil (SA163) in the catalog as well.

Moving onto the lovely ink-blended card on the right, a new background cling stamp makes a sparkling appearance. Let the sun shine on your summertime (or anytime) creations with the Sun Ray Bold Prints (CG844)! This 6" x 6" red rubber cling background lends itself to so many techniques and its versatility will make it a fast favorite to use year round. We're excited to see what you create with the five new Bold Prints backgrounds in the catalog!

GIVEAWAY: Leave a comment on this post (one per person) and we will randomly select a winner from the comments to receive a $20 gift certificate to the Hero Arts Online Store! Please comment by Friday, May 21 at 11:59pm PT.

Tomorrow's the day! You'll be able to find the brand new 2021 Summer Catalog products at your favorite retailers and in the Hero Arts shop on Thursday, May 20. We invite you to join us for an inspiration-packed blog hop and more giveaways starting at 10am PT tomorrow, right here on the blog.

Here are links to the previous peeks in case you missed them. Be sure to comment on each for a chance to win a gift card: Monday Peek #1 & Tuesday Peek #2 

We hope you have a wonderful day and look forward to seeing you tomorrow for loads of Summer Catalog fun!

Sunny smiles,
