Video: Sunset Beach Scene with June 2023 My Monthly Hero Kits

Hello friends!! It’s Channin here and in today’s video I will create a dramatic sunset scene featuring the June My Monthly Hero Classic and Premium Kits. Watch to learn my tips and tricks for stamping seamless gradations and for step-by-step instructions for creating this bold beachy card.

Watch below or HERE on the Hero Arts YouTube channel.

To create this card I first stamped the base layer for the water in Lemon Drop , Taffy , Ultra Pink and Purple Galaxy inks onto an A2 panel of Deluxe Smooth White  cardstock. I then stamped the second layer for the water in Taffy and Ultra Pink . Lastly, I finished up the ocean by stamping the highlight in Lemon Drop .

Next, I trimmed the panel along the horizon/waterline and then ink blended a gradation over the upper half of the panel in Splash , Blue Hawaii and Purple Galaxy inks. I then stamped the clouds onto the blended panel in the same three inks.

Next, I die cut a sun out of  Deluxe Smooth White cardstock with the circle die included in the kit and then I ink blended it in Lemon Drop , Taffy and Ultra Pink inks. Next I colored the sand with a Copic marker and finished it with a Purple Galaxy blended gradation. I then stamped silhouetted woman image in Intens-ified Black Ink onto the sand/ocean panel.

Next I die cut an A2 panel of Pitch Black cardstock with the Beach Window Fancy Die included in the kit. I adhered the sky panel, then the sun, and lastly the ocean panel to the front of an A2 top-folding white card base . Next, I adhered the windowed panel to the card front with foam adhesive.

I stamped a sentiment in Embossing & Watermark Ink onto Pitch Black cardstock. I then poured Detail White Embossing Powder over, heat set, and die cut it out with the matching die. I finished the card by adhering the sentiment to the card front with Precision Glue .

I hope you enjoyed today’s cards and video! Thank you so much for stopping by!
