A Blog Named Hero Challenge: Inspired By (Another Crafter)

Hi there crafty friends! It’s Linda from A Blog Named Hero, and I’m here to introduce this month’s challenge to you! This time we want to challenge you to make projects that are:

So you can be inspired by any of the wonderful crafters in our amazing industry, tell us who they are! We’d love to know who inspires you - it can be a Hero Arts designer, another blogger, anyone!

Here’s my card:

I was inspired by Jessica Frost-Ballas, who always makes cards that are totally different from the one before, but I notice a trend of beautiful colour combinations, simplicity and hints of gold, which I think is elegance-plus!!

I used a couple of alcohol inks, and then heat embossed the cute-as-pie image from the Mail Delivery by The Stamping Village stamp set, using glittery gold embossing powder. I love the simple elegance this card has, and it was super easy to achieve.

I hope you’ll join us in the challenge, as always you have the chance to win a gift voucher from our delightful sponsors, Hero Arts!

Thanks so much for joining me!

Crafty hugs,
