November My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #5 + Giveaway!

November My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #5 + Giveaway!

Welcome back to the countdown! The November My Monthly Hero Kit will be released Monday, November 5th at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific. Nichol is here with another look at this fun kit!

Today I'm sharing an Advent Calendar card featuring stamps and dies from the November main kit. The cute little images fit perfectly inside the ornament window openings.

I started by stamping the ornament cling background from the main kit on red cardstock with Versamark Ink and heat embossed the images with white embossing powder. I think it's easier to use a larger piece of cardstock to stamp the images, then use the coordinating ornament die from kit to line up the window openings and die cut the entire panel.

Using the ornament die as a guide, I placed the small images from the kit in a MISTI and stamped the images on smooth white cardstock to layer behind the ornament window openings. The images were stamped with a combination of Hero Arts Intense Black Ink, Strawberry Ink, Emerald Green Ink, Butter Bar Ink, and Cup O' Joe Ink.

Details were added to some of the images with Nuvo Crystal Drops.

The window panel was adhered over the small stamped images on the front of the card with foam adhesive.

The design was finished by stamping a greeting from the Winter Holiday Messages Stamp Set inside the card.

I hope this has inspired you to try your own mini card Advent designs with the awesome November Kit!
