January 2025 Extraordinary Extras: Love Note Collection

Welcome to our showcase of the new Extraordinary Extras for January! Each month, part of our Hero Studio release includes an assortment of new products that complement the monthly theme and Card Kit . We call these Extraordinary Extras. Unlike the Hero Studio subscription products, Extraordinary Extras are restocked in the shop if they sell out. The Love Note collection this month features two Fancy Dies, a clear set with coordinating dies, a stencil and some cute clay heart embellishments.

This first card uses the Love & Hearts Fancy Dies. This set consists of three script messages and a heart cluster that are a perfect for all your love-themed projects. Kelly used the diecut inlay technique and repeated the heart cluster three times to create a background to fill the entire card front.

The Lots of Love Stencil features a bold, repeating LOVE pattern. This stencil is perfect for ink-blended backgrounds or try it with Hero Paste for added texture. Add a little interest by stenciling the pattern at an angle. You could also cut out the "love" word and use it as a stand-alone message for a card.

And finally, we have the unique Folded Love Notes Fancy Die. Use the score lines created by the die to fold your cardstock into a 3-inch square note that unfolds to reveal a fun message inside. The Love Note Messages set is designed to work perfectly with this die. Personalized coupons are a thoughtful, creative, and budget-friendly way to show someone how much you care. 


We appreciate you stopping by today. Happy stamping!
