May My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #4 + Giveaway!

MMH Countdown to Creativity

Hello and welcome to another day of May My Monthly Hero ideas, leading up to the launch on Monday, May 2 at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific! Today Yana is joining us for another peek at the kit. Take it away, Yana!

I believe that one can never be too kind to others and that kindness needs to be rewarded by saying Thank You or better yet, giving a simple Thank You card. The May My Monthly Hero kit is filled with numerous Thank You and Appreciation messages that make saying Thank You a very simple task.

To create a card I'm sharing here I started by stamping Thank You in hero_product_link sku="AF308" text="Tide Pool to Navy"] ombre ink onto a piece of white cardstock. I layered it under a window die cut and foam mounted that onto a card base. The background for the card was stamped using hero_product_link sku="CG678" text="Floral Bold Prints"] stamp and hero_product_link sku="AF207" text="Butter Bar"]  ink.

I also heat embossed an additional For Always Being So Kind sentiment in hero_product_link sku="PW110" text="White Embossing Powder"] onto black card and foam mounted that under my main sentiment.

To finish this card I stamped several hearts from the stamp set from my kit and adhered a few sequins.

Be sure to stop by later today for another look at this gorgeous kit!
