To celebrate the launch, we've gathered together our Creative Team and some wonderful guests for a blog hop! Be sure to read all the way down to the bottom of this post for hop details, including information about our giveaway. But first, we have some inspiration to share from a couple of our Creative Team artists. First up is Kelly...

There are two new Peek-A-Boo sets with this release and they are SO fun! I had a blast playing with the Gift Peek-A-Boo Infinity Parts stamp set for my card today. It pairs perfectly with our Square Peek-A-Book Doors Mini Infinity Dies to create easy and fun interactive cards!

I stamped four of the gift images with black ink and colored them using Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. Then I lined up the Square Doors Mini Dies and die cut the doors.

The new Comfort and Joy Messages set is a great pair for the Peek-A-Book windows. There are many different sized messages and icons that worked perfect for my card. To line up the stamping behind the doors, I traced each of the square windows with a pencil on a Dove White Top Folded Card, then stamped using coordinating colors of inks.

I popped up the stamped gift panel on my card base to create some dimension when you open the windows, but if you are going for a more mail-friendly design, just avoid the foam adhesive. 

And next, some ideas from Jayne...

Like many of you, I love autumn, warm fall colors, and seasonal stamp sets. The adorable new Fawn and Friends stamp set is perfect for creating fall and winter cards with the sweetest animals and elegant everyday sentiments.

I started by inking a masked, free form shape with Creamsicle, Lemon Drop, Green Apple and Pool Party Reactive inks on Dove White cardstock and then splattering the inked shape with water. Before securing the panel to a Sand Side Folded card with foam tape, I die cut a tag from the panel with a Tag Infinity Die. Then, I tied the tag with a twine bow and also secured it to the card.

Using Intens-ified Black ink, I stamped an animal from this set on white cardstock and colored it with colored pencils. I die cut the image with the coordinating Fawn and Friends Frame Cuts and then added the image to the tag. For a final detail, I added a trio of Sunset Enamel Dots to the card.

Now it's time to hop! We have an amazing list of artists sharing projects from the winter release today! Be sure to visit each blog on the list and leave a little love - we will be giving away three $50 shopping sprees to the Hero Arts online store, randomly drawn from comments left across all blogs in the hop.
