September My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #6 + Giveaway!

September My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #6 + Giveaway!

Hello and welcome as we continue the countdown to the release of the September My Monthly Hero Kit! Release day is Tuesday, September 4th at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific. This month we are one day later than normal due to the Labor Day holiday, so the kit releases tomorrow instead of today. Now let's join Michelle for another look at this wonderful kit.

Hello there, I hope you have been enjoying the countdown so far. I absolutely love the autumnal feel of the kit this month. Fall, or autumn, as we call it in the UK, is one of my favourite seasons. I love to see the leaves on the trees change colour and everything starts feeling more cosy. Although this kit leads itself to rich colours, I still wanted to keep my card quite light and airy.

Best Wishes by Michelle Short for Hero Arts

I started off by stamping one of the vases from the main stamp set on to white cardstock with Intense Black Ink. I made a mask for this and then stamped the lantern plant/Physalis on top. The mask was removed and the image coloured using Copic Markers. I fussy cut the image out, but there are dies included in the kit for both images, I just wanted the image to be one piece.

Best Wishes by Michelle Short for Hero Arts

I took a white card base and embossed three circle dies from the Nesting Infinity Circles Dies on to the front panel. I then stamped the sentiment on top. The image was added with foam tape. To finish off, I added a few sequins from the Champagne and Sunshine mixes.

Win a kit before you can buy it! Just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post! We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from all the comments left across all countdown posts, and announce the winner first thing Tuesday morning, September 4, before the kit launches at 1pm Eastern. The more you comment, the more chances to win!

Good luck and happy stamping!

Love how you used the infinity circle dies to create a frame for the die cut image. Lovely card.

Cute card… boy, HA is being secretive about this kit! LOL. We’ve only seen one stamp and one die, I think… Can’t wait to see the whole kit!

Lovely card, Michelle. Your dry embossing with the infinity circle dies frames your image beautifully! I can hardly wait to see the whole kit tomorrow.

This is really going to be a surprise kit when it releases! All I have seen are lanterns, fancy frame die and watercolor sampler. Ugh.. The suspense.
