Happy Saturday! We're back with our third and final Favorites from the Vault giveaway opportunity!
During a recent warehouse cleaning session, we were happily surprised to find some hidden treasures -- a handful of past kit items. We gathered every last piece from a few select kits, and now you have a chance to win some SOLD OUT My Monthly Hero kit products!
We may have saved the best for last. You decide...
Who remembers the very FIRST My Monthly Hero kit? The month, October...the year, 2015. Who also remembers how quickly that kit sold out? (Back then, there were no My Monthly Hero subscriptions offered.) The beautiful color layered poinsettias came onto the scene and were a smashing hit right out of the gate -- so much so, that the kit sold out in just a few hours and our website experienced some hiccups due to the heavy traffic. We've learned and grown since then, but will never forget the excitement and joy of that very first kit. It holds a special place in our hearts as we now celebrate the MMH program's 5th anniversary with you.
As the ultimate throwback, today we have 5 sets of stamps and dies from the October 2015 kit to give away to 5 lucky winners!
TO ENTER: Comment on this blog post and let us know one piece of stamping wisdom that you wish you'd known when you started stamping! The entry deadline is Thursday, October 29 at 11:59pm PT. We will announce the 5 randomly chosen winners here on the blog.
Now we get to announce the winners from last weekend's Favorites from the Vault giveaway!
The 5 randomly chosen winners will each receive stamps and dies from the sold out October 2018 kit:
• Stephanie Benoit
• Julia Dvorak
• Mary Gilmer
• Tracy Kent
• Sandy Koca
Congratulations to all! Please send an email to info@heroarts.com to claim your prizes and include "Vault Winner" in the subject line.

I adore this poinsettia stamp kit! I’ve been looking for a better or equal poinsettia image since I missed out on this kit, and I have not found one that I liked even nearly as much! Wish me luck in winning the contest for a set – I would treat it with care and happiness!
The very best tip I have ever seen, beginner or not, is the dryer sheet trick with dies! Run the die and paper through your Big Shot or equivalent, then take 4 dryer sheets and fold in half to get a thickness of 8 sheets, take paper and die together and place the sandwich on top of the dryer sheets with paper side down (die facing up) and run entire sandwich through your Big Shot again. Remove the sandwich from machine, and gently peel paper away from die. The result is just wonderful!
Thank you so much for the chance to win! What a beautiful kit that first kit was! I wish I had known about stamp conditioning (preparing the stamp prior to stamping it the first time).
I wish someone would have told me that stamping is addicting! Haha! But seriously, I think one tidbit of advice that I wish someone would have given me is to take my time with my craft. It takes time to get the stamping to look great.
I wish I knew then what I didn’t know then was to not worry about being perfect! The great Jennifer Mcguire taught me that it’s handmade not Hallmark! Thank you for this awesome prize opportunity!
I wish that I would have known to tap, tap your stamp on the ink pad instead of mashing it on there.
