July My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #2 + Giveaway!

MMH Countdown to Creativity

Hello! We're back with another look at the July My Monthly Hero kit! This wonderful kit launches at 1pm eastern/10am pacific on Tuesday, July 5! Today Clare shares a beautiful idea for using the kit. Do you see what she used to create her background? It's a kit exclusive, and we'll tell you more about it tomorrow! Stay tuned!

For my card today, I used some of Lucy's super fun sequins, included in the kit, to create a shaker card.

To top off the shaker card, I stamped a vellum panel, heat embossing the jellyfish with some white powder, and then stamping some bubbles and mini jellyfish with clear sparkle embossing powder.

I then heat embossed the sentiment, and topped the card off with some enamel dots!
