2021 Summer Catalog Sneak Peek #1 + Giveaway

Our new Summer Catalog is coming soon -- this Thursday, May 20, to be exact! Today we're "berry" excited to kick off three days of sneak peeks leading up to Thursday's catalog reveal, product launch, and blog hop. Stay tuned to the blog this week to see the newest of the new, as well as a gift card GIVEAWAY each day!

We can't think of a better way to get started than with a juicy peek that's sweet as can be...

On pages 16 & 17 of the catalog you'll find two clear stamp sets that will bring a bit of Summer's sweetness to your creations! Color Layering Strawberries (CM539) is a 4" x 6" set that allows you to create a plump cluster of berries by layering multiple images with complementary shades of color. The final image appears textured, dimensional, and good enough to eat! Is your mouth watering?

CM540 Hero Florals Strawberries Line Art is a smaller 3" x 4" clear set that pairs perfectly with Color Layering Strawberries, and can also be used on its own. The lovely line art illustrations are sized so that you can add an outline to your color layered berries and leaves, or you can stamp them separately and color them in any number of ex-straw-dinary ways!

Both sets include a variety of mixed font sentiments that you'll be able to use throughout the year for birthdays, to say thank you, miss you, and more. We know you're going to love these fresh additions and can't wait to see all of the sweet things you create with them in the seasons ahead.

GIVEAWAYLeave a comment on this post (one per person) and we will randomly select a winner from the comments to receive a $20 gift certificate to the Hero Arts Online Store! Please comment by Friday, May 21 at 11:59pm PT.

Look for our 2021 Summer Catalog products at your favorite retailers and in the Hero Arts shop on May 20. If your favorite retailer doesn’t carry Hero Arts, be sure to let them know that you’d like them to!

Thanks so much for stopping by. We’ll be back tomorrow with another peek and giveaway opportunity.

Wishing you a berry sweet day,
