It's time for our final countdown peek before the release of the May My Monthly Hero kit! The kit will be available tomorrow, Monday, May 6 at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific. Now let’s join Nichol, who is sharing another look at this fun kit!
Hello friends! Today I'm sharing a crafting happiness card inspired by a couple of quilting/sewing projects I've made multiple times. I adore the look of rainbow colored pencils so I stamped, colored, and die cut many, many colored pencils using an image from the May main kit and created a double border along the bottom of my card!
The background of the card was stamped on a white card background with the add-on Crafting Tools Bold Prints using Soft Granite Ink. Sentiments from the main kit were stamped along the top half of the card using Black Ink.
The colored pencil image from the main kit was stamped 40 times on Bristol Smooth cardstock, colored in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, die cut, layered, and adhered along the bottom edge of the background with foam adhesive. The foam adhesive give the border a bit of dimension from the busy background.
Hearts from the main kit were stamped on Bristol Smooth cardstock, colored in with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers, die cut and adhered above the sentiment as shown. The hearts were finished with Crystal Lacquer for a bit of glossy shine!

Oh, this is so cute! All those pencils! And the rainbow!
This card reminds me of the three sets of colored pencils and watercolor pencils I recently bought. It is great to think that I can show my own crafts on the cards I make. Monday can’t come soon enough.
I have absolutely enjoyed these sneaks! So looking forward to owning this kit. Will there be an add-on for the Peek-a-boo die??? Will there be more Mini Sayings to spread joy …
Love the colored pencils, but I really like a lot the background stamp!!!
The sentiments in the kit are just what I always think about writing when crafting.
I love the colorful and dimensional border of pencils on Nichol’s fantastic card!
