September My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #4 + Giveaway!

MMH Countdown to Creativity

Welcome to Day 2 of our Countdown to Creativity, leading up to the launch of our September My Monthly Hero kit on Tuesday, September 6 at 1pm eastern! Today we're showing how you can combine the optional add-ons with the kit's contents, or use them on their own! Let's join Clare for the first idea, and we'll be back with more later today!

I've mentioned it before, but one of my favorite places to go for inspiration is Pinterest, so when I saw THIS gorgeous pin the other day, I just knew this month's kit and add-on would work perfectly in recreating a card version of it.

This card is pretty straightforward - first, make all of the die cuts. For the clusters, I trimmed pieces of the branch die from the main kit, and then rearranged them.

I topped the card with hero_product_link sku="CH125" text="some white pearls"], and voila! Done!

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 of the comments left across all countdown posts, and announce the winner first thing Tuesday morning, September 6, before the kit launches at 1pm eastern. The more you comment, the more chances to win!

Now I'm curious - what's your favorite place to go for inspiration?
