Hello and welcome as we continue the countdown to the release of the September My Monthly Hero Kit! Release day is Tuesday, September 4th at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific. This month we are one day later than normal due to the Labor Day holiday, so the kit releases tomorrow instead of today. Now let's join Michelle for another look at this wonderful kit.
Hello there, I hope you have been enjoying the countdown so far. I absolutely love the autumnal feel of the kit this month. Fall, or autumn, as we call it in the UK, is one of my favourite seasons. I love to see the leaves on the trees change colour and everything starts feeling more cosy. Although this kit leads itself to rich colours, I still wanted to keep my card quite light and airy.
I started off by stamping one of the vases from the main stamp set on to white cardstock with Intense Black Ink. I made a mask for this and then stamped the lantern plant/Physalis on top. The mask was removed and the image coloured using Copic Markers. I fussy cut the image out, but there are dies included in the kit for both images, I just wanted the image to be one piece.
I took a white card base and embossed three circle dies from the Nesting Infinity Circles Dies on to the front panel. I then stamped the sentiment on top. The image was added with foam tape. To finish off, I added a few sequins from the Champagne and Sunshine mixes.

I love the layout of this card and the sequins add a sparkle that is not to overwhelming.
I love the dimension to this card – the circles are a great way to highlight the lovely vase and spray of flowers!
The embossed circles highlight the vase and stem beautifully!
Simple and elegant.
I really like the simple lines of this card. The three nesting dies really draw your eye to the flower itself. Can’t wait til tomorrow so I can view the whole September Kit.
So looking forward to gettting my kit soon!
I love the way you colored the card and the embossed circles really finished the look. Great!
This stamp is such a great one. I can’t wait until this kit becomes available.
I love the colors you chose for this card. The dry embossing finishes off the design nicely.
Lovely card Michelle! The softer colors are nice and I love the 3 embossed circles drawing your eye right to the pretty Chinese lanterns!
