Hero Arts February 2021 My Monthly Hero: Countdown and a Giveaway!

Hi everybody! It's time to count down the days until the next My Montly Hero release from Hero Arts and boy is it a fun one! My sneak peek card is full of tropical flowers and paradise and is totally reminding me how much I need a tropical vacation. 

I started my card out by ink blending my background panel in Splash and Blue Hawaii Reactive Inks. Then I splattered it with White Metallic Ink. I popped the background up on a black card base using foam tape for extra dimension.

I colored the toucan, birds of paradise, flowers and leaves with copic markers and cut them out using the coordinating dies.

I arranged all the pieces to cover the bottom of the blue panel and glued them on using glue dots and foam adhesive so that I could add different levels of dimension. To finish my card off I stamped the sentiment in pigment ink and heat embossed it using clear embossing powder.
