Hi everybody and welcome to the Feberuary 2021 My Monthly Hero kit release from Hero Arts.
In case you aren't familiar with the My Monthly Hero Kit... It's a kit that comes on the first Monday of every month and has an incredibly high value but is offered at a discounted rate. This month's kit is valued at $70 but you can pick it up for just $34.99. There is a catch though... Once the kit is sold out it's gone for good. You can put dibs on a kit of your own by subscribing to receive the kit each month. Each month there are add-on products that match the theme of the kit too and subscribers get the perk of being able to add those extra products for no additional shipping costs. You can check out the February kit HERE and the entire add-on release HERE.
This month's kit is a tropical, Hawaiian themed kit and is so much fun. To make my card I used one of the add-on stamps called, Hibiscus Flowers Bold Prints, to stamp my background in Soft Pool ink.
Then, I stamped the tree and some flowers in black ink and colored them with my copic markers. I stamped my sentiments on gray cardstock and cut them into wide strips which I adhered using foam adhesive.
I glued the background onto my gray cardbase.
To finish my card off I glued the tree and flowers to my card. Then I added some clear enamel dots to embellish the card.
The second card that I'm sharing today is the card that I shared for my Countdown post a few days ago. This is another fun example of how you can use this kit.
I ink blended the background using reactive inks and splattered it with white metallic ink.
Ok, that is it for me today but before I go I want to make sure you know about the giveaway...
GIVEAWAY: Hero Arts will give away one $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday, February 7th at 11:59pm pacific, and the winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog the following week. All you need to do to enter is leave me a comment below.
To continue on the hop you can head over to Michelle's blog to see what beautiful things she's made with this kit. If you prefer to see the whole list of blog hoppers I've got that listed for you below.
Have an awesome day!
