A Blog Named Hero with Lawn Fawn

 Hello everyone!

This month A Blog Named Hero is collaborating with one of my favorite companies which is Lawn Fawn!  Make sure you stop over at A Blog Named Hero's blog to get some inspiration all month long!  And join in on the challenge which is "Critters"!

Here is my card:

I am using the sentiment from Hero Arts "Many Everyday Messages" the dog is from the Hero Arts set Woof.  The stamp set I am using from Lawn Fawn is called "Jump for Joy".  The tree and the leaves are from Lawn Fawn "Leafy Tree Backdrop - Portrait".  The paper is also from Lawn Fawn's newly released 6x6 paper pack Knock on Wood.

My card is an A2 card, I created the background by using the MFT Mini Cloud Edges using Hero Arts Soft Pool ink.  The tree frame and green hills were die cut from the Lawn Fawn Leafy Tree Backdrop - Portrait using the paper from the Lawn Fawn 6x6 paper pack Knock on Wood.  I colored all the images with copics.  The leaves and the acorn I die cut from the Lawn Fawn Leafy Tree Backdrop - Portrait die with scraps in my stash.  The sentiment was stamped with Hero Arts Intense Black ink and die cut with MFT Slanted Sentiment Strips.

Closer look at the card!

A Blog Named Hero with WOW!

Hello everyone!

I am here with A Blog Named Hero and we are collaborating with WOW this month!  WOW has many products, today I am featuring their embossing powders, embossing glitters  and foil.  I had so much fun using their products, I could not just make one card.  I have three here to share with you today.  Please stop by A Blog Named Hero's blog tomorrow for more inspiration and a new challenge!

Here are my cards:

All my cards are A2 cards.  This card,  I am using Hero Arts "Drippy Lines Bold Print" background stamp.  I inked the stamp with WOW embossing pad and then embossed with WOW "Unicorn Magic".  I also stamped the butterfly twice from the Hero Arts "Die and Stamp - Butterfly" and embossed it with the WOW "Unicorn Magic" then I colored the butterfly with Prismacolor Colored Pencils and added some clear Wink of Stella. I then stamped the Happy Birthday from the Hero Arts "Year Round Sentiments" with the WOW "Metallic Gold Rich" Super Fine embossing powder and adhered it to my card.  I finished my card off by adding some sequins.

My next card is one of my favorite stamps by Hero Art called "Leafy Vines".  I again inked the stamp using the WOW embossing pad and added the WOW glitter embossing powder called "Princess Pink".  I added the sentiment from the Hero Arts "Many Everyday Messages" stamp set and embossed it with WOW "Red Pearl".  A clean and simple card, but elegant!  This card would be perfect for a wedding.

My last card, I am using the WOW "Bright Silver" Foil, this picture doesn't show all the details of the beautiful foil.  I don't own a laser printer, so I stamped the Hero Arts Leafy Vine stamp with black Archival Ink on some white cardstock and took the image to Staples and had them make a few copies on their laser copier (they didn't charge me anything because I brought my own paper).  I then added the foil to the laser copy and ran it through my Laminator.  I added my sentiment from Hero Arts "Many Everyday Messages" stamp set.  I embossed it with the WOW "Opaque Seafoam White".

I hope I have inspired you in some way to get those embossing materials out and have fun!  Thank you so much for stopping by, please come back again soon.
