HERO ARTS MY MONTHLY HERO February BLOG HOP + GIVEAWAY!


Have you seen all the buzz on social media? Hero Arts is now offering a main Classic or Premium kit each month and will still be offering tons of add ons.


The theme this month is beautiful butterflies! And there are so many supplies to make your butterfly cardmaking a breeze! In the Classic Kit you'll find a layering stencil, die, sentiment set and more!


The Premium Kit contains everything from the Classic kit plus some extra goodies like these rub on transfers...


and detailed butterfly dies!


The add ons this month are stunning and feature many perfect sentiments and backdrops to your cards.


I even tried my hand at a mixed media card with stamping over a stamp resist!


One of my favorites is Fluttering Butterflies background stamp! I recently purchased some Hero Arts Gold Glitter embossing powder and I loved combining those two!


Plus how fun are the Looking Glass Layering Butterfly dies! They make it so easy to create a detailed card with very little work!


Phew! You know I can't stop once I get going with Hero Arts monthly releases! 
In today's video I am sharing the difference between the Classic and Premium Kits and sharing all of this month's add ons as well and all of these cards!


Now, onto the giveaway!

Hero Arts will give away a $50 gift card, drawn from the comments left across the hop. Enter by Sunday, February 12th at 11:59pm Pacific, and the winner will be announced on the Hero Arts blog the following week.

Color Matching Inks to Patterned Paper


If you've ever struggled with matching the color of inks to patterned paper, you need to try Catherine Pooler patterned paper and ink.


Catherine Pooler's patterned paper pads indicate which ink colors will match perfectly!


And if you download their free color wheel, you might be able to find a few more colors that will work too!


In today's video I share how find an additional color not listed on the patterned paper.


I also share several ways to use patterned paper in card making.


And I show ways to combine stamping and patterned paper on cards.


Although I work with the Paper Hearts paper pack, these ideas apply to all Catherine Pooler patterned papers!


Check out the video here:




And the supplies I used are listed down below. Thanks for stopping by!
