Hero Arts My Monthly Hero January 2022 Kit and Add Ons + Giveaway!



The Hero Arts January release was inspired by a trip to Paris, and the locks left by lovers and dreamers on the bridges there. This month's kit is great to get started on your Valentine's Day projects, but can be used to show friendship and appreciation throughout the year. The focal point is a gorgeous cover plate die, with ornate detail surrounding a keyhole. It can be used alone, or layered over any number of beautiful scenes. To get you started, we included a lovely Color Layering stamp set featuring a rope swing covered in inviting greenery. There are ink cubes which work well with the stamps, and the kit is rounded out with some iridescent red gems.


I had SO MUCH FUN with this kit and add ons! I made my own conversation hearts with a small heart die and then sentiments from the V Day Mini Messages Stamp Set.


I love using the Chain Linked Fancy Die for an element of shine and texture behind the Peonies I made with the Peonies Bunch.


I love these dies from the main kit and this key hole die could be used in so many ways!


And I love the combination of chain link background with the locks dies to mimic the pedestrian bridge over the Seine.


And coloring these sweet flower girls was something different from all the dies. They look like little story book characters.


Speaking of bold, graphic dies, the Heart and Blossoms Cover Plate Die is so fun!


I used some of the dies from the Lifestyle Cupid to create this little clean and simple Valentine's day card.


This Key to My Heart Stamp Set gives a chance to color rather than just die cut. And again that Chain Link die is such a cool backdrop.


You can check out all of these supplies and cards in today's video:
