Welcome to Created by JB & the Hero Arts Blog Hop! If you are just tuning in, you can find all the details & beginning of the hop on the Hero Arts Blog. I am so excited & honored to share some cards using new stamps from the Hero Arts 2010 line...thank you, Hero Arts, for including me today!! This card uses the clear Truly Appreciated & Sweet Wonderful You sets.
Stamps: Hero Arts CL380 Truly Appreciated & CL381 Sweet Wonderful You; Ink: Memories Black & Ranger Distress Ink (Vintage Photo); Patterned paper: Cosmo Cricket (Earth Love); Cardstock: Hero Arts Sunshine Notecards & DMD Inc. (kraft); Jewels: Hero Arts; Pearls: Basic Grey; Other: Sizzix Top Note Die & PrismaColor colored pencils
Please note: I altered the little girl stamp by cutting out her head separately. I tilted her head a bit & popped it up with foam tape.
My next card features the Silhouette Meadow Flowers woodblock stamp.
Stamps: Hero Arts K5340 Silhouette Meadow Flowers; Ink: Ranger Distress Ink (Peeled Paint) & ColorBox Queue (Rouge); Embossing powder: American Crafts (clear); Cardstock: Hero Arts Blush Notecards; Ribbon: reasonableribbon.com; Cuttlebug & Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels One
My final project is a treat bag using the new Speckled Ornaments clear set. I love this set! So many possibilities with this one. I am loving the Truly Appreciated clear set too...especially the "you're so special" sentiment!
Stamps: Hero Arts CL380 Truly Appreciated & CL401 Speckled Ornaments; Ink: Ranger Distress Ink (Vintage Photo); Embossing powder: Stampendous (Detail White); Other: Sizzix Top Note Die, Flower (Maya Road) & www.clearbags.com
