a2z Scrapbooking | Hero Arts I'm a Puffer for You

Hero Arts Puffer to You 
 How cute are puffer fish? They're up there with sea horses on my favorite fish list, all though I don't think I've ever seen a puffed puffer, have you?

 I used the new Hero Arts I'm a Puffer for You stamp set to create a a bright and cheery underwater scene. You could totally use a rainbow of non-traditional bright / neon colors for the fish, but I loved the look of the orange yellow so much I went with it for all of them. After I stamped and colored all the puffers where I wanted them I arranged a semi-random pattern of waves and bubbles, before stamping and heat embossing my sentiment on top. To finish I splashed some wink of stella droplets over the whole thing for a glimmering water look. A full list of supplies used can be found below.

Hero Arts | With Sympathy | Color Layering Fuschia



Hero Arts Color Layering Fuschia
Hi Everyone! Kristina here today playing with the new Hero Arts Color Layering Fuschia. These are up there with one of my favorite flowers. We get several hanging baskets of them each year, the colors are gorgeous and the hummingbirds eat them up! I debated doing a card with just a bunch of them cascading down from the top, which I think would be really pretty, but for today went with something a little cleaner.

I started with a white cardstock panel & used my clarity brush to blend on an ombre of purple inks, and then trimmed down with a rectangle die. For the fuschias, I die cut a circle and did my stamping directly onto it before adhering to the panel with 3d foam. For my sentiment I die cut one last piece, and stamped/embossing in white. Attach everything to a card base and there you have it!

A Blog Named Hero 5th Anniversary Celebration Blog Hop!



Hi Friends! Wow - I feel like it's been forever! My blog has been slow these days, for good reason, my dad had a pretty massive stroke a year ago this month which has required me to care for him full time ever since. I tried very hard to keep up with my crafting, but when I could even find the time (and courage) I felt like my work and quality was suffering. I took a step back from most of my design teams and have pretty much been laying low waiting for a surge of energy and motivation. It's hard to believe that the one thing that was always my "escape" is the thing coming hardest to me, but the crafty world is forgiving and will be there when I get myself back together (all though I know I am missing so many seriously good releases). BUT when I got the email from A Blog Named Hero about this event there was no way I could pass up the invitation.

If you're coming here from the hop and don't know me, I'm a Hero Arts fanatic and was on the 2016 A Blog Named Hero design team. After being a fan of A Blog Named Hero basically since their inception, being on their design team was an honor! Without further adieu,  I would like to congratulate A Blog Named Hero on 5 wonderful years!

I went with a Hero Arts stamp set that I don't feel like gets enough love from me. I've only every used the sentiments and cake, and wanted to mix it up and try to get a few more stamps in the set inky!! And since this is a party, I went all party up in here!

I started with the banner stamp, I didn't have my Hero Arts ombre inks on me so I used a new Recollection Brand ombre ink (that I do not at all recommend, super splotchy, buy Hero Arts) and made a few rows of Banners before getting all confetti and party hats! Keeping with the bright theme I used my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens to color in my images. I stamped some confetti and added some sequins for a full on party explosion.

Now, The 5th anniversary celebration blog hop takes place across today AND tomorrow and what is a blog hop without a

Giveaway

I have a quick and simple mostly digital Valentines Day card for you today using Hero Arts Words of Love digital. Sometimes time just gets away from you and you need a quick and easy card to send out it in a jiffy, and this is it! Easily mass produced and ready to embellish > send.

The digital kit comes with both brushes and image files. I choose the brushes and created an Ombre background with the little candy hearts.

Printed this baby off, trimmed it down, and embellished with some sequins!

(a2z scrapbooking} Hero Arts Color Layering Butterflies



Hi Friends! Yesterday I was on the a2zs Scrapbooking Blog playing with my new set of Hero Arts Color Layering Butterfly Stamps. I decided instead of layering I wanted something a little more bold, but simple, so I only used the background layer of one of the butterflies to repeatedly stamp assorted color butterflies in Hero Arts Dye Inks. I used the same ink colors and my new Clarity Brushes to color a strip of trimmed off paper the same colors as the butterflies, and used that to line the edge of the card after mounting on some glitter paper. Popped on a sentiment, and there you have it!
