Hero Arts 2014 Catalog Hop With the Hero Arts Hostesses!
Welcome to the Hero Arts Hostess Hop, featuring fabulous stamps from the new 2014 release!
- If you’ve been following along, you’ve just arrived from the blog of the super sweet and talented Sue McRae.
- Hero Arts will be awarding prizes from randomly drawn comments. For a chance to win, simply comment on ANY of the stops along the hop on ANY day, including each day’s starting post at the Hero Club Blog. The more comments you leave, the better your chance of winning! I also have a giveaway listed at the bottom of this post.
First a rainbow birthday card with the Bubble Confetti Stencil and the No One Like You stamp:
And a second much more neutral using the Zebra Print stamp. To make this card I simply swiped my stamp with a white dauber, and went over it with daubers in Wet Cement, Charcoal and Cup O'Joe:
And speaking of daubers, I used a few of the new bright colors (Ultra Pink, Lemon Yellow, Lime Green) along with Orange Soda and Tide Pool to create this art journal page along with some Hero Arts stencils and the Leave A Trail stamp.
There is a GIVEAWAY right here on my blog as well. I will be picking a winner next Friday to win some of my personal favorites from the new 2014 release. Are you a follower of my blog? Are you are follower on my Facebook artist page? Just leave a separate comment for each follow (one for blog and an additional if you follow on Facebook) and I will choose a winner!
This is the last stop on today's hop. To see all the stops on the hop today GO HERE. If you missed any of the hop stops this week, you will want to see all the wonderful creations by the Hero Hostesses:
