(This is my 2nd post for today - please scroll down or click HERE to see my very exciting news!!!)
Hello, and welcome to the 2013 Hero Arts Catalog Blog Hop. I hope you had a great time at the incredible Maile Belles blog!
I am so excited today is finally here... I've been looking forward to sharing the new stamps with you for AGES and I am sure you will be as thrilled as me by what you see. So many new goodies to choose from... eeek!!!
Anyway... if you have stumbled upon this hop, I urge you to start from the beginning (HERE). Otherwise, on to my cards. :)
My first card features the new Fantastic Birthday clear set. Believe me, you're going to LOVE this set. I certainly do. I can see myself using every single stamp in this set FREQUENTLY. All the papers on this card are from Echo Park's Neapolitan collection pack which I thought was very appropriate given the ice cream theme. :) I added the wiggle eyes and little smile to my ice-cream, plus a bit of button twine. I love paper piecing. :)
And my second card features a cute stamp from a new set called My Favorite. I love this stamp - that sweet washi tape on top is adorable don't you think. Again, I used the Neapolitan papers and some yellow Doodle twine to finish off my card. A simple but fun one I think.
So, some colorful creations for today, right? :) Check out ALL the new stamps HERE.
Great news - Hero Arts is giving away several prize packages to random commenters chosen from ALL the blogs featured today. Leave comments at all the blogs you visit and your chances of winning will be much higher. :)
