A Blog Named Hero: Hero Arts Love + a giveaway!

7 Nov

Good evening!  I’m over at A Blog Named Hero with a trio of holiday cards celebrating all things Hero Arts.  Here’s a sneak peek:

I was very inspired by the beautiful cards recently created by Amy and Suzanne for the Hero Arts blog!

And a quick happy mail update!  I just got an order of postage stamps and I think I’m officially ready for my personal happy mail challenge in November!  It’s a little early but aren’t those Peanuts stamps cute!?

November 2015 Total Cards Mailed: 24

I’m also entering this card into the Hero Arts Holiday Card Challenge!

Anyway, thanks for visiting!  Make sure to check out my giveaway below and have a fantastic weekend!

Giveaway:

Just a reminder…I ordered an extra of the new Hero Arts Acts of Kindness stamp set that was designed for Jennifer’s challenge and I would love to find it a good home!  Leave a comment on any of my blog posts between November 1st and 10th for a chance to win.  You can comment everyday for a total of 10 entries and I’ll announce a winner on November 11th!

    It’s funny how a stamp set doesn’t speak to me. And then I see something you or one of your great artist peers make and then I NEED that set. Lol. Thanks for sharing your time and talent.

    Lovely cards! Funny that the stamp itself didn’t speak to me, but your cards are marvelous!

    I am loving sending out cards to people that can use a little kindness. It has made me stop and think about people I know.

    Kindness has been the mantra that I try to live by. Using this stamp on cards I give to others would be a real promotion of that theme.
