Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Countdown, Day 1 (+GIVEAWAY!)

2 Jun

Good morning!  We’re continuing the countdown to the Hero Arts June My Monthly Hero kit today and I’m sharing a card using the new premium kit!

Today I’m using the premium kit for this month and did a little ombre stenciling with Hero Hues inks in shades of teal and blue!  I also used gold paste for my top layer for a little extra shimmer and shine!  Finally I finished the card with a sentiment and embellishments from the kit!

And that’s it for me!  Head over to the Hero Arts blog for more inspiration using the June My Monthly Hero kit all weekend long!!  And then I’ll be back Monday with the full kit reveal!!

For a chance to win a kit before you can buy it, just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post. We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from all the comments left across all countdown posts. The winner will be announced first thing Monday morning, June 5th, before the kit launches at 10am Pacific. The more you comment, the more chances to win!

Thanks so much for visiting and enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
