I shared this pastel watercolor card using the My Monthly Hero kit on my blog this weekend:
And today I’m sharing a bold and bright card using the same kit and my most favorite add-ons ever!
I love all the playful images included in the kit and wanted to make another background but one that was a bit bolder and brighter than my first card! Luckily there are two fantastic stencils in the add-ons that were perfect for my vision! I started by placing Nebula Cluster stencil on a panel of Lapis cardstock and blended Cornflower, Indigo, and Nautical ink over the stencil. Then I lifted the stencil and blended the same three colors lightly directly on the panel to soften the stenciled design and add a little more contrast. Then I placed the Star Cluster stencil over the panel and applied a thin layer of Gold Hero Paste over the stencil to create those shiny stars. I removed the stencil and let the panel dry completely.
While it was drying I stamped a bunch of images from the kit and colored them with copic markers. I die-cut them with the coordinating dies and also stamped and gold heat-embossed a sentiment from the kit. Once the panel was dry I adhered the images with foam mounting tape and added a little clear lacquer to the helmets to finish the card!
Finally I’m sharing one more card using a few of the new add-ons!
I decided to keep this one more clean and simple and inked the Celestial Bold Prints with Thistle, Splash, and Pool Party reactive ink cubes before stamping it onto white cardstock. I trimmed it down to a thick strip and adhered it to a frame of gold glitter cardstock. Then I die-cut the Celestial Fancy dies from glitter cardstock and white cardstock (for the moon). I colored the moon with copic markers and then adhered the images to the celestial background with foam mounting tape. I stamped a sentiment from You’re Magical onto a white card base and then added the celestial strip above for a simple but striking design!
And that’s it for me! Head over and pick up your December My Monthly Hero kit and add-ons today before it sells out!

Adorable cards. Looking forward to getting my hands on this kit. Love all your cards, but that third one knocks it out of the park.
Wonderful pastel watercoloring, brights & more.
