I shared this card using the My Monthly Hero Premium kit on my blog this weekend:

And today I’m sharing a card using the Classic kit!!

I love this tropical window die and wanted to create a sunset silhouette scene with the beautiful layering stamp set!  I stamped the layering waves in shades of teal and aqua and yellow for the setting sun.  I die-cut the clouds from white glitter cardstock and the sun from yellow cardstock.  I added a little extra blending on the yellow for dimension.  Then I stamped the sentiment on black cardstock and heat-embossed it with white embossing powder.  I die-cut the tropical window fancy die from black cardstock and layered it over my scene before adding the sentiment at the bottom.

And finally I’m sharing one more card using one of the new add-on bundles:

In keeping with my teal theme I inked the Aqua Textures Bold Print stamp with a variety of teal inks and then stamped it onto white cardstock.  I used my MISTI so I could reink and restamp for full coverage.  Then I die-cut the Sea Creatures Fancy dies and colored them with copic markers.  When I was done I inked the tentacles with embossing ink and covered them with sparkle embossing powder.  I love the shimmer!  I added a sentiment from Sea Quotes and finished the card with a handful of sparkling clear sequins!

And that’s it for me! Head over and pick up your June My Monthly Hero Classic or Premium kit and add-ons today before they sell out!

    I’m a sucker for a sunset so this set is right up my alley – so nice. The Aqua Textures Bold Print stamp in teals is lovely and the sparkly octopi are so cute.
