I shared this card using the My Monthly Hero kit on my blog this weekend:
And today, I’m sharing a daytime scene with a little more coloring using the July 2021 My Monthly Hero kit!
I love that snoozing gnome! I started by stamping him onto a panel of strathmore bristol smooth cardstock with contour ink using my MISTI. Then I carefully fussy cut and placed a mask over the stamped image. I blended Splash, Fog, and Green Apple reactive inks over the panel and then removed the masks. I colored the image with copic markers and then placed it back inside my MISTI and stamped it with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder for nice crisp black lines.
Next I die-cut the Forest Vines window die and colored it with copic markers. Then I used a infinity circle die from Hero Arts to cut a window from a panel of Sand cardstock. I stamped a sentiment from the kit onto the sand cardstock panel with versafine and heat-embossed it with clear embossing powder. Then I adhered the Forest Vines window die behind the sand cardstock and adhered those panels over my blended panel to finish the card! I love all the layers and dimension in this cheery scene!
Finally, I have one more card to share today using some of the add-on sets.
I love all the mushrooms in this month’s add-ons (even though I won’t eat a mushroom in real life, ha) and I started by die-cutting the Mushroom Forest fancy die from a panel of Pitch Black cardstock (which, coincidentally, is FINALLY back in stock at Hero Arts and is THE BEST black cardstock around!) Then I blended Soft Purple, Grape Juice, and Intense-ified Black ink onto a panel of Lavender cardstock to create my background. I spritzed the blended panel with shimmer spray and set it aside to dry.
Next I die-cut the Mushrooms and Ferns fancy dies from Pitch black cardstock and pressed my embossing pad all over them before heat-embossing them with black sparkle embossing powder. Then I tucked the embossed pieces around my frame die and adhered them in place. I created a shaker and filled it with the stardust sequins included in the kit. Finally I added a sentiment from Magical Forest to finish the card!
And that’s it for me! I LOVE this magical release! Head over and pick up your July My Monthly Hero kit and add-ons today before it sells out!

I am a big fan of gnomes so these cute little cards are a must to get.
Loved your silhouette cards. Great colors on your skies!
These are so gorgeous!! Amazing colors you picked!
Really sweet magical cards!
The cards are like a fairy book!
I love your silhouette images they are such a different take on these sets.
Wow! These are outstanding. Love the napping gnome and all the sparkles and silhouettes!
These are fun cards; I like them all.
WOW! These are all wonderful and I am loving them all done in silhouette. So cute!!
I ADORE your little scenes and the silhouettes!
Wonderful scenes, I liked peeking through the vines to catch the gnome sleeping in his little hammock. Thanks for sharing your cards.
So beautiful and such wonderful details. Can’t wait to get this set!
Beautiful cards. Love the details on your “add on” card.
Love the window scenes – especially the little gnome in his hammock 😊
Cute card. Love the gnome snoozing in the hammock.
You are so talented Jessica! The black card is “magical”…🤩
Each of the cards is totally different from each other
I love the the black mushroom border, w/ the purple ink blending in the bg. So pretty! i love how dramatic it is.
Oh my gosh, the silhouettes are wonderful. I never would have thought of that, but it’s perfect. The fairies glow at night.
Your use of black really makes the colors pop. I had not thought of using silhouettes with this set and you gave me lots of inspiration.
Pretty magical scenes. Like the hammock.
