Hero Arts Stamp Your Story Blog Hop




Hi and welcome to my stop on the Hero Arts Stamp Your Story Blog Hop! I'm so excited to share a couple cards with you today using some amazing new stamps!

These stamps are ideal for creating journals, scrapbooking and project life, but I wanted to show you how they can also work great for cards.

This first card uses the zig zag image from the Notebook Essentials stamp set to create the chevron design with a variety of red and pink inks. And that adorable little sentiment is from the My Words stamp set.



My next card features the awesome alphabet stamp set, Sketchbook Letters. I stamped the letters inside the Painted Circle and then die cut the circle. I also used the Brushed Frame, Stamp and Build and Notebook Essentials on the card.




Here are a few important details to note about the release of these new products:

      • The Stamp Your Story digital catalog can be viewed here.
      • Stamp Your Story products are currently shipping to retail stores around the world.
      • All Stamp Your Story products will be coming to the Hero Arts Online Store on May 15th.
      • Enter the new Stamp Your Story contest here.

Be sure to leave a comment on this post for your chance to win a prize package from Hero Arts! A winner will be drawn from all comments received on the blog hop.

Your next stop on the hop is my super sweet and talented sister, Tami!

And just in case you come across a broken link, you can find a complete list of blog hoppers on the Hero Arts Blog.
