Hero Arts Stamp Your Story Blog Hop



Hi there! Welcome to my stop on the Hero Arts Stamp Your Story Blog Hop! Today we are showcasing some of the fabulous products from the Stamp Your Story line, which can be found HERE in the Hero Arts Online Store.

My card features both the Journal Letters and Sketchbook Letters clear stamp sets along with the Happy Thoughts and Little Moments woodblock sets.


The label frame looks like it is one stamp, but I actually combined the bracket and striped frame images from Happy Thoughts to create it. The stamps were super easy to line up with the help of a stamp-a-ma-jig. And I used my favorite new Mint Julep ink, which i'm a little addicted to right now. ;) Don't you just love it when you discover a new use for a stamp?!? It makes me just a tad giddy!


The letters were stamped with Neon Orange ink and the heart with Neon Pink ink. To finish off the card I covered the letters with Glossy Accents and the heart with Crystal Stickles to add lots of shine and texture!

Be sure to leave a comment on this post for your chance to win a giveaway from Hero Arts! They will randomly select a winner from all comments left along the hop.
