A Blog Named Hero, August Edition!

Good morning! Today is the beginning of a new challenge for A Blog Named Hero. Our theme is embossing, and this month (appropriately) we are collaborating with Wow! For my project, I wanted the embossing to shine, so I chose the beautiful Spice Market background stamp.

I started with a panel of turquoise A2 card stock, then heat embossed the gorgeous Spice Market stamp using Wow’s Calypso Embossing Powder. Look at how beautifully that detail came out!!! So sparkly.

Next, I die cut the Stamp ‘n Cut Hello three times from black card stock and glued them all together to create a dimensional embellishment. I covered them in Spectrum Noir shimmer pens, then added some Glossy Accents to the top. I heat embossed the sentiment onto a black strip of card stock using white embossing powder. Finally, I die cut some hearts from the black card stock and added them in a downward cascade, covering them in Glossy Accents.

Easy peasy! The gorgeous Spice Market background from Hero Arts really shines through on such a simple card, though.

Now, it’s your turn! Create a card using at least one Hero Arts product and following the Embossing theme, then post your card on our link up. Have fun, and good luck!
