May My Monthly Hero Kit Arrived

My kit came on Saturday but since we had 2 Grandson's Baseball games and Sunday was Mothers Day - I had to wait until today to play!  Boy did I have fun!  This month's kit is awesome and I really love the bigger dies they have been including!  
For this card, I used the tissue paper that the kit was wrapped in.  First I spread Mod Podge on Neenah Classic Crest 110lb card stock and crinkled up the tissue paper and smoothed in the glue.  Let it dry and trim up the edges.  For the clouds I ran Puffy Cloud Border Die (Lawn Fawn) through my Big Shot (Sizzix) and brushed Glitter Brush (Spectrum Noir) for some sparkle.  Then I stamped in Tuxedo Black Ink (Memento) images from the kit.  I did have to go in with a black pen to color over the texture.  The sentiment is also stamped in Tuxedo Black and die cut with Stitched Rectangle Dies (The Stamps of Life).
 I bought the add on Family Word Bold Print Stamp and a used the same Neenah paper.  Stamped with VersaMark Ink and sprinkled Clear Embossing Powder (Ranger) and heat set.  Blended Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide and Wilted Violet Distress Oxide Ink over the embossed area.  Then I used a sentiment from the March My Monthly Hero Kit and Bold Alphabet Dies on Glitter paper.  Tied it with a pink ribbon and mounted it on my black card base.
For this last one, I used that beautiful big die.  For fun, I stamped and embossed a dog and cat - thought it went well with the sentiment.  I also used some distress inks to blend the background.

Hope you have fun playing with your kit from Hero Arts!  Have a great day and keep crafting!
