HeroArts 2014 Catalog Blog Hop with Hero Hostess




Welcome to Day 5 of the Hero Arts' 2014 Catalog Blog Hop 
with the Hero Hostesses!
I'm so excited to be a part with my alumnae Hostess sisters
and sharing my projects using stamps from the new 2014 catalog.

You should have arrived here from my sweet hosti sister Linda Wetterlin's blog .
If you didn't hop over to the Hero Arts Blog to start from the beginning.
Hero Arts will be awarding three prizes from randomly drawn comments.
For a chance to win, simply comment on ANY of the stops 
along the way on ANY day,
including each day's starting post at the Hero Arts Club Blog.
The more comments you leave, the better your chance of winning!

Okay, let's get started with my creations!
 My first card uses  Many Blessings (H5894) and  Butterfly (CL750)
I white embossed the sentiment on vellum and stitch to the card
also embossed the butterfly on vellum with glitter pink embossing powder


 My second card uses this cute OWH Lil Hoot (CL755),
Five Line Background Stamp and Time (AC029)




And for last, I made bag keychains from the same stamp set Lil Hoot 
I colored the images with copics marker, glued to 3mm creative foam 
 and covered with sticker laminate.
 S
o easy and fun, right ? I Hope you like it :)



Now hop on over to the blog of my fabulous Hostess sister Sue McRae

Thanks so much for hopping with us this week


Hugs, 
Vera
