Hero Arts Season of Wonder blog hop and giveaway!

Hi everyone! 

Happy Wednesday! I know I keep falling off the face of the earth. Rest assured, I am still here and kicking. Crafting and running are keeping me sane from the insanity of daily life: work and kids! 

Anyway, today the Season of Wonder Hero Arts winter release is live and available for purchase. So we are celebrating it with a hop. And I have few cards for you today.

I have few cards featuring different products for you today.

For my first card I am featuring the Sending Warm Hogs stamp set and dies. I stamped my image, colored with copics and die cut. The sentiment was stamped on black layering paper, embossed and die cut using the rounded rectangle infinity dies. For my background I did some ink blending using Cotton Candy ink and then stamped bunch of snowflakes and embossed with white puff embossing powder. 

Next, I have a card featuring the new Woodgrain cover die. Love at first site. I die cut my panel and splattered with some diluted gold metallic ink. I stamped the sentiment  from Winter Holiday Messaged and embossed in gold. Die cut using the new Fancy Ornament Infinity dies and assembled the card.

Next, I have the color layering pomegranates set. I didn't use the layering pieces, but instead only the outline stamps and colored my images using Copic markers. Die cut them and assembled my card. 

Then I have a card featuring the AH-MAZING Sunflower stem single wood mount stamp. I stamped and colored with copic, fussy cut it, created my background and assembled the card.

Last but not the least, I have the amazing color layering owl. I decided to do an ink blended background for this card and used: Rose Madder, Orchid and Grape Juice inks to create the background, along with Soft Vanilla and Soft Yellow for the moon.
