Hero Arts: October My Monthly Hero Blog Hop, Giveaway + VIdeo

 Hi everyone!

Happy Monday and Welcome to the October My Monthly Hero blog hop! In this month's kit we are featuring Christmas, and in particular the theme is Nordic/Scandinavian Christmas.

I so love this kit! And you can get all kinds of different looks on your cards and projects. (On the bottom I have the card/ornament I had up on Friday for the Countdown). 

If you are following the hop you have probably arrived from Emily Midgett's blog and your next stop is Jessica Frost-Ballas.


Now lets go into the cards (Video below)

I have couple cards featuring the small images, and I used them in a way to create filled in shapes. For the first one I drew a circle with pencil and stamped the images within the circles. I filled the space with little dots using markers. For the second one I did a triangle to represent a tree and did the same thing with adding dots with markers.

Once the ink was completely dry I erased the pencil lines. Stamped sentiment and embossed in white. Then assembled my cards.

I love how you used the small shapes to fill your larger shapes to create the ornament and the tree! That's such a clever idea - I need to pin you cards for future inspiration!

I'm a sucker for blue at the holidays, so that's my default fave, but I'm so enamored w/ your using the small shapes as fill-in for the traditional Christmas shapes. Very creative!

The color choices for the non-traditional card are super pretty. I love the idea of filling in the extra white space with the small dots; it is a very great touch to make a super clean but colorful card.

Your blue and white ornament is my favorite mostly because I am in love with the deer and ornament dies!! Great inspiration though with your other two cards and adding all the dots and your choice of colors really made them POP.

Love that deer! We always decorate in blue and I pull towards cards with that color combination. The little image ornament is a great reminder for me.
