Hero Arts: January My Monthly Hero Countdown to Creativity

 Hi everyone!

Happy Sunday! Today we are continuing with the January My Monthly Hero Sneak peeks! And I am just loving this month's kit! It's no secret that I love all of them.

I love all the images in this kit. The flower branch is large and amazing for coloring, as are the bees.I love the chubby bees!!! 

The kit goes live on Monday, January 4th at 10am PST/1pm EST.

I thought the large images are perfect for creating slimline card, so that's what I did. I stamped the images on Dove White cardstock using Intens-ified black ink and colored with copic markers. Once colored I die cut them. I also die cut the honeycomb die that comes in the kit from Black sparkle paper (also in the kit). 

Set aside all the die cuts. Stamp sentiment onto Pitch black cardstock and emboss in white. Trim to size.

Cut panel from Dove White cardstock measuring 3 1/4" x 8 1/4" and ink blend Pool Party and Lemon Drop reactive inks.  Assemble the panel and adhere to slimline note card.

lliana, your slimline card itts so versatile because it can be used for many occasions and those bees are so cute. I didn’t think that so many elements could fit in a slimline card, but you accommodate them in a very nice way. Love the cream base card that ties everything together. Tsf

The floral piece is perfect for slimline and the bees are small enough to slip in around the flowers and still be a focal point.
