Hero Arts Global Team blog hop

The Hero Arts Global Team is hopping today to celebrate the launch of the new Hero Arts Spring Catalogue!

 

We'll be giving away a $50 gift card. drawn from the comments left along the hop. Comment on all the blogs for more chances to win! You have until Sunday, February 26 at 11:59pm to enter. The winners will be announced on the Hero Arts blog. Scroll down for the list of blogs on the hop!

For this card, I started with a panel of yupo, and I added a rainbow of Alcohol Pearls. I then placed the Leaf and Floral Stencil over the top, and used a foam ink blending tool to remove some of the rainbow with Alcohol Lift Ink. I used the centre part of the Secret Garden Fancy Die for my focal image (and kept it white to contrast with the bright rainbow) and finished with a sentiment from Wonderful Day.

For this card, I used the border part of the Secret Garden Fancy Die over a soft  background ink-blended with teals and pinks. I added a sentiment and some butterflies and a hummingbird from the Wisteria Heroscape set.

 Here's the list of stops on the hop:
