    It is a Hero Arts Tuesday.  I tried to get a card done for this sooner, but alas it didn’t happen.  I loved the color combo challenge and made these two cards based on it. I adore fall.  The changing of leaves, the cooler weather.  I think I love it…

  • {9.8.2011} craziness

    Sometimes… I just shouldn’t try to make a card.  Ha.  I was having one of those days.  Nothing was looking right, turning out right and every stamp set just seemed wrong.  ARGH.  I just wanted to scream and throw a tantrum.  Luckily, I’m 33 and didn’t throw myself on the…

    Hi there… I’m excited to share another ‘sunny’ Hero Arts card today.  I’m using the ‘everyday sayings’ stamp set with ‘the line‘ digital kit. Ahhhh, a pure and simple card. Something about the simpleness just makes me happy. And I hope it brings happiness to you today as well. I…

  • {7.13.2011} hello old friend

    Hero Arts, I’ve missed you… I have a hard time finding a good assortment of Hero Arts stamps in my area.  I long for the new releases and the more current sets, but alas, they are not so readily available. So when I saw 2peas carries digital HA and HA…

  • it’s a hOWLiday card

    The challenge this week at the Hero Arts blog is to use glitter.  Ok, I’ll admit it… I don’t use glitter.  It is just way to messy for me.  I get it all over me, my desk and sometimes my dogs.  They don’t like it either. But, I do love…

  • dare to tear

    This weeks challenge at the Hero Arts Blog is paper tearing.  I must admit, I don’t paper tear very often.  I don’t do much distressing, so I often forget about tearing.  But it is a great way to add texture to a card.  Hope everyone had a great weekend!!! Thanks…
