November 2024 Hero Studio Countdown to Creativity | Hero Arts

Hello Crafty friends! I am super excited to join Hero Arts today for the Countdown to the November 2024 Hero Studio (and EXTRAS)! We are celebrating this weekend with a two day countdown sharing beautiful inspiration all weekend using the Hero Studio Card Kit of the Month, as well as Monthly Minis.

For today’s project I am using the November Card kit to create a fun holiday tag! I started with the circle shape tag. On the tag background I created an ink blended background using Core Inks. I used: Paradise, Caramel, and Espresso. Once the ink blend was complete, I used a stencil from the kit to apply Hero Berry Wax using a Hero Palette knife. I set the background aside to completely dry. Once the background was dry I added splatters using various dye inks, as well as white acrylic spray.

Next I stamped the adorable owl onto watercolor paper. I stamped the image using Onyx Pigment Ink, then heat set using clear embossing powder. I colored the image using my zig markers. When using my zig markers, I work from lightest to darkest. Once the owl was completely colored, I die cut the owl using a die in the set.

Next I created the gift for the owl to pop out of on my tag. I die cut the gift using Dove White card stock. I then used the same Core Inks as above to create a blended background. I die cut the ribbon from the set using the Glitter Holiday sparkle paper pack. I then heat embossed the ribbon using white embossing powder, as well as added Hero Wax in gold for added shine and texture. On the gift, I stamped and embossed the snowflakes using a stamp from the kit. I heat embossed these using white embossing powder.

I completed the tag by adhering the layers together using a combination of foam tape, as well as Precision Glue. I darkened the edges using Core Inks in: Espresso and Pitch Black. I stamped and die cut the sentiment from the kit onto Dove White card stock. I also added a bit of twine for a bow and added texture behind the owl.

Thank you so much for stopping by today! I will be back on Monday with more inspiration using this month’s kit, as well as the extras! Be sure to check out the Hero Arts Instagram page this weekend for all the AMAZING inspiration on the 2 day Countdown! I also wanted to share that Heroarts.com will be back up on Monday November 4!!!!
