Welcome!
I am thrilled to be part of the 2011 Hero Arts Catalog Blog Hop… Yay! You should have arrived from the blog of Kristina Werner. I am sure you have been enjoying all the inspiration along the hop 
Well, all the new stamps are fantastic! And guess what? Hero Arts will be giving away FIVE PRIZE PACKS that include brand new 2012 Catalog stamps. The five winners will be randomly chosen from all of the blog hop comments received by midnight PST on Monday, December 12th, and will be announced on the Hero Arts Blog shortly thereafter… Awesome! Don’t you think?
I created some cards for this special occasion, of course using some of the new stamps along with other HA products 
My first card features a woodblock stamp called Vintage Car (G5544) and a sentiment from a clear set called This is Big (CL570)… These stamps are perfect to create a masculine card…
My second card features a stamp from a set called Truly Grateful (CL569)… I love the romantic style of this set…
My third and last card is showing a set called Special Time (CL579)… The images and sentiments included in this set are great, and I combined them with patterned papers…
Now it’s time to hop over Nichol Magouirk’s blog. Remember, if you find a link that doesn’t work, you can always hop back to the Hero Arts blog for a list of direct links to all the blogs in the hop
YOU CAN FIND THE COMMENTS LINK AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS POST or HERE!

Wow, wow & more wow! Each card was special. The first one reminded me of the promo video with the little owl driving around, awhile back – and now the stamps are nearly here. The ‘Truly Grateful’ set looks wonderful and loved the colours you used in that card, Mariana. Enjoyed the butterflies – time flitting by – very much. Went back to the first one and noticed the pearls (or bling ?) on the wheels. Brought the three different cards together so well! It has been a delight to visit…..

What beautiful cards! I love that two of them can be used for that special man in your life. We never have enough “man card” ideas. Thanks so much for that!
