Welcome to …
Today I am joining this fun Blog Hop showcasing the new 2013 Hero Arts Catalog
If you are coming from Kelly Goree’s blog, I am sure that by now you are full of inspiration after visiting so many blogs of talented designers, right? …And if not, please hope over the Hero Arts blog to start the fun
As always, Hero Arts will be giving away several prize packs, with winners randomly chosen from ALL of the blog hop comments received by midnight PST on Monday, December 17
Please notice that my comment link is located at the beginning of this post, right below the title↑↑↑
So here is my first design for the hop:

I couldn’t resist stamping those darling owls…They are, along with the heart and sentiment from a clear set called: Howl Are You (CL675). The branch is from Love Jar (CL673) and the background was created with a fabulous woodblock stamp called (S5637)
And here is my second design…

This card features two woodblock stamps: Scalloped Flower and Thinking of You sentiment. I created a colorful background by stamping several times the flower using different color of inks… I just wanted to make my card look happy
Anyway, I hope you liked what I have created for this special occasion, now is time for you to hop over the…
Hero Arts Catalog Blog Hop Finale
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.
Thank you for visiting
Have a wonderful weekend!

The little pair of love owls on the branch are adorable! The eyes really add a lot, as do her flirty eyelashes. The bright flowers are screaming “spring is on its way!” even though we haven’t even reached the official start of winter yet. Both cards are fun and wonderful.

great card… i saw the dot background stamp in person, but didn’t like it – it looks way better used than plain in person… thanks for sharing

Totally cute cards. The jewels on the branch, the sleepy eyes on the owl, the pattern on the heart. Great look! I’m loving that dot background stamp. And that flower card is just so happy. Who wouldn’t want to receive that? Thanks so much for brightening my day!
