Hello, and welcome to a new week on the Hero Arts blog. It’s Lucy here, and I have a week of very different cards to share with you this week. Plus, later in the week I will be announcing the February contest details… so stay tuned!

For today, I have created a fun and simple Valentine card using the new Sweet Hearts stamps. Aren’t they just too cute! And I just LOVE the new Newspaper Background stamp - I am pretty sure this will go with any card! Such a versatile stamp - definitely a new favorite.

Card by Lucy Abrams.  Find complete supplies and instructions here.

I stamped the hearts on some Blush Designer Paper then had fun masking and mixing up the sentiments and inking the edges with Distress Ink.

On Friday’s post we asked you all to confess how much ribbon you own for a chance to win more from May Arts.  The responses had us smiling all weekend long!  No matter how much you have, there was one common consensus - it’s impossible to ever have too much ribbon, and there’s always room for more!

And the randomly chosen winner is comment #39, Karen Lee, who said:  “I have 82 rolls of ribbon plus a lot of scraps and coils of it in two jars. YIKES!”

Congratulations Karen, send us an email at winner@heroarts.com and we’ll get you hooked up with the ribbon!

I’ll be back tomorrow with a card featuring our new stamp of the week. See you then,
