2018 Summer Catalog Sneak Peeks: Day 2
It's time for another round of 2018 Summer Catalog sneak peeks and we're shifting gears from yesterday's flowers to something completely different, that's a whole lot of fun! Saddle up and say howdy to a few of our new Western themed products...
Creative Team member Emily Midgett's first card features two new stamps. The first is a 4" x 6" clear set called Cowboy Life (CM269) that's loaded with images you'll be able to color, and clever sentiments that will make you want to kick up your heels and stamp! A coordinating set of Cowboy Life Frame Cut dies will be available. A cowboy-themed card deserves a bandana background and we have a new stamp for that too -- the 6" x 6" Bandana Bold Prints (CG739) cling background!
For our final sneak peek, we're heading to the desert...
Emily created this gorgeous scene with one of our new dies, the Desert Sunset Fancy Die (DI501). This die allows you to create a striking silhouette-style frame on a card front. The sky's the limit on the ways you can color the background -- imagine ink blending, watercolor, markers, and more. The "Let's Get Lost" message comes from a new 4" x 6" clear set called Cowboy Adventure (CM268).
GIVEAWAY: Leave a comment on this post and we will randomly select a winner from the comments to receive a $20 gift certificate to the Hero Arts Online Store! Please comment by Sunday, April 22 at 11:59pm PT, and we’ll announce the winner the following week.
