August My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #2 + Giveaway
Welcome back to the Countdown to Creativity! The August My Monthly Hero Kit release day is Monday, August 3, at 1pm Eastern/10 am Pacific. Now let's join Janette for another wonderful peek at this month's "Staycation" themed kit!
Hello friends! I am absolutely loving the versatility and colorability of this month's kit. Go big with scene building, or crisp and clean with a focal element. I've paired simple ink blending for a beachy vibe with a bit of scene building to create something similar to my own little paradise.
Recreate this dreamy escape by ink blending Indigo, Aegean and Soft Brown inks on 3 1/4" x 4 1/2" Dove White cardstock. Blend blue to teal and fade to white. Bring the brown up from the bottom, also fading softly to white.
Stamp chosen kit images in Intens-ified Black ink and Copic color. Die cut all images. Adhere images flat to blended panel, tucking and overlapping to build scene.
White Detail heat emboss large sentiment onto blended panel and small sentiment onto Pitch Black cardstock. Adhere completed panel with foam tape to folded card base.

xo,
This card is fantastic – wishing I was there. :)
Day one sneak peek was perfect for me & where we live & what I love to do in the summertime, right down to the big sun hat. Well, guess what? Day two is perfect for me also! I’m so excited about this August kit & I so like the card you’ve made with it. Books are an important aspect of my life, always have been since I’ve been small. That sentiment sums up what I think of our backyard, just like Day one did also!
Use to have a swing like that it was awesome.
Love Hero Stamps! Got it from a store a while back when I didn’t know who you where.
They are wonderful stamps!
Such a relaxing card, I’m dreaming of a summer retreat just like the one you created. Looking forward to seeing more of this kit.
Wow – this looks like a nice change in themes and offerings for the MMH kits! I am really excited about that! Lovely card, Janette!
