Are you ready to create cards bursting with light, positivity and encouragement? Sending these out in the new year would be such a wonderful way to connect with loved ones.

We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from comments left across all countdown posts on the Hero Arts blog. The winner will be announced first thing Monday morning, December 7, before the kit launches at 10am Pacific. The more you comment, the more chances to win. Good luck!

See you tomorrow for the reveal,

Love this kit. Hope has special meaning for our family. In December of 2015, Hope was on our mind as my daughter waited for a kidney. I am happy to say, it was realized and she has now been healthy for four plus years. Never stop hoping.

These cards are absolutely fantastic! Kudos to the design team who’ve come up with an MMH kit that is so suited to end 2020 with. We have to remember that above the clouds the sun still shines, even when it’s grey down here, as it so often is in the fall/winter on the west coast of BC. Where would we be without hope? This is a perfect reminder to us & all who receive cards made from these spectacular stamps & dies. Thank you Hero Arts.
