July My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #5 + Giveaway
It's time for our next countdown peek! The July My Monthly Hero kit will be available on Monday, July 1 at 1pm Eastern/10am Pacific. Now let’s join Emily, who is sharing another look at this wonderful kit!
Hi there! Emily Midgett here with you for another sneak peek of this month's fantastic My Monthly Hero kit! This month's theme is all things outside... swimming, fishing, camping, mountains, forests... In addition to the fun images of fishing and swimming, some beautifully serene images are included in this month's kit. I chose to focus on the tranquil dock setting and a silhouette of trees against a sunset for my project today. Let's get started on the details!
I began by stamping the dock image on some white cardstock using Soft Brown and Wet Cement inks, going back a bit later and intensifying the details on the dock with a pencil. I die cut the dock image with the coordinating dock die. I also trimmed an A2 panel of white card stock, then cut a circle from the center using the Circle Infinity Dies. I used this and the dock die cut as a guide to determine placement of my tree silhouettes, which I stamped in Intense Black. I then masked off the bottom using Post-It notes and blended Orchid, Ultra Pink, Soft Apricot, and Butter Bar inks to create a blazing sunset behind the trees.
Next, I covered the sunset that I'd just blended with the Post-Its and blended Pool beneath to create the lake, stamping the ripples using the same ink. I also stamped some cattails using more black ink on the bottom of the circle, as well as some cattails and grass using Moss ink. I also stamped the birthday greeting (included in the July kit!) in black towards the bottom of the white A2 panel.
I layered the white circle die cut panel over the sunset panel using foam adhesive, finally adding the dock and greenery. Such a peaceful scene!
Well, that's all for my project today. I hope you're enjoying the sneak peeks... this is a kit that you won't want to miss out on!! Now for some fun giveaway information!

What a clever card. Such interesting uses of the stamps, the dies and masking to create the effects. And I love the ripples in the water as opposed to solid water lines ll the way across the water. Very inspiring.

This set has sooo much potential. I would love it for scrapbooking family vacations to the lake and national parks. However they were sold out before I saw any part of it. Please consider making it available to be ordered individually. I would so love to have this. And can imagine many many uses. In the meantime I will stalk eBay and Amazon in hopes that I find something remotely similar
