Happy October, friends! As we celebrate the 6th anniversary of My Monthly Hero, we are excited to also kick off the countdown to the release of our October kit!

As you can already see, this kit is brimming with lots of classic Christmas images that you'll be able to combine in countless ways to create nostalgic scenes. Eager to see more? Our team will be back tomorrow with another round of fabulous ideas!

WIN A KIT BEFORE YOU CAN BUY IT: Just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post. 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, October 4, before the kit launches at 10am Pacific. The more you comment, the more chances to win. Good luck!

Before we go, we also want to invite you to a special World Cardmaking Day LIVE crafting session with Libby tomorrow! Join us on Saturday at noon Pacific/3pm Eastern here on our Facebook page to celebrate one of the best days of the year. You can craft along, just watch, chat, and enter to win some fantastic prizes (entire October add-ons release, anyone?!) You can always catch it on replay and still be eligible to win prizes if you're not able to join while we're live. We hope to see you there. Happy World Cardmaking Day in advance!
