Show & Tell Celebration - Share to Win!

Let's have some fun!

You are a huge part of our 45-year journey, whether you've been stamping for decades or maybe even just months or weeks. We want to celebrate YOUR stamping history along with ours, so today we are launching the Show & Tell Photo Sharing Celebration! For the next 45 days (April 24 - June 7), we invite you to share your first Hero Arts stamps and memories. Do you remember your first Hero Arts stamp? Do you still have it? Do you still use it? Show and tell! :)

There are two ways to enter:

1. Instagram - If you are already on Instagram, this is the suggested entry method. Simply upload a photo of your first Hero Arts stamp(s) and/or memories, and include the hashtag #herocelebrates45. *** Be sure to use this hashtag so that we can find your entry and others participating in the challenge can too! ***

2. Link Party - If you are not on Instagram, you can share a direct link to your photos/memories in the InLinkz Link Party below this blog post. Look for the blue button!

No matter which way you enter, you will be eligible to win fabulous prizes!

Grand Prize - A one-year My Monthly Hero subscription (12 limited edition kits!)
Additional Prizes - 3 Hero Arts gift cards

All winners will be randomly selected at the conclusion of the event. Remember, you have until June 7 to share. We can't wait to see your photos and hear your stories!

Thank you so much for being a part of our creative journey,

There’s no way I can remember my first HA stamp, but most likely I still have it. I’ve been stamping 25+ years & HA was one of the main companies my local stamp store carried. I’d share a picture of all my HA stamps, but there’s no way I could get them all in 1 shot! My on-line stamping world began with the HA Flickr group. I’d been entering the monthly contests where we mailed a card to you. I never won, but you sent everyone who entered a wood mounted stamp. I’ve never forgotten that generosity. Happy 45th anniversary!

Very fun. I have some oldies, but goodies I’ll have to dig up to share…still won’t part with them. I just love them! Happy 45th!!!

Some of my favorite Hero Art stamps are my older background stamps that I still use today.
I started with scrapbooking, but quickly changed to card making. I make a card almost every day!

Hi Stephanie! In order to post to the Link Party, you’ll need to sign up for a free InLinkz account if you don’t have one already. Then you paste the link to wherever your photo has been uploaded – that could be a blog, an online photo album, or probably even the link from Facebook. Hope this helps!

I don’t know about others, but I am having troubles posting a photo through Inlinks. I’ll post one in the Hero Arts fan group on Facebook though for fun.

My first Hero Arts stamp I ever owned is from 1991, named Peeking Valentine Bear. The wood block may have a few dings and stains, but the rubber is still in excellent condition and I used it this February!
