Now it's your turn – how will you interpret the challenge theme? Use the InLinkz tool right at the bottom of this post to link up your newly created card, and you will be entered into our draw. We will be giving a $50 gift card randomly to one person who plays along, and another $50 gift card to one of our favourites!
To link up your new project that fits the challenge theme, you need to share it publicly somewhere you can grab the link – this can be your blog, Instagram, a Flickr account – anywhere that allows you to have a URL or website location to link up, and where we can see your post.
We would love for you to use your favorite Hero Arts products, but all projects that fit the theme can be entered and will be included in the draw – finding joy in crafting is what's important! Entries must be submitted by September 4th at 5:00pm PT to be eligible for the giveaway. Scroll down to find the linkup! If you share your project on social media, we'd like you to use the #heroarts and #staycraftychallenge hashtags, please!
We love leaving comments on your entries, but sometimes that is not possible. Please be assured that we have visited each of your posts, whether it be a blog, Instagram, Flickr or somewhere else, but some platforms may limit comments or only allow comments from members.
Enter our contest by linking your new project below! Please enter your name in the caption area. By linking your project, you are giving us permission to feature your card on our blog, social media or newsletter, crediting you as the artist.
In July, our challenge theme was "Another Year Older", and yet again, your entries provided such amazing inspiration!
Our random winner of a $50 Hero Arts voucher is Wendy Beach! She used the Giving Sunflower Digital Download (100% of our revenue from this download is donated to the Ukrainian Red Cross).
Our Design Team favourite winner of a $50 Hero Arts voucher is Melanie Barrett! She used the Abstract Expressionist Bold Prints for this colourful card!
Please email us at info@heroarts.com with "Stay Crafty Challenge Winner" in the subject to claim your prize.

Hero Arts is very generous to allow entries that don’t use their products. I plan to enter another card using Hero Arts projects. Beautiful projects by the DT!

I was thrilled to see that my card was selected as the design team’s favorite for the month of July! I will definitely enjoying adding more Hero Arts supplies to my stash! Thank you!
