Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero: February 2024 Challenge
Welcome to a new Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero Challenge! For February, we asking "Do You Believe in Love?"

Anything that conveys a feeling of love - so a birthday card with a love message, or a wedding or engagement card, or a card with a heart on it - anything that shows the recipient how much you care!
Here's some beautiful inspiration from our design team. You can follow the links below each card to discover even more ideas from these talented artists.

In January, our challenge theme was "Everything Old is New Again", and it was great to see so many Hero Arts stamps from the vault!
Our random winner of a $50 Hero Arts voucher is Helen F with this beautiful card. The butterflies are from the Antique Engravings set from many years ago.
Our Design Team favourite winner of a $50 Hero Arts voucher is Greta H! She used the Large Blossom stamp from 2011 on this gorgeous card with a super clean design.
