Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero: May 2024 Challenge

Welcome to a new Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero Challenge! For May, our theme is Tea for Two. You could interpret this in a few different ways – make a card with two of a particular element on it, make two cards as a pair, make a tea-themed card, use two colours or two colouring media, or make a card with the number 2 on it!

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.

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 (no backlinks, please), 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 copy the link – this can be your blog, Instagram, a Flickr account, your Splitcoast gallery – anywhere that allows you to have a URL or website location to link up, and where we can see your post.

All products are welcome, but if you want to be in with a chance to win, please use at least one Hero Arts designed product (stamp – physical or digital, stencil, die, rub-on or hot foil plate).

Entries must be submitted by June 2nd 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! Due to recent changes on Instagram, please also tag @ablognamedhero so we will definitely see your post!

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. The best way to allow us to comment is to link up to your Instagram post, and tag @ablognamedhero. 

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 April, our challenge theme was "Happy Anniversary", and you filled our gallery with some fabulous birthday and anniversary cards!
