Summer 2023 Catalog Release Blog Hop + Giveaway!
Hello and welcome! We are thrilled to share our fabulous new Summer 2023 Catalog with you today! It's launching in our online store, and at participating retailers. The release is packed full of new stamps, dies, stencils, hot foil plates, rub-ons and more! At the bottom of this post you're invited to join our blog hop, where our Creative Team and several talented friends are sharing creations made with this release. But first, let's talk a bit about what's new!
For a quick and easy look at the new products, we recommend you spend a few minutes with our overview video. Set to music, it walks you through the new goodies with product images and beautiful card samples from our team.
One new product category is so much fun, it deserves special attention! As you saw in our final sneak peek on Friday, we have a new color medium joining the Hero Arts Creative Essentials – Two-Tone Metallic Sprays! With a luminous blend of metallic pigment and dye watercolor powders, these sprays are ideal for creating backgrounds, spritzing through stencils, and watercoloring. There are so many creative technique possibilities with these! Simply fill the bottle with water and shake well to activate the powder formula, then spray to your heart's content.
The sprays will be available in five colors:
• Fuchsia + Gold
• Bright Yellow + Copper
• Spring Green + Gold
• Ocean Blue + Gold
• Royal Purple + Gold
Take a look at the gorgeous metallic shimmer! We are positively swooning!
Dana from our Creative Team filmed the following video to introduce you to these awesome new sprays. She covers a bunch of different ways to use them - take a look!
Attention ink cube lovers! With this release, we continue to introduce our Core Ink line into the handy ink cube format. Here are the new selections for Summer!
Now let's look at some project inspiration from Creative Team member Jayne Nelson. She created some magic with our Summer products. This first card features several fabulous new clear stamp sets: Beautiful Day, Be You, and Encouragement Sentiment Strips. Note, the Encouragement Sentiment Strips also pair perfectly with our Sentiment Strips Fancy Die!
This next clever card features new letter dies - Luggage Lowercase Alphabet Fancy Dies. You may recall, the uppercase version has been in our line for a while, and now you can pair them together! There are also coordinating Luggage Lowercase Alphabet clear stamps in this Summer release as well. We love how Jayne paired the die cuts with another phrase from Encouragement Sentiment Strips.
The star of this final card from Jayne is the background, which features Positive Script Bold Prints. We love what a beautiful backdrop it creates for Jayne's focal point, using some of the same stamp sets we've mentioned above.
And now it's time to hop! Visit all of these amazing artists for inspiration and ideas for using the new Summer products. We'll be giving away two $50 gift cards, drawn from the comments left along the hop. Comment on all the blogs for more chances to win! You have until Sunday, May 28 at 11:59pm to enter. The winners will be announced on the Hero Arts blog.
