Hello Friend

If you're a fan of Hero Arts, you'll want to check out A Blog Named Hero, the brainchild of two crafty stampers--Linda and Mary Dawn. It's a brand new blog devoted to stampers who love Hero Arts and it's filled with tons of inspiration and challenges, too.

Their inaugural challenge is to feature your favorite Hero Arts stamps on a card or project. Here is my card featuring the new Lattice Background and a sentiment from All Occasion Messages.




The sentiment set is my "favoritest" because it features so many perfect sentiments in an assortment of fonts and I find myself reaching for it every time.

I'm also entering this in Hero Arts' monthly challenge with a shaped card technique. Shari Carroll shared this butterfly template here several years ago and I thought I'd pull it out again for the challenge.

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to visit and follow A Blog Named Hero to meet other stampers that share the Hero Arts love. See you there!
