I have FIVE CARDS to share today! I am thrilled that each of these cards was published in the
2024 Holiday Catalog.
Holiday Products Used:
I absolutely loved creating this card as it includes several new products and just looks like cotton candy filled icicles. (The Adult Disney in me was channeling It's a Small World... did I succeed?). This card panel began with the
Geometric Holiday Stencil that I inked in Soft Blossom and Dandelion. I kept the stencil in place on the panel, and then stamped the
Festive Pattern Bold Prints stamp with Granite Ink. THEN again while keeping the stencil in place, I spread Glitter Paste on top with the palette knife. NOW I'm finally ready to remove the stencil.
I finished off the card with some snowflakes cut from Arctic Cardstock and the new
Snowflake Pattern Cover Plate. The sentiment is from another new set called
Offset Holiday Messages. Finally, I added some Hero Hues Enamel Dots to follow along the pattern of the snowflakes.

This card is much more traditional with it's festive green and red colors. It features the beautiful woodblock
Little Finch stamp, which I colored with Polychromos Colored Pencils and fussy cut. The background panel begins with Shamrock Cardstock that was die cut with the Rounded Jewels Infinity Dies. I then inked with Pine Ink through the
Holiday Foliage Stencil. Next, I hot foiled in gold with the
Wreath and Finch Letterpress + Foil Plate using my Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Machine.
I glued the Shamrock panel onto a lovely Cranberry card base. The Little Finch was added with foam adhesive, and then I included the sentiment. The Merry Christmas stamp is embossed in Gold and die cut from the
Joyful Christmas Messages set.
Holiday Products Used:
I love this card because it is all about SNOWFLAKES! The
Kaleidoscope Snowflake Bold Print rubber stamp was embossed in White Powder on Nautical Cardstock. I then die cut it from the beautiful (and super versatile)
Perforation Cover Plate. This panel was mounted on Ultra Pink Cardstock, which you can see peeking through the perforation dots.
The finished panel was then sprayed with White Iridescent Shimmer Mist and Blue + Shimmer Metallic Spray. The snowflakes are cut from the
Snowflake Patterned Cover Plate and glued in a diagonal pattern. The sentiment from the
Joyful Christmas Messages bundle is embossed in White on Ultra Pink cardstock.

Now I have an autumn themed card to share! This
Fall Pattern Cover Plate is so great because it gives you a beautiful background, but also several individual leaves that can be used on a second card. The background uses Sand Cardstock that I heat embossed in Brass powder with the new
Fall Pattern stamp set (which pairs perfectly with the cover plate). Then the panel was sprayed with Orange Shimmer Metallic Spray and Bright Yellow and Copper Metallic Spray.
With the cut out
Fall Pattern Cover Plate from Espresso Cardstock, I placed it on top of the embossed leaf stamped panel. I then misted the entire card with Iridescent Shimmer Mist.

The final card I have published in the catalog is actually from my very first official Hero Arts blog post! I'm so honored they included this beauty in the catalog. Please
