Hello Friends, How are you today? I am super excited to be hopping along with Hero Arts for the new February My Monthly Kit. Woo Hoo!! Right off the bat I have to tell you that kit value and it is over $70 & it’s such an amazing deal at $34.99!! Double WOW!
To start at the beginning of the hop go to the Hero Arts blog here. I have lots to share with you today so let’s jump right in shall we.
To watch the video click here.
In the video I share the masking of the images and my process as the card came together using my markers and blending solution.
Masking adorable images and watching a scene unfold is super fun. The “Fun in the Rain” add on stamp set has so many great possibilities! Adding a stencil with some distress ink is a quick finish and allows time to add more tiny details to my images. Adding “droplets” from Pretty Pink Posh gave my one layer card more dimension. (I used both sizes ..this one too)
The new nesting cloud die cuts are perfect for some shaped cards. I would rather spend my time coloring the images and doing a quick background with a stencil. This stencil is such a beauty but, hard to see in the photo.
I wanted to create a little wagon for the baby duck to ride in but, didn’t have any wheels and racked my brain for a quick fix. Google eyes were the answer! Flipping them over and adding enamel accents on the back … it’s flat.. and it worked perfectly. After pouring some of the enamel accents on the back I set the wheels aside to dry and finish my other cards.
Another stencil was used for this background. The little pig is so cute and would cheer anyone up. I cut up the packaging from the cloud stacking dies for my shaker cards today instead of acetate. Yellow foam was used to build my layers so the sequins had plenty of room to move around.
The only problem is … photographing them is a challenge. I opted to stamp my sentiment on the background and pop my colored critters on the top of my shaker card. The “Nesting Clouds Infinity Dies” are so fun to create shaker cards with or to make a shaped card.
And … when you want to go super simple. Love the sentiments in this stamp set.
Isn’t this kit a jaw dropper? and the value is crazy! If you are wondering why I didn’t use any of this great product … because there was a limited supply … so I was gifted with the add ons & they are just as fab!
Keep in mind the is available and shipping but, for a limited time only – once it’s gone, it’s gone. Kits begin shipping from Hero Arts on Monday, February 13. If you won’t want to miss out and not have to worry about ordering each month .. subscribing is finally available YAY!!

Your card with the bear & duck/ducklings is adorable. And your colouring skills with Copics! Wow! I’m just getting started with Copics & can’t blend well at all. Guess it takes practice (& lessons). I live in the “Rain Forest” of coastal BC so would get lots of
good use from this wonderful set.
These are the cutest ever!

These are all super cute, Kathy. The shaker clouds look amazing and I love your pretty coloured duck scene. It was amazing to see how you brought the scene to live when you added the green for the grass.
Looking forward to the new colouring challenge. I am determined to do more colouring this year (and send out more cards), so count me in!
Hugs, Marianne x

Oh how fun – love your shaped cards. Such a fun kit.
Hi Kathy!
You have outdone yourself again!, Usually floral stamps catch my eye, and I don’t look much further. I LOVE this Play in the Rain set! It is so cute!
You really “quacked” me up when you mentioned you wanted to do some (Copic) “feathering” on those precious ducks! Lol
These cards are all wonderful! I have never worked with what appear to be tiny images. You aced all of these cards! I loved to see you make he puddles and turning the little umbrella into a wagon–it is priceless! We collect bears around here. I don’t believe I have one with a multi-colored, glossy umbrella! Lol
Two more things…is that a sheet of paper (the blue) that you photographed the photos on? Maybe a table cloth? Would you please let me know the designer and name? I really am drawn to it.
And, Sweetie, IF someone has accused you of using their style of coloring…let it go! I am sure it hurts a lot! You have a history with us and on the Internet and company websites to back you up! And, that should not be needed! People pick up a little bit of how to color here and there…well, everywherexcept! We know your sincere nature. We hear you give credit to people for every little thing. We know you are honest. Two people may use blues for sky colors…one doesn’t need to start using green for a sky! (An extreme example.) There is so much hurt and anger out in the world. Don’t let someone bring it into your coloring haven. We believe in you!
We’re really in your corner! You know the truth. Hold your head high. And color on…
He-IS-Able!

p.s. I’m very excited to March! It’sounds on my calendar!
Super!
Great cards the animals are so full of life and expression. Don’t worry about what others think. I always figure – if I know I am inspired by a particular person I give them credit . If not well very little is truly new in the art world it is just new to the individual and inspiration is a chain reaction. Only God can say he created the original of anything.
I also have to remember when someone actually creates a true copy of something I have done that imitation is a form of flattery.
Thanks for all the great cards and ideas you have shared.
Love those wheels!!! What a great idea to add enamel accents to googlie eyes to create those adorable wheels. And your coloring is superb as always! Looking forward to your next coloring challenge – I’m hoping to participate this time!
Those are all so cute!
You are the queen of coloring. These projects are so adorable, and the kit is a must have.
Oh Kathy! These remind me so much of old fashioned children’s books! I love them!!!
Oh my, such a wonderful set of cuteness–love those little shaker cards–great job!

I love your designs. Now I wish I’d added the extra stamps onto my order when I ordered the kit.

OMG, the shape cards are the bomb! What an awesome idea and I love how you used your creativity to make the wheels using google eyes!
Your cards are so sweet! I really like the cloud shakers what a cute idea!

Awesome, the way everything just pops from the card. I really enjoy watching your coloring process and am so thankful that you share with us.

Kathy, your cards are adorable. I especially like the cloud shaker with the umbrella cart; it is so clever and cute as can be. I really enjoy using stencils, and you really bring the point home that I should use them more often.
Thank you for sharing your process on video, and for sharing your fear of being accused of copying. I echo the suggestion that you let it go, and to not let it cloud your coloring experience. I hope that you will find comfort in knowing that the aesthetic you share with us is all your own, and if someone feels otherwise, it’s on them, not on you. Thank you again for sharing your talent.
Gorgeous little shaker-clouds!! Thanks for sharing this with us.
Have a great day!

So cute. I love shaped cards and shakers. Thanks for the video and all the tips. I love all of your stenciled backgrounds. That’s a great idea.
This release has so many amazing items – thanks for sharing some of your ideas! These cards are gorgeous!
I think people can confuse technique and design sometimes, we all use basically the same technique because we’re using pretty much the same tools, but the way you use the techniques, how you bring things together for the final design – that part is unique to each and every person. Just look at this blog hop – everyone were using the same group of stamps, dies and stencils and everyone came up with unique and different results!
Thanks for sharing your creativity and inspiring us all – I hope all the love you’re getting here will cheer you up! You’re an original – we know it and hopefully you know it too ❤❤❤
OMG! These are amazing, such cute ducks , I love all of your designs.
I love the little shakers you made!
Your coloring is unique and you! I can tell a look a like from an actual Kathy Rac and I alway,s always love what you make. That stamp set is so darn cute and I need it.

Oh what fun in the rain! My grandson (age 9) and I enjoyed your video of making these cards. His favorite part is the duck wagon. I love it all. You are so talented. I want to win this kit soooooo bad and my grandson says he would help using these too!
Oh my your cards are awesome.
Oh what great cards! They are all so cute! Thanks so much for sharing! 🙂
Kathy your cards look amazing. You always see things in stamps that I totally missed. I am so sorry if you were accused of stealing someone’s coloring style. Your coloring is amazing and so unique and all your own I don’t see how you could be accused of stealing someone else’s look. I always tell myself when someone falsely accuses me of something, that I know the truth and so does God and that is all that matters. And then usually the real truth has a way of showing up!!! Please don’t stress over it, you are amazing and it is not worth the worry!!!
Thanks so much Kim I really appreciate your heartfelt advice and it’s so appreciate it. Just to clarify no one accused me of that but, it’s just my fear. I need to get over it. Hugs and gratitude, Kathy
The first thing that caught my eye was the umbrella on the first card; the coloring is gorgeous!!!!
Kathy all of your cards are so amazing and your colouring is gorgeous, I love your ducky scene with the bear! You continue to amaze my with your incredible talent, your colouring is so unique and distinctively you, please don’t let anyone take the joy of that away from you ever! Thank you for sharing all of your stunning work with all of us, you really are inspiring! (And I can’t wait for March 1st, I will defiantly be colouring along!!!)
Loved the cloud shaped shaker cards, so clever!
Absolutely adorable cards and fantastic coloring!
Holy cow! I am so,in love with the little duckling in her umbrella wagon! And the shaker cards are awesome. Thank you for the inspiration. It looks like I am going to have to poke around your beautiful site now. And get ready for the coloring challenge! So glad I hopped on over here today!

Kathy, thank you for sharing another wonderful video! I love watching you colour and listening to you. Love this card , so sweet! Your colouring is beautiful as always x
Love what you made using the kit and add ons – love the cloud shapes because they make me happy!
Sounds like someone is really getting to you dear, as far as I’m concerned it doesn’t matter who does what first, it just matters that it looks good. Myself I have watched you for a few years now and always come back and always will. So just keep up the great work and the awesome video’s. Super cards can’t wait to get my set in to start making some.
Those nesting clouds dies are really great! TFS!

Kathy, once again you have out done yourself!! How I adore this card kit and all the releases that came along!! Those add ons are as wonderful as the kit too!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE every card you created. Your such an inspiration. Thank you.
The shaker clouds are Oh So Cute. Sad the kit is all sold out.
These cards look great, Kathy! The add-ons for this months kit are really wonderful!
Wow Kathy! Your cards are adorable. I love the one you filmed (the duck in wellies kills me!) but I am also in love with those gorgeous shakers. Really really cute and fun cards! And as always your attention to detail lifts them to another level altogether. You always sound like you are enjoying the process of colouring too, it’s so engaging. Hugs, Lisa xx
They are super adorable and cut shakers!!!! LOVE them!
Love the cloud shaker cards. After seeing them I just had to get them. Can’t wait to get them.
Those shaker cards are my fave! Looking forward to the next coloring challenge too! 🙂
Your coloring is always amazing. And it shows in the result of your projects.
Wow, you thought out of the box too. Only one other person so far above you on the list made 1 shaker card. You made a whole bunch! You made 4 cards! That’s amazing and you used my favorite color, yellow, on some of your cards. You’ve made my day. You’re coloring is on point as usual and I love the stamps. I love the whole stamp set and it sure would be nice to win it. Great job as usual.
Lovely coloring and amazing card ideas!! Love it!!
