Hello Friends, Welcome to Hero Arts My Monthly Hero Arts Kit blog hop!!I have 5 circle cards plus a bonus card for you today and I am super excited to be part of Hero’s hop with this group of lovely and talented ladies. (blog hop order will be at the bottom of my post)
FYI … I only used the stamps in the kit because just the stamps were available for me … I had to work ahead because I was going to be on vacation. (I also used some of the stamps from the add on’s to this kit)
To create my cards I cut two different size circles from Hero Art’s nesting circles to create a frame. Using the new add on background stamp I stamped the circle frames with this alcohol friendly ink. I glued some fun foam on the back of the circle frames to give my cards lots of dimension and then I colored the frames.
Three of the images from the kit were used and the dancers are from the “Shake Your Bones” stamp set and the taco dog lol is from “It’s Fiesta Time“.
The Hero Arts “My Monthly” kit the value is $74.oo & sells for only $34.99 CRAZY right?!
The main kit is available for a limited time only – once it’s gone, it’s gone. Kits begin shipping from Hero Arts on Friday April 6th. Just so you know that if you subscribe to receive the kit monthly you don’t have to worry about them selling out and never missing one.
The Hero Arts “My Monthly” kit contains LOTs of great stuff:
6″ x 8″ Clear Stamp Set, 20 Coordinating Frame Cuts Dies, 1 Ornate Floral Border Die, 3 Reactive Ink Cubes (Fiesta Red, Fiesta Teal, Fiesta Yellow) & 3 6″ x 18″ Sheets Unryu Paper (Assorted Colors)
For my bonus card I used the same background stamp as I did for my framed cards and colored only one of the circles for an accent instead.
I colored some twine with my marker, tied the twine around the tag, layered on my card base & popped with foam tape.
To make my image stand out I used this marker and a white gel pen.

Wow. I love all of your creations today, Kathy. The bright bold colors are perfect for these stamps.
It is an awesome kit and I love your coloring! I hope I win!
That set of framed circle cards are WAY too sweet!! What a terrific set!
These round cards are totally amazing Kathy. Would never have thought of doing that.
I love the concept of the coloured circle frame. You’ve used really vibrant and happy colours. Each card is wonderful on it’s own but as a set they’re stunning. I like your second project too with the black and white background stamping and the colourful pinata. Awesome! Thanks for sharing.
Love the coloring on your circle frame images and thebonus card. This set is really fun!
Love your circle cards, Kathy. So bright and colorful.
These are adorable. Great use of the entire kit!
Super fun circle cards! Love how you colored the background stamp and used it as a border on the circle cards. Also your coloring is lovely on these adorable images. 🙂
Lovely circle cards.
This kit is so fun! I love your circle cards and your other cards too. These stamps would be perfect for so many things–Birthday cards to party decorations.
Oh , the more I see the more I have to have this kit. Love it!
Love the round cards – amazing!
These circle cards are amazing, looking ready to party. This kit is awesome.
What a fun kit!! Love how you showcased the background stamp.
Your coloring is fantastic and makes the cards come alive. Can’t wait to start playing with my kit. Thanks for the inspiration.
Your circle cards are so cute! I thought they would be so cute for coasters! Then on second thought not after all that coloring. I love your bonus card too. TFS
Beautiful as always! Thank you!
Loving this fun kit and your creations make it shine.
The circle ones almost look like kitchen plates. Love the cards specially the tag card with the colors that change.
Your coloring is amazing, as usual. I keep staring at the little shadow detail you added to all the circle cards. It makes such a huge difference.
What cute circle cards I think they would make cute coasters.
Circles can add dimension and I love what you did with them! Ooh! Magnets!!
Love the cards you made, how unique and fun! Thanks for sharing your creativity!
Darling cards, love the
shape and all the images.

Love your cards! What a fab fun kit 🙂
Your shading is fantastic! I love the contrast of the black and white with all that color in the middle. Great job!
I LOVE how you coloured your stamps!!! I need to practice with my copics more!!
Oh my goodness, all of these are just as cute as can be! I love the creative ways that you have used the fabulous bg stamp! 🙂
I love all of the new ideas!
Lots of inspiration and beautiful coloring, Kathy.
Great cards!! So festive!!
Oh wow! You are super creative!! Fantastic ideas and execution! Love <3
Wow! Need I say more?
these are super fun
Such fun and festive cards. At first glance, I thought the circle cards were coasters. How cute would that be for a party. I love how you used the background stamp. The colored center with only black and white around the outside gives such a unique look and really draws your eyes to the main image.
Love all the colors you put into these cards. I am trying to use more than one color to add more to my cards, but it’s hard. Hard because I don’t know a lot about shading. But
I am trying! Hero Arts love your products.
Beautful bright colors
Wow!!! Your cards are really gorgeous!!! Love the bright colors!!!

Fun and festive cards. I really like the circle frames.
Kathy, those roses are crazy cool! But the balloons on the cat card remind me of the balloons on the movie “Up” and that makes it the happiest card!!
Thanks for sharing and a chance to win!

Adorable cards. This is a fun release. Thanks for sharing…
Love your ideas. So fun!
Wonderful cards! The images in this kit are so fun and call for bold colours. Love how you used the blanket pattern bold prints stamp on the last card and only spotlighted the circle behind the image and sentiment. Great colours!!
Your cards say “celebration” to me!
Awesome cards! Love this new kit, so festive and fun 🙂
Wonderful projects, love the colours and cute images!
