Hello Everyone, For Day 12. of the coloring challenge I am thrilled be part of the Hero Arts/Concord & 9th Partner Release Hop! If you have just come from the lovely and talented Kristina Werner’s blog, you are in the right spot. If not, please start at the amazingly talented and oh so kind Jennifer McGuire’s blog. This is a blog hop you won’t want to miss; it is full of great tips and lots of eye candy!
Hero Arts is continuing to celebrate 45 magical years making stampers like you and I happy. Most of my first stamps (wood block) are by Hero Arts. These “vintage” stamps still are near and dear to my heart, but I also enjoy my newer Hero Arts cling and clear stamp sets. Concord & 9th also creates versatile stamp sets and I love both companies so it’s pretty cool that they are doing this Partner Hop!
Since 45 years is H.U.G.E. and I credit Hero Arts with saving me during my kids teens years and getting me to this point in my life creatively and leading me to some of my favorite people on this planet …. I had to make a bonus love you card. See that at the bottom of my post.
In my humble opinion, the Concord & 9th turnabout stamp sets are great fun, and are so much easier to use if you own a MISTI (Most Incredible Stamp Tool invented). The MISTI is one of my favorite tools because it saves time and there is very little room for error or mistakes.
Can you believe I haven’t used a turnabout stamp set before! Crazy right! I have to tell you I was intimidated before but, not any more. I found the stamping easy and so fun to watch the pattern take place even with black ink. Since I am in the middle of The Daily Marker 30 Day Coloring Challenge I opted to stamp with black ink so I could watercolor a background. (If you are wondering what the heck the coloring challenge is click here.)
These are the two panels that I stamped on watercolor paper.
Are turnabout stamps new to you? Check out the picture tutorial above, which uses “ink” colors before rotating the stamp: dark teal green, gray, red, and mint green. A quick, easy, and colorful background created in just a few minutes. Concord & 9th has a terrific tutorial for turnabout stamps. It demonstrates how to use any turnabout stamp and jig in the MISTI tool.
In celebration of their 45th birthday I love that these two amazing companies, Hero Arts and Concord & 9th, have combined their talents to create this turnabout clear stamp set (and related products): These stamps are available for purchase today at Hero Arts. The product is officially called PR100 HA + C9 Props Turnabout. It starts shipping next week, so add it to your My Monthly Hero (MMH) box! They will be available online and in your local stamp store on July 10th. Do you like coordinating dies versus fussy cutting by hand? The rounded rectangle infinity die is also available for purchase today.
GIVEWAY! If you would like a chance to win: one stamp set, one jig, and one rounded rectangle infinity die set, please leave a comment by Sunday, June 30th at 11:59pm PST. The winner will be announced next week on the Hero Arts blog. Good luck! Your next stop on the hop is talented Jessica Frost-Ballas.
This stamp set is just the cutest ever and it’s called, “Succulent Animals” and I had to do some real coloring for Hero Arts. Happy Happy BD to Hero Arts and love and gratitude to them. Also lots of love to Concord & 9th for this special partnership.
Thank you so much for hopping by my blog today and I will see some of you tomorrow for Day 13. of the 30 Day Coloring Challenge. Hugs, Kathy
P.S. If you get lost along the way, here is a complete hop list:

Awesome creations! I love the HA & Concord & 9th! I love your watercolored Turnabout! and the turtles are adorable!
You are the kindest blog friend, Lagene! You really brightened my day 🙂
Turnabouts are such fun and you made a terrific card from this one today, complete with that beautiful yellow wrap! Love those turtles too!
Sharon, you are so sweet! Thank you so much 🙂
The turtles are too cute!! I love that they carry around their garden with their house 🙂
LOL, Sharon, that garden hose cracks me up too! I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
OMG! In love with that turtle cactus stamp and the card you made with it! And that sentiment!!! Got to have it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Dot, it is a great sentiment; I couldn’t agree more! I appreciate your loyal blog following and all of your thoughtful and kind comments 🙂
Those succulent guys are so cute. I find the idea of stamped backgrounds scary , but those turn about stamps make it look possible.
Theresa, I know what you mean about stamped backgrounds! The turnabouts do make it less stressful and so much faster. Thank you for your kind comment 🙂
Love the little turtles and cacti, cactus….darling prickly desert plants! ;D
Sharla, those succulents are darling images, aren’t they? I am glad I am not the only one “stuck” by their cuteness 🙂
You are so talented with copics and colored pencils!
Michele, you are so sweet to say so! Thanks for making my day 🙂
I love the way you colored the turnabout stamp! Such a beautiful, bright card!
Kim, that is kind! Thanks so much 🙂
I always love your coloring! Such fun examples today!
Thank you, Kari! You make my heart happy with your sweet comments 🙂
Love your Turnabout stamped card Kathy! The bonus card is soooo cute! I am enjoying this HA and Concord & 9th Partner Hop.
Thank you, Giselaine! I am so happy that you are enjoying the hop 🙂
Holy guacamole! HA & C&9 are a match made in heaven!!! I freakin’ love when stamp companies collaborate for new sets!!! I’d love to see what either HA or C&9 would come up with if they collab’ed with MFT *sigh* That would be dreamy!!! I gotta tell you… even though C&9 sometimes show a turnabout in all one color, its never black and this is just genius! I never thought about coloring my turnabouts!!! And thinking about it now, even the solid image turnabouts could be done in fadeout/barely there ink and no-line colored! I may just have to give that a go today!!! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
Karen, your ideas totally inspired me! You will have to share your colored w/no line ink turnabout projects. Brilliant idea 🙂
Ooh, what fun that set would be, Kathy! And, I do just love those turtles with the cactus. Wonderfully colored!
Jean, it is such a fun set! I am so happy that you like my cards and coloring. I appreciate your stopping by my blog 🙂
I recently tried the turn about stamps & love them for backgrounds. Hero Arts is one of my favorite companies, so this partnership is awesome. And your cards are awesome too!
Vickie, I agree completely; such an amazing collaboration! I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
Your cactus turtles are a fantastic. The coloring is just gorgeous!
Thanks so much, Madeline! I am thrilled that you like my coloring 🙂
Oh the turnabout stamp set is cute…but I love the other set with the Succulent Animals those are just adorable!
Buffy, I agree! Those succulent animals images make my heart happy too 🙂
Fun projects and a fabulous collaboration between 2 equally fab companies. I love my turnabout stamps and I adore your anniversary card, Kathy!
Marianne x
You are so kind, Marianne! Thank you so much 🙂
Such fun, beautiful cards! I love the yellow tulle ribbon over the vellum!
Thank you very much, Zlatka! I appreciate that so much 🙂
Enjoyed seeing how you used the netting., I’ve often wanted to try it but just couldn’t think of a way to make it work.
Katie, I know what you mean about the netting (or wide ribbon too). I find that if I have a busy repetitive background, that it works well. I hope that is helpful to you. Thank you for stopping by my blog 🙂
Simply fabulous!!!! Wow…this looks like so much fun!!! thank you for the chance to win!
Kim, that is so kind of you to say! It was loads of fun. Thank you for stopping by my blog 🙂
Oh my what an amazing stamp! Love the turnabouts and I NEED those dies! Thanks for sharing
Diane, yes, you need these dies! Glad you like the stamp 🙂
Hero Arts is just one of the best and I agree with you and think they deserve all the praise given to them for this amazing 45 years of inspiration and giving back. I love it that other companies see this too and this collaboration between Concord & 9th and Hero is a great example. What a cute set and I love your use of it. The Cact-us card is so dear and says it all!
Barbara, so true! Thank you for your sweet comment 🙂
such cuties
Thanks, Colleen! I am grateful taht you took time to stop by my blog 🙂
Amazing cards. Love the succulent turtles.
That is sweet of you to say, Sue! Thank you 🙂
Glad you finally got to use a turnabout stamp, they are so fun
Yes, now I’ve caught the turnabout bug! Thanks for stopping by my blog 🙂
Amazing coloring as usual! Love Hero Arts and Concord & 9th. What a great duo.
Deb, you are so sweet! HA and C&9 are a fab duo 🙂
What a great card – so very bright and cheerful! Turnabout stamps are loads of fun!
You brightened my day, Rosalie! Yes, now I am aware of the fun I’ve been missing out on with turnabout stamps 🙂
Still learning coloring techniques, you are AMAZING! Thank you for the chance to win these products!
Carol, you are so thoughtful to say so! You are welcome and good luck 🙂
I love how much YOU love color!!
LOL, Nan! Guilty as charged 🙂
I love your bold design with the rainbow of colors. This is such an awesome collaboration set!
You are so sweet, Amy! I agree, an awesome dual collaboration 🙂
I think Concord & 9th turnabouts are one of the most innovative stamps. It’s fun feeling like your creating your very own custom patterned paper each and every time.
I’m not good at fussy cutting, so I tend to use Dies more often. And it’s so great that these two companies have come together for this special occasion.
Well said, Michelle! I couldn’t agree more. I appreciate your kind and thoughtful comment 🙂
Fabulous, Kathy! I love what Hero Arts are doing for the community, and this stamp set is soooooo cool!
You are so sweet, Mirella! Thank you so much 🙂
This Turnabout would be fun for a card to kids, to young adults, and all those young at heart.
So true, Nessy! Thank you for your kind comment 🙂
Your coloring is amazing of the turtles and cactus. Love all the Turnabout stamp set which are so easy to make colorful backgrounds. So fun and bright! Love it!
Margery, you are so thoughtful! You make my heart smile 🙂
Love that these two companies can work together! So nice to see. Love the stamps, cards and inspiration. 😀
I agree, Janet! I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
This is a different image, love all the colors . great card. It will cheer someone up who receives it.
Thanks so much, Geri! That means a lot to me 🙂
Really cool ideas for using this set!
Thank you, you are very kind to say so 🙂
I have yet to use a turn about stamp -yet I own 3 of them from Concord and 9th. There is such a variety now. Your colouring on the turtle and cactus is amazing. Thank you for the opportunity to win the prize package.
If you haven’t seen it yet, Carol, I recommend the C&9 video that I linked in this post. It helped me tremendously with my first time using a turnabout. I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
I love turnabout stamps but never thought to use black ink and color them in…great idea!
Gail, I am glad I inspired you! It’s funny because I think I am always thinking of coloring when it would be easier to use different inks to stamp in. Thank you for stopping by my blog 🙂
I often forget to use the basics…such as a card with totally primary colors. Thanks for the inspiration!
Kris, I am so happy that you liked my color combo! Thank you for your lovely comment 🙂
Such bright and fun colors used. Really like these cards. The turnabout stamp looks good in color and in black & white as well. Cannot wait to get my hands on this set.
Korey, this is a great set. I hope you enjoy it too. Thank you for your kind words 🙂
I am so in love with those turtles!! How sweeeet!!!
Becca, they are seriously cute images, aren’t they? I heart Hero Arts. I appreciate your stopping by my blog 🙂
I’ve never used one of the Turnabout stamps. I was sure I wasn’t smart enough to figure it out. However, after seeing it demonstrated in this hop, I think I can do it! Your cards and, of course, your coloring are wonderful. My first stamps, too, were Hero Arts wood mounted, and I still pull them out from time to time. Tthey’re still are crisp as ever.
Cyndi, I highly recommend the C&9 video that I linked…it was very helpful to me before I started my card! Your kindness makes me smile. Thank you so much 🙂
I love your colorful and fun watercolored version of the turnabout stamp. You’ve inspired me to try this technique!!! Thank you!
Kimber, you are the sweetest! Thank you for your sweet comment. You have me grinning ear-to-ear 🙂
Gorgeous cards!! I love how colorful the turn about became. So lovely!! The turtles are just to die for!! I love the sentiment, too.
Laurie, thank you so much! You brightened my day 🙂
I love the watercoloring on this turnabout stamp. It must have taken a log time to color. I also love the succulent animals. They remind me of the Southwestern culture.
Thank you, Megan! I love to color, and I adore cute animals and succulents 🙂
Beautiful cards! I’ve never used a turnabout stamp either although I have a small one I received at a stamp show last year. Love the colors on the succulent animals card.
Kathy, I hope you give your turnabout stamp a try! I definitely recommend the C&9 video that I linked to. It helped me make this turnabout (my first try ever.) Thank you for stopping by my blog 🙂
Great partnership! Love the bright colors – brilliant for this turnabout!
Geri, that is kind! Thank you very much 🙂
You are such an inspiration…your watercoloring is Great!
You are so sweet to say so, Deloris! I appreciate that very much 🙂
Such cute cards! Love the turnabout stamp and the cacti card is adorable.
Thanks for sharing…
Thank you for stopping by my blog, Jeanne! I am so happy that you like the stamp and succulent animals card 🙂
Such a colorful layout!
Thanks, Pennie! I appreciate your taking time to leave a comment 🙂
Aren’t the Turnabout stamps fun! I love your succulent tortoises – so beautifully coloured!
Manda, yes, it was so much fun! Thank you for your sweet compliment 🙂
I bought a turn about when they first came out and never could make it look right. I love the jig that they now have so maybe I can try that. I hope so because I love the look of what you made today. So cool!
Sandy, you gotta try the jig! That is the secret for sure. I am grateful that you took the time to leave a comment on my blog 🙂
Wow, what a beautiful card with watercoloring, which is something I must overcome.
Megan, just keep playing and have fun with it! Thank you for popping by my blog 🙂
Did you make a shrinky dink to go on the ribbon? It looks cute.
No, but that is a great idea, Amy! I glossy accent everything. It is the only adhesive I buy…truly. And I use it for everything. I am grateful that you stopped by my blog 🙂
I really really really love your card Kathy. Such bright and cheerful and celebratory colours. I love how you coloured in the turnabout stamped design. The new turnabout stamp from C9 is fantastic and is such a positive message.
Those tortoises you coloured are just adorable. I love the little succulents on their back. Super cute and fabulous colouring. Thank you for your ongoing inspiration.
Julie, your kindness makes me smile! Thank you 🙂
Kathy,
I, too, am extremely intimidated by turnabout stamps, but I’ve decided that I just need to try them. The results are so great! I love your comment about stamping getting you through the “teenage” years with your kids. LOL!! I totally understand!! 🙂 Beautiful coloring as always.
Angie, the trick is the jig. I would fail miserably at using a turnabout without the jig. Watch the C&9 video that I linked to. I couldn’t have made the card without their excellent tutorial 🙂
OMG…Beautiful vibrant colors! Love that you’ve used bold colors on your cards.
Sharon, I am thrilled that you like my coloring choices! Thank you so much 🙂
I have not used a turnabout stamp either, actually just learned of them recently watching a video by Jennifer McGuire. It looks quite easy and I would love to try one. Thank you for your videos, you explain really well how to color with many different mediums, will be watching more if your videos!
Barbara, they are easy, but you have to use the jig! That is the secret. If you haven’t seen the C&9 video that I linked to, watch that first. Jennifer explains it well, of course. I am grateful for your sweet words 🙂
Thanks for sharing your ideas. You don’t look like you had any problem using the turnabout stamp.
Maria, using the jig is the secret to turnabout stamps…otherwise my card would have been a mess 🙂
I have a lot of turnabouts, but never, never thought to stamp in black and color them in. I LOVE the way that looks. Thank you for the idea, and thanks to Hero Arts and Concord and 9th for these two great products!
Annie, I always think about coloring first…that is my natural go-to. I am tickled that I inspired you! Thank you for your kind comment 🙂
So vibrant!
I especially like the bonus card.
Thanks, Sheri! I am grateful for your lovely comment 🙂
So fun to see how everyone uses this collaborative set differently! Love the positivity behind the Props set! And I thought your bonus card was really cute! Thanks!
Joni, you make my heart smile! How kind of you 🙂
Definitely need to have this stamp set. Love both companies. And I LOVE how vibrant your card is!
Christine, two amazing companies and together….pure awesomeness! I appreciate your kind words 🙂
Wow what a great stamp set love my turnabouts.
Thanks, Diane! That is sweet of you to say 🙂
Your cards are amazing! Thanks for sharing.
I appreciate that so much, Nikki! Thanks 🙂
Love your coloring of the cacti!
Thank you so much, Tona! I am grateful to you 🙂
looks so fun! I love your cactus and turtle coloring !
June, it was loads of fun! I am tickled that you like my coloring 🙂
Love all the beautiful bright colors you used. The turtle and cactus are adorable.. your coloring technique, as usual is awesome.
Sharie, you are the sweetest! Thank you so much 🙂
So pretty! Love your step by step photos!
Thanks, Susan! That is kind 🙂
The Turnabout card is lovely and colorful. I just love the card you made featuring the Cactus Animals. That is the cutest and two of my favorite subjects combined on a card.
I appreciate that so much, Vicki! I am in total agreement with you on the cacti animals. I’m in good company with you 🙂
Eye candy is an understatement!
A perfectly festive card to honor HAs 45th…
Awww, Mary, you make me blush! Thanks for the smile 🙂
Congratulations to Hero Arts!! That Succulent Animals set is just too cute and you did a fantastic job creating a card with it!
Kristen, how sweet of you to say so! Thank you for your kind words 🙂
I get so inspired when I see your work. I love your videos where I can actually see you coloring!
Jean, so noted! I am so appreciative of your loyal following 🙂
I love that you can do the whole background in black and white and then color at leisure. Looks fabulous and I love the encouraging stamps!!
I am so happy that you like my background and stamp choices, Kerry! You made my day 🙂
Wonderful coloring.. you always inspire me.. thanks for sharing..
That is kind! Thanks 🙂
A terrific idea to stamp the turnabout stamp in black and white and then add the color making it even more vibrant than just stamping it with colored ink. My favorite though is the tulle you used and put the cut out message on it. Thank you so much for sharing your work.
Laura, I am happy that you like my background idea! I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
What a great collaboration! I love to color and I think that young people would like to color this positive thoughtful card. Thank you for sharing your techniques with us!
Nanette, your sweet comment makes me smile! Thank you so much 🙂
Love turnabouts! So many options
Abby, I am now a fan too 🙂
So much fun!!
Hi, Jean! I am glad you like it. Thank you for stopping by my blog, friend 🙂
Love both cards Kathy! You are super talented! Thanks for the inspiration and happy anniversary to HA.
You are so sweet, Liz! Thank you very much 🙂
I love that trendy new turnabout set. Your cards and coloring are stunning as always!

Lovely, Kathy! And your bonus card for HA is so sweet!
Thanks, Dori! I appreciate that so much 🙂
Wonderfully done!!!
Thanks, Kirsty! That means a lot to me 🙂
Beautiful cards! I am inspired to color!
Go color, Maureen! I am glad you like my cards 🙂
Kathy you are so creative! Everything is gorgeous! Congratulations to Heroe Arts!
Xoxo Olga
You are so good to me, Olga! Thank you so much 🙂
Great job coloring both of your cards.
That is kind, Elizabeth! Thank you 🙂
Wow! Just love these cards!
Thanks, Jan! I am grateful for your compliment 🙂
Oh man…I need to jump on the turnabout train too! I’ve seen these products so many times and just never went for it, but this set might be the one that does it!
Denise, the secret is the jig. It is a game changer! Watch the C&9 video I linked to, it will make it easy and fun to do. Thanks for stopping by my blog 🙂
I seriously love those turnabout stamp sets – and this one looks amazing! Love what you created with it. Thank you for your continuing inspiration:)
Mary, you are so thoughtful! I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
What a fun turnabout stamp! I love your bright colors for this. Works beautifully.
It is a really fun image, isn’t it, DJ? I am glad you like my color choices 🙂
OMGoodness, I love your card! So bright and cheerful! I’ve owned a turnabout stamp but just recently used it because I was as intimidated by it. Well, no more, with the jig it’s so easy!
Melissa, you brightened my day! Thank you. The jig is a game changer 🙂
Wow! You did an amazing job with this Turnabout stamp! I love how you colored the images! So fun and festive!
Lauryne, you make my heart smile! Thanks so much 🙂
Wow what amazing cards. Love the turnabout stamp and especially the color palette you chose. I have to say that vellum and netting added the Wow factor. Really love the little Cactus animals and must check that stamp set out as it is darling! Happy 45th Anniversary Hero Arts!!!
What a lovely compliment, Tricia! You brightened my day 🙂
Love the bright colors using the turnabout stamp. Beautiful card
Linda, I am so happy that you like my color choices! Thanks 🙂
I love Turnabouts! Your coloring is gorgeous.
Thank you, Rene! I appreciate that so much 🙂
I love how bright and cheery your card is
That is so kind of you, Carol! Thanks so much 🙂
Fabulous, fun cards. Love these stamps!
Jenny, I am really glad that you like them! I love these stamps too 🙂
The little turtle card is so adorable. The turn about stamp set looks so fun, I have not tried them yet, would love to. I’m very happy for Hero Arts 45th, the first stamp I ever purchased was one of theirs. I’m so glad they were able to celebrate and collaborate with Concord and 9th!
You are so sweet, Sheri! I hope you try the turnabout stamps, but when you do, remember the jig is the secret to success. Thanks for stopping by my blog 🙂
Love the colors. Another great idea for the turnabout stamp set.
Thanks so much, Jan! You are so sweet to say so 🙂
Kathy, you came up with the coolest idea about stamping this turnabout stamp in black ink & then using it as a colouring page. I like the colours you used on your card. Your colouring skills ah-maze me. I don’t own a turnabout stamp but would consider this one as it is encouraging & versatile as well. I admire Concord & 9th collaborating with Hero Arts to celebrate their 45th as well as their friendship.
Teri, you are so thoughtful! My heart is happy after reading your lovely comment. Coloring is my go-to, and I have lots of practice LOL. I am happy that you like it 🙂
Hero Arts has touched most all of us in some way. It is such an awesome company. I do have some Concord&9th products but have not purchased a turnabout yet. This one looks pretty fun and I think it would work for more than one occasion. Love your creation Kathy. Those succulents on the turtles is adorable. Great coloring by the way…..
Anne, the turnabouts are great fun! The jig is the secret to success. Please remember that when you try it. Thanks for stopping by my blog, friend 🙂
Hero arts is a great loving and caring company and it’s awesome to see the collaboration between them and other companies.
Stunning card with the lovely succulent tutles, your colouring is as always, gorgeous.
Thank you so much for this post, see you tomorrow. Happy colouring.
Hello, sweet friend! Thank you for your kind words. See you tomorrow. I hope you are finding ways to stay cool…keep hydrated 🙂
Wish I could color like that! I have been wanting to try the turnabout stamps.
JL, that is so kind of you to say! The secret of the turnabouts is the jig. You gotta use it for the pattern to emerge correctly…and it makes it faster too 🙂
Your card Is unique and colorful! I just love this collaboration of hero arts and C+9
Thank you so much, Phyllis! I am happy that you like my cards and the awesome collaborative set 🙂
Awesome cards, Kathy
That is sweet of you, Marisela! Thanks 🙂
So cute! Such great cards with the new release. You are taleneted. Inspiration jumps off the blog!
Darlene, you are very sweet! Thank you so much 🙂
Wow another awesome turnabout stamp. I like how you colored your amazing background.
I appreciate your kind words! Thank you for stopping by my blog 🙂
Thank you for admitting your hesitation to use the turnabout system; I have had a couple sets and have yet to use them! 0.0
Your card is brilliant; the yellow netting gives it just the right “super-hero” feel 🙂
It’s a great way to celebrate the 45th birthday of Hero Arts and this fantastic collaboration with Concord & 9th.
Thank you.
Teri, break yours out! The secret for me was watching the C&9 video on how to use the jig. It is a must. I am thrilled that you like my cards 🙂
Awesome uses! Love this set!
Thanks so much, Lisa! I appreciate that 🙂
Love how you added color to this new turnabout. Beautiful!
Thank you, Jennifer! I love to color 🙂
I love how the stamping industry is so supportive of each other! Great cards Kathy!
I agree, Gab! I find the crafting community as a whole is supportive of one another…together we are all better for it 🙂
I am happy that you liked my cards. Thanks!
Aren’t Turnabout stamps awesome?! I love the bright colors you used with this fun stamp.
Yes, Bonnie, I am now a fan! I am thrilled that you like my color choices 🙂
Cute card! Love the look of the primary colors! TFS!
Thank you, Melaina! I am glad you like it 🙂
Love the idea of stamping this turn about stamp in black ink and then coloring it in. I’ll have to take another look at my other turnabout stamps to see which ones can be used for this technique. I think it’s great that Hero Arts and Concord & 9th teamed up to bring us this stamp set!
Michele, I am glad you liked my idea of coloring the turnabout background! Thank you for taking time to stop by my blog and leave a comment 🙂
It’s amazing how the same stamp can turn out so different with an ink colour! It’s great to see collaborations occurring. Thanks for the inspiration.
Robyn, it is pretty cool, isn’t it? I am inspired too by all the different cards using this set for the hop. Thank you so much for your kind comment 🙂
Wonderful creations – the Turn About watercolor panel is awesome and the little cactus animals are adorable! Thanks for the inspiration!

What could be better than a match of Hero Arts and Concord & 9th. The turnabout stamps are so incredible. Love your cards and your coloring and well, all of it. Thanks for the creative inspiration.
Karen, you brightened my day! Your sweet words make my heart happy 🙂
You have done such a great job! Your cards are so full of fun and color! Concord and 9th were so kind to celebrate Hero Arts 45th anniversary. The 29th is my 45th wedding anniversary! We all have such great taste! Keep up your sharing your talent with others. You are an inspiration.
Bessie, you are so sweet to say so! You made my heart happy 🙂

Hi, Mary! I am grateful for your sweet comment 🙂
I love how bright and vibrant your first card is! That second card is too, too adorable.
Wendy, you brightened my day with your lovely comment! Thanks so much 🙂
Love how you colored the turnabout background, and those succulent critters are s cute!
Miriam, you are always so kind! Thank you 🙂
I love how you did those cards! They are so cool! I heard about those turnabout stamps but I don’t have one yet. I love how you used them especially the colorful one. The one with the turtle & the cactus are so cute! I had a friend a long time ago who had some Cacti, 2 of them. She named them Cac & Tus & I thought that was so cute. That’s what these remind me of. Great cards & whoever gets them will love them!
Hi Gail! I am so happy that you like my cards. I will have to call these guys Cac & Tus from now on LOL 🙂
Adorable succulent critters!
Love your fabulous, fun Amaze card. Darling little critters, too.
