SUBTLE Rainbow Winter Trees + World Cardmaking Day Live Hop!

Happy Caturday! I have two fun things for you today - a little sneaky peeky of this month's Hero Arts kit, and it's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas!

I'm keeping it simple this month, taking advantage of the detailed silhouette images in the set and using shadows to give them dimension. 

For this card, I used one of the trees from the set and using a small acrylic block, I stamped them in Hero Hues, just SLIGHTLY overlapping to create tiny pops of orange, green and purple! Like a little hidden rainbow - look closely!

I did flicking with an OLO marker at an angle to create shadows underneath, which instantly makes them look dimensional. SO simple and quick. The large sentiment is from the set as well.

There are more fun peeks today with some of the other images from the kit on the Hero Blog.
And - since it's world cardmaking day - please join me in a fun LIVE YouTube hop! They are short, 20 minute sessions and you will be automagically redirected throughout the hop as each live ends. I do NOT pretend to understand how that's going to work. I will be doing a quick Gel Press technique! I'm not on till 11 Central, but you can start the hop HERE at 10 AM Central. There's also a zoom party afterwards and giveaways!


Whatever you decide to do today - make it CRAFTY!

Loveyameanitbye.

  1. Cute card, Lydia. Love the pastels. I did a pink snowflake Christmas card once - seemed strange when I started, but I liked how it turned out!
