February My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #5 + Giveaway!

Hello and welcome to the next countdown post for the release of the February My Monthly Hero kit! Release day is tomorrow, Monday, February 6 at 1pm EST/10am PST. We’re here all weekend sharing ideas for using both the main kit, as well as several other new optional add-on products that will be available on Monday. And, don’t forget to comment on each and every post as we’ll be giving away a kit tomorrow morning before the kit launches! Now let’s join Jessica who is sharing another look at the main kit and add-ons, available on Monday!Good morning! Jess here with a simple card using lots of repeat stamping with stamps from the February My Monthly Hero kit as well as one of the optional add-on sets! I started by stamping the umbrella onto post-it notes and then I fussy cut them to create masks. I stamped and masked the umbrella repeatedly across the bottom of my card panel using Intense Black ink. I stamped an additional umbrella on a piece of scrap cardstock. Next I colored the umbrellas on the card panel with grey copic markers and used shades of coral and pink for the extra umbrella. I put the masks back on top of the umbrellas and stamped the rain stamp once on a piece of scrap paper and then across the card panel which resulted in a lighter ink color. The stamp overlaps in areas which creates an interesting dimension.

Next I stamped the sentiment onto white cardstock and trimmed it down to a fishtail banner. I used foam mounting tape to adhere the sentiment to the top of the card and the coral umbrella over the grey umbrellas. To finish the card I added a coating of wink of stella clear sparkle to the umbrella and added a thin layer of glossy accents. So this card used just three stamps from the February My Monthly Hero kit and one of the optional add-ons…I can’t wait to show you the rest of the stamps AND dies from this collection! They’re definite must-haves! ;)
