May My Monthly Hero Countdown + Giveaway: Day 1

Hello and welcome to the May My Monthly Hero countdown! The new May Classic and Premium kits, along with lots of wonderful add-ons, will launch on Monday, May 1 at 1pm Eastern/10 am Pacific. Don't miss a chance to win a kit before you can buy one – simply comment on this post and you're entered into the random drawing!

Now let the good times roll and check out the first four peeks from our Creative Team below! We invite you to visit each of their blogs (links are below the photos) for more details on their fabulous cards.

You may have noticed that some of the cards feature Premium kit elements, while others stick to the Classic kit. To make it easy for you to distinguish between the two, we've included a gold badge on any project that uses at least one Premium element. Keep an eye out this weekend to see more of the delightful May MMH creations the Creative Team has in store for you!

WIN A KIT BEFORE YOU CAN BUY IT: Just leave a comment on this (and every) Countdown to Creativity post. We’ll randomly draw one lucky winner from comments left across all countdown posts on the Hero Arts blog. The winner will be announced first thing Monday morning, May 1, before the kit launches at 10am Pacific. The more you comment, the more chances to win. Good luck!

Thanks so much for stopping by,

Though I enjoy the different effects on all three cards, I happen to love bright colors, so Mindy Eggen’s is my favorite. That splash of color with the balloons just sets it off.

Trudy A. Neumann,

Super cute! Love the bicycle 🚲

Kimberly Cook,

Love Hero Arts have been buying stamps starting with wood mounted. Still have them and especially bought the background building stuff.
