September My Monthly Hero Countdown: Idea #8 + Giveaway

MMH Countdown to Creativity

So are you ready for tomorrow's launch of our September My Monthly Hero kit? Are you loving it as much as we are? We cannot wait to reveal the full kit to you tomorrow, September 6th at 1pm eastern - it's a beauty! Sally is here to share even more ideas for using this fun kit!

I love how fun and easy it is to build layered wreaths with this month's kit! For this one, I used the optional Branch Wreath Fancy Die as the base, and die cut the little leaves included in the kit. Using the hero_product_link sku="DI198" text="Rectangle Infinity Dies"] makes rectangular layers easy peasy!

For something a little different, I built this wreath off the side of the card. Just trim the excess to make a clean edge.

Another idea for building a fall wreath with the kit. The gold bow gives it an extra little pop!

For this one, I potted my branches in fall colors. It's fun to make a different look with the kit's dies! I used the bow from the Christmas add-on, but you could also add ribbon. I made the shiny pot with the metallic copper paper included in the kit.

And finally, a simple wheat bundle tied with cord for a small gift enclosure or mini card. I used a gold pen to add the dots.
