2021 Summer Catalog Sneak Peek #2 + Giveaway

Hello and welcome back to our Summer Catalog sneak peek extravaganza. Click here if you missed the first peek yesterday and read on for another chance to win a gift card!

Let's shift gears from stamps to dies. How about a look at some fantastic new dies that our Creative Team has fallen in love with? Our Looking Glass Die collection is growing and today we're happy to introduce you to two of five beautiful new additions to the line!

At left we have Looking Glass Paris (DI885), a 3-piece die set that will bring the beauty and magic of the City of Lights to your projects. Magnifique!

Looking Glass Rain & Clouds (DI887), shown at right, also includes 3 dies and will allow you to build cloudscapes and rainy scenes. The sky's the limit when it comes to the layering possibilities with these.

We didn't stop there. When Thursday rolls around and the Summer Catalog is revealed in full, you'll also find Windmill Tulips, Canyon Lands, and more!

In case you missed the debut of the Looking Glass Die collection earlier this month, you can check out our existing Lighthouse and Underwater Reef. The dies measure 2.25" wide and are designed for cutting windows, creating backgrounds and building layered scenes. They can be used individually, interchangeably, or layered for maximum versatility. Use with our Alignment Tool Stencils for easy placement.

GIVEAWAY: Leave a comment on this post (one per person) and we will randomly select a winner from the comments to receive a $20 gift certificate to the Hero Arts Online Store! Please comment by Friday, May 21 at 11:59pm PT.

Look for our 2021 Summer Catalog products at your favorite retailers and in the Hero Arts shop on May 20.

We look forward to sharing our final sneak peek with you tomorrow. See you then!
