The best day of the month has arrived! The My Monthly Hero kit this month speaks to me because it is all citrus themed! 🍋 I grew up with orange trees in my yard and we would make gallons and gallons of orange juice every year, so I always love when citrus is "on trend" in the crafty world.
There are so many elements of this kit that are "must haves"... this border die is absolutely one of them! I made a card with an orange theme and another one with a lemon theme.
This is my lemon version! I actually attempted to turn this one into a shaker card, but I didn't like the end result. However, the glitter from the failed shaker didn't want to let go, and I actually like the end result of random glitter bits.
The border die is exclusive to the My Monthly Super Hero kit, as is the stamp set that features those big bold sentiments. It is definitely worth the upgrade!
How cute is this darling vespa?! This is the second "must have" from this kit. The best part is that the die will fill an entire card front, so less brain use is needed for this one! 😁
How cute is this stamp set?! It is giving me old school Hero Arts vibes in the best way. I paired these sweet images with the beautiful background stamp so put this scene together. All images were colored with my
Copic Markers.
Ok now this card showcases Must Have #3!!!
A HERO ARTS EMBOSSING FOLDER!!!!!!! This is seriously a BIG DEAL and I freaked out when I opened this kit. Embossing folders are definitely trending back in style, and I am so here for it!
The card above and the card below both use the same lemon shaker dies. I just only turned one of them into an actual shaker.
The
MMH kit includes some dies that cut mini citrus bits, so they are perfect for the shaker element. For the background, I used the
Wavy Line Die Plate with various shades of light blue cardstock.
Did I already mention the EMBOSSING FOLDER?!!!! This little lemon basket is actually part of the vespa die set. It was so sweet on its own that I wanted it to have its very own card.
By the way, did you know there was an EMBOSSING FOLDER included in this kit?! For my final card today, I inked up the inside of the folder with
Green Apple and then ran it through my machine with Rainforest cardstock. This card is also paired with another favorite die in my stash,
Wood Frame Infinity Dies.
