Happy HeroWeen - Day 2!

 I'm sure you saw a huge variety of adorable Halloween cards yesterday with the HeroWeen reveal! Instagram was filled with inspiration for Day 1's die set. Today, I'm happy to share my Day 2 card...

The Day 2 surprise was a mini stamp set filled with fun Halloween phrases. I paired my Day 1 bat, cat, and pumpkin with the "You're Spooktacular" sentiment from Day 2.

I turned the bat into a silly stumpy cat by not including the bat ears and I added the cat tail. I think he looks very cute and silly inside the pumpkin bucket!

The oldies that I used on this card include the incredible Halloween Words Stencil, brushed with Taffy Ink, the spider webs from the Haunted Romance Dies (a Halloween must have), and my go-to Postage Infinity Dies. I also added some black star sequins (included in HeroWeen box) with some Black Splatter.

Thank you for stopping by. Enjoy the Day 2 inspiration! Some links are affiliates at no additional cost to you. I really appreciate your support!

Woodblock Inspired Spookiness

 Some of the stamps in the September 2026 My Monthly Hero kits immediately reminded me of classic woodblock prints. My parents have a couple woodblocks prints hanging in my childhood home, so they hold a special place in my arty heart! 

I created this spooky card with those classic black and white wood prints in mind...

I used the solid stamps the most, then cut a couple of the pumpkins that I left white. I cut one of my essential dies, the Woodblock Frames, and then did very light splatters of Black Acrylic paint.

I hope you like my woodblock print inspired spooky season card!

Harvest Scarecrow

 I am just so happy that autumn crafting is here! Both spooky season and general autumnal cards are always a fun switch from the summer.

Today I'm sharing a card using the September Stitching Die of the Month called Scarecrow Harvest.

I love adding little touches of teal or light blue in my autumn color schemes. All of the cardstock used here is from the ColorWheel collection.

For the background, I used the lovely embossing folder called Falling Leaves on white cardstock. The sentiment comes from the new Autumn Greetings stamp set.

Thanks for stopping by and happy September!

Happy STAMPtember!! Time to Party!

 Happy STAMPtember! This big month-long event from Simon Says Stamp is kicking off with a party! I'm so glad you stopped here to celebrate! To find all the details, visit the Simon Says Stamp blog. 

Plus... I might just have a goody to share with you at the end of this post 😉

I have two cards to share using the absolutely beautiful stamp set called Harvest Blessings. 

I paired this card with the lovely Infinity Arches die set, some Carrot cardstock, and beautiful Concord and 9th ink pads.

My second card using Harvest Blessings has a more traditional color scheme to it, and I used a lot more of the sweet little leaf stamps. This is such a beautiful stamp set and definitely a good addition to your autumn stash!

And now, I have a little bonus to share....

My Monthly Hero - Wicked Good!

 It's the best day of the month but somehow even BETTER! Because this month's My Monthly Hero kit is Halloween themed!!!! Spooky season has arrived! 

I will say, the My Monthly Super Hero kits are really blowing me away. You get so many extra goodies that all work so well together... definitely a great bang for your buck!

My first card uses a combination of a few different items in the kit. The super cute cauldron shaker die set is clearly the focal point of the card. The sweet little crow and frog are from the Miss Witch die set.

The witches broom is from the If the Broom Fits die set, and lastly, the "eek" sentiment is from the Tis Near Halloween stamp set. Mixing and matching is so fun with these kits... this is why getting the Super Hero kit is so great! All cardstock used is from the ColorWheel collection. 

For my second card, I really wanted to highlight the cute stamp set called Spooky Brew. I love die cutting, but I love coloring even more! I was excited to have a stamp set that gave me the excuse to pull out my Copic markers. 

I hope you can grab the kit to get yourself into the spooky season! The popularity of these kits has gotten so big that Hero Arts now has a "Save Your Spot" program. Click the subscription link to read more about how this new program works!

By the way... have you grabbed your HeroWeen box yet?! You won't want to miss out!
