Good morning! We’re kicking off the countdown to the Hero Arts February My Monthly Hero kit today and I’m sharing a card using the new kit!
There’s a fun watercolor dot card included in the kit that I used to paint the background for this dreamy fantastical card! I pressed an embossing & watermark ink over the entire dried panel and then heat-embossed it with sparkle embossing powder. I fussy cut the fun door scene and colored it with copic markers before adding it to my sunrise background!
And that’s it for me! Head over to the Hero Arts blog for more inspiration using the February My Monthly Hero kit all weekend long!! And then I’ll be back Monday with the full kit reveal!!
For a chance to 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 all the comments left across all countdown posts. The winner will be announced first thing Monday morning, February 7th, before the kit launches at 10am Pacific. The more you comment, the more chances to win!
Thanks so much for visiting and enjoy the rest of your weekend!!

Beautiful card. Thanks for sharing.
Lovely design. tfs-stay well.
Your sparkly background is great.
I am so intrigued by the sneak peeks about this surreal looking kit. Love stamps with buildings, doors, windows etc. Your card is exceptional Jess & your remained true to your blog heading, All the Sparkle. Thank you for the tip of putting your embossing pad over the background & adding the powder. I wouldn’t have thought of that, but it makes a huge difference.
Love how you embossed the entire card – will have to try that!! Love you color choices.
So pretty and unique! I love the sparkly background.
This is gorgeous, I can’t wait to see what the full kit will be
I love your color choices and can’t wait to see all the colors Hero Arts supplies in the kit! Beautiful work!
Your background is fabulous. I’m going to experiment with your technique.
Beautiful card. Love the coloring and all of the shimmer.
Your background is so fun!
It looks like Hero Arts Knocked it out the park again!! I can’t wait to get my hand on this kit!
Love the sparkly sunrise background and chunky sparkles on the clouds!
Quite intrigued by February kit and the watercolor dots.Love what Jessica did with the shimmery background, and the the door.
Another beautiful background. Looking forward to this kit
This really is a dreamy card in so many ways. Beautiful!
Yes the fantasy dreamy feel to the card is wonderful. I really like the background and the sentiment is great, too. Am already tempted to buy the kit because of the sentiment stamps! Then I need to learn how to make those beautiful backgrounds!
I see doors is the theme this month and sparkles too. Thanks for sharing.
Beautifully Simple! What glitter/sprinkle did you use on the clouds?
I really love the door in the clouds! Awesome card!
Amazing card
That sentiment really speaks to this Mother & Daughter team.
Jess, did you create the sunrise colors on the background?
Yes! I used the included watercolor dot card to create a light watercolor wash!
Looks like a fun set…your card is lovely!
lovely card am looking forward to the kit
This would be perfect for the small quilts 12 x 12 that I make using decorative stamps and die cuts! Can’t wait for the kit! Thanks for your inspiration! Our first grandchild will be arriving in April 2022 and this would be so special to make as a baby gift. Total inspiration!
