I shared this card using the April My Monthly Hero kit on my blog this weekend:
And today, I’m sharing a card using the rest of that pretty stenciled panel with the April 2022 My Monthly Hero kit!
I started by stamping the background stamp onto a panel of Peony cardstock with contour ink using my MISTI. I left the stamp on the lid of my MISTI so that I’d be able to restamp and heat-emboss later. Then I used the kit stencils to stencil the panel. I used Bubble Gum, Raspberry Jam, and Navy ink for my panel. I love gold, navy, and pink together! I let the ink dry and then place the panel back inside my MISTI. I inked the stamp with Embossing & Watermark ink and then heat-embossed it with Gold Glitter Embossing Powder. I trimmed it down to an A2 panel and used the leftover sliver on my countdown card!
I stamped the sentiment from the kit on Nautical cardstock and heat-embossed it with the same Gold Glitter Embossing Powder. Then I die-cut the sentiment from gold glitter cardstock and the outline layer from Nautical cardstock. I adhered the layers together and then added my sentiment with liquid glue to finish the card!
And I used one of the add-ons with the kit to create one more card!
I stamped the beautiful kit background stamp onto a panel of Sand cardstock with Contour ink and trimmed it down to an A2 panel. Then I stamped and colored the cats and hearts from the Mother and Father Animals set with copic markers before die-cutting them with the coordinating frame cuts.
I stamped a sentiment onto the background panel and then die-cut a heart from vellum. I adhered the heart to the background panel and then added my colored images on top to finish the card!
And that’s it for me! I just love this entire kit…there are so many fun ways to use these gorgeous florals!! Head over and pick up your April My Monthly Hero kit and add-ons today before it sells out!

I loved all your cards, but the navy with the gold embossing was outstanding.
spilor says
Love all of these. Your floral gold-embossed card is a perfect combo of colors. I also like how you used it w/ the navy-only gold-embossed card to make that gorgeous card divided by a strip of gold. Finally, the critter card is adorable! I should have guessed that being the animal lover that you are, we’d see a card or two from that HA set! TFS!!!
