Good afternoon! Today is the release day for the Hero Arts November 2016 My Monthly Hero and I am so honored and excited to be celebrating the release with the Hero Arts Creative team and other special guests! You should have arrived from Heather but if not, you can head to the Hero Arts Blog to start at the beginning! The November kit is now available for purchase at Hero Arts and once they’re sold out, they’re gone for good so make sure to head over and shop soon!
The kit contains:

- White Puff embossing powder

- Ornament hooks and more!
- DC200 Little Messages Stamp & Cut
- DC201 Number It Stamp & Cut

This ornament die is so clever! I had a lot of fun using it with the accompanying stamps and dies! And I made a few cards using the stamps! 😉 Don’t forget to check out the bottom of my post for details on how to win a kit! Here’s what I created:
The die is perfect for hiding little candy treats or gifts for the holiday!
And I love how you can customize the look of the box with the stamps and dies! On my second box I used the dies on each triangular panel and lined it with a second vellum box for a more frosted look.
Finally I used the snowflake stamp to make two Christmas cards, a CAS design and a peaceful snowy evening scene!
Love LOVE the versatility of this kit!
You will have endless options for gift holders, tags, and cards with this kit!

Your little boxes are so pretty! I like the vellum embossed one and I like that you lined a box with vellum. The cards are pretty too!
WONDERFUL!
Love your treat box and ornament! Both your cards are lovely – the second one is especially stunning!
I love your Christmas tree card!
I really like the white trees stamped on the navy background.
I’ve never seen this done before. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work with us! Hoping to win!
Oh my gosh everything you made is a-ma-zing! I love how you did the trees with the snowflakes, they are just so pretty. I hope I win this set because I can do what you did with that card. All the positions you did with the tree are great! I love all the shades of blue on your white card. I also love the dark blue card with the white trees and the snow in front of it. Those cute little treat boxes, especially the one that looks embossed, are something I can’t wait to make. Great job!
I love your frosty colours.. and the treat boxes are just amazing:)
Really elegant projects. I especially love the wintery colors.
Beautiful!
I love how you made the triangle stamps look like frosted Christmas trees, so pretty!
So Pretty! Really liked your use of blue tones.
That snowflake stamp is so delicate. And with the silver? Perfection.
The silver on the vellum looks so beautiful and the cards are so elegant. I love that stamp pattern!
You made those cute little boxes look so elegant and beautiful – love your creativity!
I really like your projects!
i really liked how you used the triangle shapes as trees on snowy hillsides.
I just love this kit! Your projects turned out lovely!
Like many former comments I also love the shades of blue that you used. Also inspired by the distressed snow banks on the card-will definitely have to try that-it softens the snow!!
