Birthday Beer // Hero Arts

Hello everyone! Today I'm participating in the December My Monthly Hero blog hop and sharing a fun masculine card.

For every monthly kit, there's always one particular stamp/die/etc that stands out to me, and for this kit, it was the beer image for the add-on stamp set, Cocktail Party Stamp and Cut! I just knew I had to use it to make a birthday card for my brother (who's birthday is in September...lol)


I kept things simple by heat embossing the beer in white, and doing some quick watercoloring. The card was topped off with a sentiment die cut from the main kit dies, and a sentiment heat embossed from the add-on stamp set, Birthday Celebration.


Oila! A quick and easy masculine card!

THE KIT


The kit contains:
► A 4"x6" clear stamp set
► A set of 8 coordinating Frame Cuts dies that match the stamp set
► Two Fancy word dies - "cheers" and "party"
► A set of Paper Layering dies for adding a sunburst or sparkler effect
► Fun new gold glitter embossing powder
► Custom washi tape designed for the kit
► A gold Uni-ball Gel Pen
► 4 half sheets of gold foil cardstock
► 2 half sheets of each metallic cardstock: purple, pink, dark blue and antique gold

The kit value is $65, an amazing deal at $34.99.

There are also some amazing add-on stamps and dies, so be sure to check out the Hero Arts blog for information on that.
