Just Saying Hello... And a Giveaway!


Hi, everyone! Hope you're having a great day... I just wanted to pop in and share a card I created using some neglected Hero Arts stamps from my collection. :)

I don't know about you, but heat embossing is one of my all-time favorite techniques... There's just something about watching the powder melt into a gloss that fascinates me.  I could emboss all. day. long.  LOL!

Those of you that I'm friends with on Facebook are probably aware of my struggles with cleaning up my craft room.  Somehow I spend hours in there (moving around piles), but yet, it still looks like a disaster.  I just have too much stuff! So... My loss will be your gain! :) I have an extra Round & Round set from Papertrey Ink (new/unopened) that I'm offering up today... If you'd like to be entered to win, all you need to do is just leave a comment on this post by midnight on Sunday, November 18th.  The winner will be chosen by Random.org and posted on Monday, November 19th.

Have a great one!

Supplies:
Stamps - Hero Arts
Paper - Aqua Mist, Summer Sunrise, Vintage Cream, Orange Zest
Ink - Versamark, Dark Chocolate
Miscellaneous - Aqua Rhinestones, Clear Embossing Powder, New Leaf Grosgrain Ribbon, Pop Dots

  2. Ah, craft room cleaning. Now there's a chore! That's what I do when my mojo takes a vacation, and it usually helps. There is something magical about watching embossing powder melt - that's what got me hooked on stamping and I am still fascinated with it.

  3. Your card is beautiful. ;-) I love the colors, and the embossing is fantastic. I love heat embossing, too - but I'm terrible at it!

    I have the same problem with my craft room. Good luck in your organizational efforts! ;-)
