I’m so excited to be a part of the Hero Arts Holiday 2024 Catalog blog hop and giveaway! I’ve got two cards to share today that feature multiple products from the new Holiday Catalog. Read to the end for giveaway information and the list of designers in the hop.

1. Place Color Layering Poinsettia Pattern Stencils stencil 1 over a panel of Deluxe Smooth White Cardstock and add Cherry Core Ink. I added a small bit of shading with the Cranberry Core Ink for the tiny flowers and berries.

2. Switch to stencil 2 and add Cranberry Core Ink.

3. For stencil 3 add Fresh Lawn Core Ink.

4. Switch to stencil 4 and add Pine Core Ink to the leaf layers and Periwinkle Core Ink to the rest of the stencil.

5. Stamp the Festive Pattern Bold Prints over the stenciled panel using Contour Ink.

6. Stamp sentiments from Joyful Christmas Messages using Periwinkle Core Ink the cut out with coordinating die and the small one into a strip. Adhere to panel.

7. Die cut the largest Scalloped Rectangles Infinity Die along with a Rectangle Infinity Die to create a frame. Adhere over stenciled panel.

8. Add panel to an A2 card base cut slightly smaller so it’s not visible behind scalloped edges. Adhere Hero Hues Enamels Dots from Blues and Sunset.
