Hero Arts Monthly Challenge - try something new

Hello everybody, hope you are all well! The weather has stabilized itself, although cold, the sun shines into the home in the afternoon, and that gives a lovely feeling.



I wanted to share these Hybrid cards which are for the Monthly challenge over at Hero Arts, to try something new.
I won a digital prize in December during a 24 hour scramble and Tami sent me the Botanical Tulips set which I printed, cut out and painted with distress inks, before I attached them to the Post Tag stamp which is one of Hero Art's 2013 releases. I placed the tag on the vertical left fold of cardstock and cut around it making these into cards.

I stamped the Tag onto Patterned paper. Stamped some leaves around the tag, direct to paper with bundled sage distress ink. Stamped the Friends definition. Printed the digital Tulip, painted with distress inks and cut out, adhered to tag. Added a couple of gems and some pink baker's twine before I placed it onto the fold of some cardstock and cut it out.

I did the same with this tag as the one above. Just cut out some digital butterflies which were printed on PP.

This stamp has reignited my inspiration.

Have a creative day!
Jacqueline

  14. These are not cards; this is ART. I am impressed by the way you create and use your stamps. These tagcards/pieces of art are lovely to look at. Unique and made with love. That shows off. In my - humble- opinion...one of the best projects you made.

  15. These are totally beautiful Jacqueline! Wow, you are simply amazing, really, I love what you do! (Yes, we are coming to the US for 3 weeks- 2 weeks of driving down the California Coast and then a few days in New Orleans for Michael's work and a few days in Houston also for work and of course to see Lisa!). We hope to go to Italy in July!
