Guest Designer for Hero Arts Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero March 2023 Challenge - Rainbow

Happy Fri-yay everyone!  I’m excited to be guest designing this month at Hero Arts (HA) Stay Crafty with A Blog Named Hero (ABNH) for their March RAINBOW challenge. 


I won the Peonies Bunch bundle in an Instagram (IG) giveaway last year (I think 🤔, or maybe it was before then 🤷🏻‍♀️) and finally inked it up to create a colourful birthday card for a crafty friend whose birthday was earlier this week. 


I don’t have the coordinating stencils for this set, but I don’t mind since I love to colour.  The image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and coloured with my favourite Copic Sketch markers in rainbow colours. 

Copic markers used:
pinks - RV00, RV02, RV04, RV17 
reds - R02, R14, R27, R46 
oranges - Y17, YR04, YR09 
yellows - Y11, Y15, Y19, V01
aquas - BG10, BG01, BG05 
blues - B00, B12, FB2, B28 
purples - V01, V04, V17 
greens - YG01, YG06, YG09, G09
shadow - 0, C0, C1, C2


Colouring took up the bulk of the card, so once it was done, the card came together quite quickly and easily.  For some texture, splattered with diluted white gouache paint.  The sentiment from Let’s Celebrate was heat embossed with white embossing powder on black cardstock.  Adhered the panel to a white card base, then added clear shimmer on the flowers and a few clear sequins for some sparkle to finish. 


HA is generously giving away two $50 gift cards to their online shop.  One winner will be randomly selected and the other will be chosen by the design team.  Everyone has a chance to win!  Details and where to link up can be found HERE.  Hope to see you in the gallery.  

I want to thank HA and ABNH for the GD opportunity.  HA products used for the card are linked below.   Thank you for stopping by.
