As I was changing out an empty box of tissues, I noticed the colors on the empty one and decided to snip out one of the sides to use for inspiration. These are colors I certainly would never have come up with on my own!

Recently Jennifer McGuire showed us how to hinge a simple stencil in order to have white elements against a colored inked background. I couldn't wait to try this!

July Spellbinders Club Kits: Mugs, Mittens, and Sweater Hugs!
The Spellbinders Club Kits for July are now available for new subscribers! This month's theme is Mugs, Mittens, and Sweater Hugs.
The small dies of the month are called Cocoa Greetings, and consist of 18 dies to make some cute mugs. To begin this month, I made up 3 mugs which you will see being used today and in the next few days with various backgrounds. I thought I'd show you them all together first.

Butterfly Hugs
Happy 4th of July to my stateside friends - hope your day is a fun one!
I've been wanting to revisit a postal collage set of stencils that I got earlier this year, and use it with the other postage collage goodies I already own. Butterflies are certainly a July thing, so today is the day!

July Hero Studio - Road Trip!
The Hero Arts Studio goodies for July have been released, and I have 3 cards to share with you today. The collection is called Road Trip.
The Studio Stencils are 4 pieces, 3 for the lettering. I chose a colorway of teal, blue, and purple.
You can subscribe anytime and cancel hassle-free.
Currently the Studio includes 5 separate kits: a Card Kit, Layering Stencils, Fancy Dies, a Cling stamp, and a Clear Set of Stamps and matching Dies. You can also get The Whole Studio, which includes all of the kits at a discount, plus a bonus item each month.
A really nice bonus is that, once you subscribe to any of the kits, you also will get free shipping on all orders that you make at Hero Arts between the 1st and 5th of each month!
