Hey there Arties!! I’m happy you have stopped by for the release day blog hop and video for the Hero Arts My Monthly Hero October 2022!
Winter has come, direct from the North Pole! The October My Monthly Kit features a darling 6” x 8” stamp set with everything you need to build a magical scene, right down to Santa's sleigh. The coordinating dies cut out everything in the stamp set, including the messages. There's a cling background stamp for adding falling snow, and we've included two types of white ink to allow you to experiment with different techniques! The kit is rounded out with some gorgeous papers.
