Hero Arts Holiday Stamp Along - Day 2

Hi all - back with another quick share of today's card from Day 2 of the Hero Arts Holiday Stamp Along, plus a few extras. I enjoyed the weekend soooo much! *Warning - photo heavy post ahead!

Last night during the bonus session with Jenn Shurkus (using a digi download), I made a couple of cards using extra stuff from Jennifer McGuire's class and a stamped ornament. My printer is down so I couldn't do Jenn's cards but I watched the LIVE while I was doing my own thing. I can rewatch her amazing Copic coloring once I'm able to print the digis. 

Supplies: Paper - Neenah white; Paper Studio Holiday;

Hero Arts glitter paper (white & gold)

Dies - Hero Arts Holly Berries Stamp & Cut XL

Foil Plate - Hero Arts Ornament Border (used for embossing)

Stamps - Hero Arts Holiday Borders and Icons (sentiment on right),

Snowflake Messages (sentiment on left),

& Winter Sparkle (retired)

Hero Arts Holiday Stamp Along - Day One

Hi all - thought I'd do a quick share of today's card from the Hero Arts Holiday Stamp Along. So much fun!!! We're having a dinner break then there's a bonus session tonight with Jenn Shurkus using a digi download to benefit Hurrican Ian relief. I bought the digi but don't have a working printer right now. Will have to find something else to create :)

Meanwhile, here are today's 5 cards plus an extra I did while foiling the ornament plate (the blue card bottom center). *Warning - photo heavy post ahead!

Getting late here so sorry for bad lighting on the group photo! Here's a closer look at each, except the twofer. I will update at some point with supplies...

Class one with Daniel West - poinsettias on black - love!

Class two with Mindy Eggen - foiling - fabulous!

Class three with Jessica Frost-Ballas - darling bunny & fox!

Class four with Jennifer McGuire (yes, she was live & did amazing!!) - gorgeous ornament!

The vellum ornament swings & here's what's under (sorry - photo while still sitting in my MISTI):

Class 5 with Nichol Spor - gorgeous pair of ornaments (forgot to put my bow on the big one...).

Oh, and last night Libby Hickson from Hero Arts had an informal tag session as a kick-off. I made this tag:

 

I'm adding my foiled ornament card to Darnell's November NBUS Challenge since my foil plate is new, and also to Stay Crafty with a Blog Named Hero's October Challenge Merry Everything. They only allow one card per post so I'll just do the one (could upload them all to my Flickr account and share from there but no...). These cards, or a similar version, will go to the HeroFest Holiday Cheer Card Drive.

I'll be back doing the Stamp Along tomorrow and will try to post those cards afterwards.

Thanks for hanging in there for this long post! Happy crafting!!
