May My Monthly Hero Release and Blog Hop

Hello crafty friends!! The May My Monthly Hero release is now available!! This month’s kit is a colorer’s dream!! The coral reef theme of this kit, with all the tropical fish and different types of coral is such fun to color.

I decided to watercolor these beautiful images with several Hero Arts Reactive Inks. I first stamped all my images in INTENS-ified Black Ink onto Bristol Smooth cardstock. I then watercolored the images with Reactive Inks. When I finished coloring all the images I then die cut them out with the matching dies.

Next, I ink blended the front of a slimline white card base with Splash and Blue Hawaii Reactive Ink. I then placed the new Water Flow Slimline Stencil over the card front and ink blended again with Splash and Blue Hawaii inks.

Next, I adhered my images to my card front with foam adhesive. Lastly, I finished my card by stamping a sentiment in INTESN-ified Black Ink.

  1. The colors are bright and perfect…. awesome kit! The background water flowing by is beautiful !

  2. Love your card….all of it…but my favorite part is the background water you created! Stencil or stamp?

  3. Such a beautiful, bright card. Your watercoloring is lovely and the background is gorgeous.

  4. Love this card, Channin!! I especially love the effect of the Water Flow Slimline Stencil!! I did not pick that up and put it in my cart before, but now I am rethinking. I also love the colors you used on fish and coral.

  5. Beautiful cards! I love the depth you’ve created. I feel like I’m at the aquarium!

  6. Wow, I love your card. All the bright colors were great and I loved how you ink blended over your first blend. That sold it for me, I wouldn’t have thought of that. Thank you.
