Hi, Friends!
The September 2019 My Monthly Hero Kit is here! The kit features a new Peek-a-Boo doors die and versatile stamps to create a Halloween-themed card or friendship-themed card. Be sure to check out the Full Collection to see the add-on sets for this month!

Instead of using the peek-a-boo die for today’s card or creating a Halloween them, I decided I wanted my card to look more like a big shelf of collectables.

I stamped my shelf and the elements I wanted on my shelf and colored them with Copic markers (C1, C4, Y13, Y26, G24, YG67, V04, G03, E41, E55, B000, B21, BG15, V01, R00, RV11, R85, R21, RV25). I don’t know if you’ve seen that galvanized pipes are becoming quite the trend. We recently made curtain rods out of these pipes and t-connectors (diy instead of buying them from Pottery Barn for hundreds of dollars).

To create a really soft background, I colored each of the openings with a soft pink (R0000, R000). Then for the sentiment, I partially stamped a sentiment for the “you are a” portion, then die-cut 4 layers of the word “treasure” (3 layers in white and 1 layer in gold).
I hope you liked my interpretation for this stamp!

For each September kit sold, $1 will be donated to help those impacted by the devastation and displacement caused by Hurricane Dorian.

Sweet card. Love some of the unusual items you placed on you “shelves”. I am loving this kit and the fact that the main die can look like an old fashioned file cabinet or a set of shelves. And all the neat items one can stamp for either. This set appears to be so versatile. I can hardly wait to start playing. Thanks for sharing!
