I learned through Hero Arts Facebook Page that today is Chocolate Mint Day....Didn't know there was such a thing. LOL They are hosting a mini challenge to create something with the colors chocolate and mint. Here is what I came up with...
I love Andes Mints. They are so yummy! I filled up a plastic container (from Stampendous) with them and finished it off with some paper, bow, and a sentiment. I also created a card to go with the color scheme. So fun! Happy Chocolate Mint Day to all of you! :)
Next up I am sharing a card set I made using some of my favorite Hero stamps....
It was hard to photograph them all so here is a close up of one of them....
I also have been working on these....
more shrinky dinks! Look for them in my etsy shop soon! Aren't they fun? Okay, now for the stuff you've been waiting for...the prizes!

I'd like to see a video on watercoloring with distress inks or tying ribbon on a card. I don't see where to follow you on your blog. Maybe it's not showing up. I already have you added to my Google Reader, but I'll try looking for the proper way to become a follower. THanks for the opportunity to win goodies!
Heather, I follow your blog on Google Reader. I'd love to see a video on making Shrinky Dinks.
I love the chocolatey minty goodness of the top card! So fun! And seriously LOVE the card set! I do think those flowers are SO "Carrie"!! Can't wait to see what you do with the shrinky dinks!
those shrinky dinks are too cute! How about a video on coloring them in or using them on a card?
Hi Heather,

Thank you so much - Lucille :)
Hi, Heather,
I too would like to see a video on the shrinky dinks, have not seen that one yet, remember them from my younger days, but that was a longggggg time ago, and I do not remember how it was done. That flower is so pretty, I just got that stamp and can't wait to play with it!!

Hello, Heather!

Thank You! Nancy
I agree with Cathy. A video on coloring the shrinky dinks would be great!

I always need new ideas on how to colour images. I seem to be okay at stamping them but hopeless at colouring them.
Oh, and I subscribe to your blog via Bloglines so I never miss a post! :)
I'm on the shrinky-dinks bandwagon for a video! What section of the craft store do I find them?
Hi Heather, I would like to see the Shrinky Dinks video on your blog, if possible with color in it. Your goodies seem so much fun...let me be part of it. Thanks.I will post my card by tonight.
Love your chocolate minty card! I would love to see a video about the shrinky dinks-I haven't done that since I was a young girl!

Shrinky Dinks for me, too. I tried them a long time ago and got nowhere with them, but your are adorable!

I would love to see a video of coloring or inking. I am not so good at those things. I need some tips. I love stamping, but my coloring seems to ruin things, so I go back to paper piecing. I LOVE Distress inks, but am afraid I don't REALLY know how to use them. Also, any special tips for inking chipboard in your CUTE layout from You Color My World? Oh, and I am a follower now . . . :) Thanks for all the fun!
Hello- so glad I found your account today. I have Copic markers and would love more tutorials via video on how you use them with stamping. I also just signed up to be a follower of your blog. I decided to play with my HA flower stamps and Copics this afternoon from your creations, here is the result. http://www.flickr.com/photos/47331723@N02/?saved=1
