This post today is just for the sheer joy of card making for special people. I made these cards for the new Hero Arts Hostesses that I admire so much. You may ask what is a Hero Hostess well I think of it as card designers for Hero Arts Flickr group and they are a very creative bunch with lots of inspiration and it’s a big honor to be selected. (There are six women) Most of the papers are from Hero Arts and so is the inks and stamps.I dotted all of the aprons with a copic colorless blender and more Glossy Accents on the circle. Tomorrow I’ll be back a sketch from Card Patterns….I’m the guest designer…woo hoo…. so I hope you will play along. Off to watch the Olympics with my hubby….I’m obsessed …are you watching too? See you tomorrow. Hugs,Kathy

P.S. Each “Hostess” had a different apron color so I did my best to duplicate that.
