HEY FRIENDS! Quick post today. You may have noticed that until yesterday, I hadn’t posted for a week or so. My husband tested positive for Covid last Sunday and I did as well on Wednesday. We’re both doing OK. The symptoms have been relatively mild — mostly like an annoying cold — but I have been sleeping a lot. I thought that with the quiet days, I’d complete more projects, but I just didn’t feel like crafting. So I took it as a sign that I needed to recharge my batteries for a few days and pretty much stayed out of the craft room.
So today I’m a little late in posting, but I have a couple of cards to show you that feature the Wishing You Tree stamp set from Hero Arts. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.
Card 1

Size: 4.25″ x 5.5″
Featuring:
- Wishing You Tree by Hero Arts [ SBC | SSS ]
- Presents Background by Hero Arts [ SBC | SSS ]
- Diagonal Stitched Rectangle Set by Pinkfresh Studio [ SBC | SSS ]
- Hero Arts Intense Black Ink [ SBC | SSS ]
- Copic coloring (see marker list below)
- Additional supplies listed in the thumbnails below.
The image from the Wishing You Tree set was stamped on Hammermill Smooth cardstock with Hero Arts Intense Black Ink. Once the image was colored, I cut it out with the coordinating die that was part of the bundle. For the background, I cut a piece of white cardstock using the largest die in the Diagonal Stitched Rectangle Set by Pinkfresh Studio. Next, I cut a piece of Wild Cherry Cardstock from My Favorite Things to 4.25″ x 4.5″ and stamped it with the Presents Background by Hero Arts using Versamark Ink. I covered the image with clear embossing powder and heat set it. I trimmed the panel to 3.75″ x 5″ and then cut it on the diagonal. The layers were assembled as shown and one of the sentiments was stamped in the upper right corner with Versafine Ink in Nocturne.

The images from the Wishing You Tree set were stamped on Hammermill Smooth cardstock with Hero Arts Intense Black Ink. Once the image was colored, I trimmed the panel as well as another piece of white cardstock with the smallest dies in the Folk Edge Rectangles Die Set by PinkFresh Studio. I added a piece of design paper to the cardbase and assembled the layers as shown. Simple design that was simple to color!
