Happy July everyone!!! It’s a new month so that means a NEW CHALLENGE!!!! Are you ready?

You can check out our monthly calendar and full challenge details HERE. As always, we have fourteen $50 Hero Arts shopping sprees up for grabs! Here are the themes and techniques for this month’s challenge:

* Summertime - Summer is upon us! What says Summer to you? It is a certain color? Perhaps flowers or butterflies? Maybe sweet treats like watermelon, lemonade, or ice cream? Or how about vacations and travel? Let the season inspire your stamping!

* Parties - Everyone loves a party and this is such a great time of year for all sorts of gatherings — backyard BBQs, pool parties, Independence Day celebrations, and more. We’d love to see your stamped invitations, decorations, favors, etc. And of course birthday party ideas are always in season too!

* Digital Die Cuts and Printables - Check out my July technique article here for one idea! Digital projects can be of ANY theme. You are not limited to Summertime/Party themes.

To get the party started, I’ve put together a FREEBY printable for you to play with. You can download the PDF here! All you need to do is click on the link and then send it to your printer by clicking the printer icon on the left of the PDF screen.

Did you know that our Printables are only $1.99? You can print them as many times as you wish as long as you are using them for personal use. What a bargain!

I’m hoping everyone enjoys a safe holiday weekend! Fire up that bar-b-que and have fun!
