Unleash Your Creativity: Make Seasonal Scene Cards with CRITTERS!

September 1, 2025September 1, 2025 by nicholspohr

Welcome to the Hero Studio September release! Today I’m sharing a couple of adorable die cut scene cards featuring cozy critters all tucked into bed!

For my first card, I paired the cute critters with some of my favorite fall-themed die cuts from my stash to create the perfect autumn scene. Then I stretched my supplies even further and created a holiday version, with some of the same cute critters tucked in with Christmas die cuts, cozy and festive!

Introducing the reimagined Hero Arts monthly subscription programs, now with six original options each month. Be sure to visit the Hero Arts website for all the details.

BONUS: Receive a FREE Cozy Kitty Die Set with the purchase of The Whole Studio. (Not sold separately.)

    I missed the name of the piercing plate / cover die that created the PERFECT quilt pattern for both of these cards. Also, love seeing the holiday version. It gets my mind thinking about how else this die set could be used outside of the fall season.
