Today I&#8217;m sharing my second card featuring products from this month&#8217;s My Monthly Super Hero from Hero Arts. This time I used the Library Card Stamp &amp; Cut along with the coordinating Pocket Die to create a very different card than my first one; you can see it<a href=\"https:\/\/mycraftytrails.com\/2026\/08\/24\/hero-arts-my-monthly-super-hero-august-2026\/\"> here<\/a>. My first card was elegant and ornate, while this one has a cleaner design and is a little more whimsical. I can&#8217;t wait to tell you about it, but first check out the supplies I used!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:18px\"><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#a0223b\" class=\"has-inline-color\">SUPPLIES<\/mark><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">Hero Arts August 2026 My Monthly Super Hero: Little Library<br> \u2022 Library Card Stamp &amp; Cut<br> \u2022 Library Card Pocket Die Set<br>Hero Arts January 2026 My Monthly Super Hero<br> \u2022 Mini Notecard Die Set &#8211; small hearts<br>Hero Arts Novel Prose Bold Prints Cling Stamp (I mentioned in my last post that this is no longer on the Hero Arts site \ud83d\ude41, but any text background would work here)<br>Waffle Flower Quilting Texture Die<br>SSS Schoolhouse Red Ink Pad<br>Neenah Desert Storm Cardstock<br>Spellbinders Cardstock: Merlot, Alabaster, and Tuscan<br>Spellbinders Silver Treasured Cardstock: Matte Metallic<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"656\" height=\"656\" data-attachment-id=\"4955\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/mycraftytrails.com\/?attachment_id=4955\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mycraftytrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/august-2026-54.png?fit=2048%2C2048&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2048,2048\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"August 2026-54\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mycraftytrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/august-2026-54.png?fit=656%2C656&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mycraftytrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/august-2026-54.png?resize=656%2C656&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4955\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">First I created the library card and the coordinating pocket. This little pocket is the cutest, and Tuscan cardstock is the perfect color for this school library-inspired card design. I die-cut the pieces and then assembled the pocket. After die-cutting the library card from Alabaster cardstock, I used the coordinating stamps to add the library card details and the sentiments. To embellish the pocket, I used the dies included with the set to die-cut the larger heart from Merlot cardstock and the tiny paper clip from Matte Silver cardstock. I also stamped and then die-cut with the coordinating die the small &#8220;first edition&#8221; label to add to the outside of the pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">Next I created the background panel. I started with a piece of Merlot cardstock and trimmed it to 4.25 x 5.5 inches. I die-cut it with a texture die and then layered it with two panels, one Alabaster cardstock and the other kraft cardstock stamped with a text background stamp. I trimmed the Alabaster cardstock slightly larger than the stamped panel, which I had trimmed to approximately 3.75 x 5 inches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"656\" height=\"656\" data-attachment-id=\"4958\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/mycraftytrails.com\/?attachment_id=4958\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mycraftytrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/august-2026-56.png?fit=2048%2C2048&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"2048,2048\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-title=\"August 2026-56\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mycraftytrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/august-2026-56.png?fit=656%2C656&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/mycraftytrails.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/august-2026-56.png?resize=656%2C656&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4958\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">To assemble the card, I attached the pocket with a liquid adhesive and slid in the library card. Then I added a couple of pieces of &#8220;tape,&#8221; dies included with the set, and a few small hearts to balance out the design. Lastly, I attached the card front to a top-fold card base, and that was it for this school library-themed card!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:17px\">Thanks again for stopping by!
