Fun Inking Techniques with the April 2026 My Monthly Hero Kit: YouTube Video

Hello! I love the theme for this month’s My Monthly Hero Arts Kit, which is Plant Lady Society. As usual, there are a ton of amazing stamps and dies included in both the regular My Monthly Hero Kit and the My Monthly Super Hero. The vase stamps inspired me to do some fun inking techniques on this card, not just with the stamps themselves, but also with the card base.
