Hello friends,
You may have heard that Ellison, the parent company of Sizzix, has made claims of patent infringement against a number of companies in our industry, including Hero Arts.
Just so you know, there is absolutely no reason to change any purchasing patterns with Hero Arts, as Hero Arts does not infringe, believes the lawsuit is without merit, and intends to fight this lawsuit and win for the good of Hero Arts and the industry. Whether we like it or not, the legal process is a method to resolve disputes, and we must let that play out.
There is no reason to allow a chill on creativity or a disruption to business to creep into our beloved industry despite the current situation. In fact, let's work to do just the opposite and rally together to make our community even stronger. Hero Arts and the other companies involved remain the same creative, reliable, top selling brands you trust and love.
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask us at info@heroarts.com or leave a comment.
Yours in creativity,

Thank you for keeping up abreast of this issue. It is pertinent for us to remember to let this “play out”. So appreciate your sterling role in our creative community. Blessings to you.
I love love love hero arts!!!!!!!
It’s sad that it has to come to situations like this, in an industry that is usually so extremely supportive! There’s a place for everyone in this business,I would have thought…
We stand with you! Your inks and floral stamps have long been a personal fav! Thank you for all you have done for the industry.
I find this surprising…seems there is enough business to go around for all the businesses and that there should be more than one “game in town”. Shame on Ellison for this.
