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,

I believe in you! Your company is solidly built and one of the best in the industry!
Hero Arts and Lawn Fawn are my absolute favorite craft companies! I have no doubt that the accusations are unfounded. You are an inspiration in this industry! The only thing this lawsuit will cause me to change is to support you even more.
I support Hero Arts, very fine company. Love your products.
Aaron, you have my support completely. This whole lawsuit is purely about greed and have no base. Praying that the truth will win. Hugs & love.
Hero Arts has my complete support, as do the other companies/designers named in this ridiculous lawsuit by Ellison. I hope the support of this community will help to give you strength as you go through this trial.
