Thank You Jayne Nelson

We have been so grateful to have Jayne Nelson as part of the Hero Arts Creative Team for over two years. We have enjoyed having her on the team as she has created many beautiful and inspiring projects. Sadly, she will no longer be part of the team in 2018. We asked other members of the team to share one of their favorite projects of Jayne's during her time on the team. First up is Michelle....

One of my favourite projects of Jayne's is this weather card. She made it as part of the February 2017 My Monthly Hero release. I was in awe of it then and I still am! Jayne's use of colours, textures, dimension and amazing design just amaze me. She is truly a talented card maker and designer. She will be greatly missed from the team.

Amy had this to say: Jayne has such a fabulous style and I love her use of color! It's so hard to pick just one favorite project that Jayne has designed but I love this one.

And Janette chose the same card! But for different reasons! This just shows that Jayne's projects inspire people in different ways.

I love the way Jayne thinks outside of the box. This card, created with Hero Arts Spiral Stencil, was an eye opener for me. I didn’t even see the stencil in a circular design. Here she’s mastered the circles in several sizes and a brilliant color palette! I love with another crafter provides an a-ha moment in my head! Keep creating, Jayne. Your talent knows no bounds! xo, Janette

Clare also shared her thoughts on Jayne's project: There's just so many amazing cards that Jayne has made, that I decided to limit my fave to a more recent project. I really love this project for so many reasons - the overall design, the unique color combo, the little sentiment and flower, but mostly because of the unique use of stencils. Stencils are something I personally struggle with, but Jayne seems to have a knack for taking supplies and techniques that would often be overlooked, and making them the star of the show. Jayne has been such an inspiration - to me and many others - not just with her creative cards, but her incredible sweetness and kindness. It has been a privilege designing "alongside" you, Jayne, and I wish the best in your future endeavors!

Next up is Libby: I can honestly say that I love every single card Jayne makes. They are always stunning, and her attention to detail is fantastic. (And may I just add - she's a dream to work with!) But this one stands out as one of my absolutely favorites. Jayne had the clever idea to turn orchid stamps into cherry blossoms - so perfect!!

Jess chose her favorite: This is my favorite card in Jayne's Flickr feed but honestly I loved scrolling through the feed in general. Her use of unusual color palettes is masterful and her feed is so bright and cheery! I loved this card in particular because I loved the black and white with that pop of pink and orange. It's a beautiful take on the spotlight technique! I'll miss Jayne's bright and cheery creations! :)

Now on to Tami's choice: It has been an absolute pleasure to work with Jayne for more than two years. I appreciate her talent and the detail that she puts into her beautiful work. Most of all, I appreciate her kindness and thoughtfulness. She truly has a heart of gold. Jayne -- you will be missed. Thank you for everything!!

Lastly, from Jana: Jayne, you will be missed. Both of being an absolute joy to work with but also for your wonderful creations. I had a hard time choosing a favorite but I went way back to 2015 because this one struck me at the time and still does. I love simpler cards that take your breath away and this one did. I love the non-traditional colors and the design is sheer perfection. Thank you for all of you have done for Hero Arts. We will miss you.

Thank you Jayne for everything you have done for Hero Arts. We wish you the very best.
