Trick or Treat!

Hi, friends! It's been a long time since I stopped to create just because, but I had a fun idea and needed to roll with it! It ended up as a funky Halloween tag--take a peek!

I started by recoloring the image from the Pumpkin Jack digital stamp set from MHKDesigns. I then printed it onto white cardstock, colored it in with Spectrum Noir markers, and fussy cut it out. I added some glitter, leaves punched from the Trick or Treat digital paper pack, and a sweet tiny flower handmade and sent to me by my friend Cohenna!

I added some torn black cardstock, a patterned paper banner made from paper from the Twinkle Twinkle Little Dots digital paper pack, another strip of paper from the Trick or Treat digital paper pack, and a sentiment from the Halloween Party digital stamp set. I chose to keep the edges clean so that the different colors would POP!

Some white seam binding ribbon, black and white baker's twine, and a purple button finish off this fun tag. I really adore the way it turned out, and I hope you like it, too! I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

Thanks for stopping by today, friends! That's all I have for now, but I'll be back soon with more paper crafted projects to share. :) I hope you all have a Happy Halloween on Monday, too! Until next time, HUGS and happy {digital} stamping! :)

MHKDesigns: October/November Challenge

Hello, everyone! I am back today with another card for our new challenge over at MHKDesigns! We have a lovely monochrome holiday photo/color inspiration for you this month, and I can't wait to see what you create with it! Take a look at the inspiration...

And here's my take on this challenge~

I watercolored the image from the *NEW* Wonderful Wreath set then added a sentiment from the Fruit Borders set over the top on vellum. A few gold rhinestones add more shine.

I gussied up the card base with some paper from the Deck the Halls paper pack, then added a doily and some fun felt ribbon to the top. I rounded the corners of this card to mirror the roundness of the wreath and sequins, as well. I love this card, and hope you agree that it's lovely! I would appreciate hearing your thoughts on the comments below! :)

Thank you so much for stopping by today, friends! I hope you hop over to join in our monthly challenge at MHKDesigns! There are prizes for each one, and you can use any products you'd like! :) Don't forget to leave some love with the other gals on this wonderful DT, too!

MHKDesigns: New Year Greetings

Hello, friends! It is time for another release for the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop, and I have some super fun sets and papers coming your way! There are a few "anytime" sets, and we're also looking ahead to a few winter holidays this month! I hope you grab them for your stash! Today we are featuring the *NEW*...

New Year Greetings set!

Nothing says "NEW YEAR" to me like confetti--so I decided to pair this set with some paper from the Twinkle Twinkle Little Dots paper pack. Take a peek at my card...

I watercolored the image from the *NEW* New Year Greetings set, then added some texture and sparkle with some glitter gel pen. I kept the colors frosty, with just a hint of red. :)

I added some punched and layered snowflakes, washi tapes, rhienstones, enamel dots, and a banner sentiment from the *NEW* New Year Greetings set to finish this card off. I think this is super festive and fun, and hope you agree! Please leave a comment below to let me know your thoughts! :)
