MHKDesigns: Digital Emboss Resist


Hi, friends! I hope your August went well! I've got another creation to share with you today that uses products from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop--and it's completely ONE LAYER! I have a video tutorial on my YouTube station on how to create this card and the digital emboss resist effect, so head over there to check that, too! Here's my completed card...


This card uses an image and sentiment from the beautiful Mum's the Word digital stamp set. I used Photoshop to create the watercolor/emboss resist feel and to layer the elements. The colors are inspired by the upcoming autumn season here in the Northern Hemisphere. :)



After printing the card, all I did was round the corners for a finishing touch. I really adore the way this turned out and hope you like it, too! I would love for you to leave me your thoughts in the comments below!


That's all I have for you today, friends! Thank you so much for stopping by! I always love to hear from you, so please do let me know your thoughts in the comments below! Don't forget to head over to the MHKDesigns blog for more inspiration and join in our *NEW* challenge tomorrow for your chance at winning some digital goodies from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop! Until next time, HUGS and happy {digital} stamping, friends!

And here is my card~

This fun image/sentiment pairing is from this fabulous *NEW* Pet Puns set! I printed the image out and then did some water coloring on the image. 


I added some metal embellishments and faux stitching for added shine and texture. The focal panel was matted with paper from the Twinkle Twinkle Little Stripes digital paper pack before adding it to the kraft card base. I think this turned out to be so fun! What do you think?

MHKDesigns: August 2017 Release: Marvelous

And here is my card~

Once again, I used Photoshop to create the focal panel for this card. The Light of the World image and sentiment were placed on top of paper from the Worn and Weathered digital paper pack. I added some sequins, faux stitching, and distressing to the edges of the matting to add more texture. 


Some Wink of Stella was added to the image, although it is difficult to see in these photos. I do love the way this turned out, though! What do you think? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!
