MHKDesigns: Framed Favorites FREEBIE!


Hi, friends! I have decided to do something NEW for the NEW YEAR! Each month I will be providing you with a freebie panel using that month's release set from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop! They will all be 8" x 10" so that they can be printed and used as home decor.

This month's featured set is Framed Favorites!

To grab the FREEBIE panel, head over to 

Here's what I did with the freebie.

I printed the freebie onto thick white cardstock. I then colored the pansies in with Spectrum Noir markers. I love this image so much--it's easy peasy to color realistically!



That's all I have for you today, friends!  Hop by tomorrow to check out our *NEW* challenge, and don't hesitate to grab the Framed Favorites from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop!  Until tomorrow, HUGS and happy {digital} stamping!

MHKDesigns: Framed Favorites


Hi, all! I'm back with another card using the *NEWLY RELEASED* Framed Favorites digital stamp set from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop! I went almost one layer for this card. Take a peek...


I created my card in Photoshop. I added some texture to the background, the added the wreath and sentiment from the Framed Favorites digital stamp set. I added more color to the wreath using various brushes.


Some burlap ribbon and washi tape were added to give more balance and texture to the card. I then punched the bottom corners to add a finished feel. I love this so much, and I hope you like it, too! Please feel free to let me know your thoughts in the comments below!


I'm entering this card into these fabulous challenges.~

MHKDesigns: January Challenge + Framed Favorites Release!


Hello and Happy New Year, everyone! I hope your year is prosperous and full of success and peace! I'm here today to share a card for this month's challenge at MHKDesigns. I've revamped how my Etsy shop will be running this year, so our challenge posts will ALSO include a monthly release set! This month's set is called...


And here is our challenge inspiration:

I decided to go shabby chic with my creation. I did a lot of layering and had tons of fun making this card! Take a peek...


I used Photoshop to create my panel before printing it out multiple times. The wreath and sentiment are from the Framed Favorites digital stamp set, the feathers are from the Fanciful Feathers digital stamp set, and the flowers are from the Get Well Flowers digital stamp set.


I added some cheesecloth, twine, jewels, and pins to add more texture to the focal panel. The sentiment was die cut and matted with dark brown. The panel was matted with the same color. I love the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too! I can't wait to hear your comments below!

Thanks for stopping by, friends! Come join in the fun on the MHKDesigns blog for your chance to win some digi goodies from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop! Until next time, HUGS and happy {digital} stamping, friends!

House of Cards January Challenge


Hi, all, and Happy New Year! It's time for our first challenge of the year at House of Cards, and we have a super fun inspiration photo/challenge for you! We'd like you to...

Create a mixed media project and/or use these colors!

I decided to kinda do both. I chose to work with digital images from MHKDesigns to create a digital mixed media project that uses my scriptural theme for 2018! Take a peek...


I used images from the Butterfly Wisdom, Chicken In, and Fabulously Fall digital stamp sets, as well as paper from the Rosy Posy digital paper pack for this print. I love the bold colors and can't wait to have it framed and up in my home! What do you think? I'd love to hear your comments below! :)

Thanks so much for stopping by today, friends!  I hope you take a bit of time to come and play along with us at House of Cards.  Don't forget to stop by the other DT members' blogs for even MORE amazing inspiration--they always blow me away!  I'll be back later this month with more crafty posts!  Until then, HUGS and happy stamping, friends! :)
