MHKDesigns: Hoppy Easter

Hello, friends!  Welcome to the February 2017 Release for the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop!  I have 5 fabulous sets to share this month, along with one paper pack.  I just know you will LOVE all the creations that my team and I have to share, as well!  Today's set is called...

Hoppy Easter

And here is my card~

I colored this image with colored pencils, added a bit of faux stitching, then anchored it with baker's twine and a button.  I added it to an easel card base prepped with patterned paper from the *NEW* Rosy Posy paper pack, a doily, and some washi tape.  

The sentiment holds the easel up, and it is backed by the same yellow polka dotted paper from the *NEW* Rosy Posy paper pack.

I love the fun springtime colors on this card!  I hope you like it, too!  I can't wait to hear what you think in the comments below! :)

Pears of Gratitude

Hello, my friends!  I hope your New Year is off to a wonderful start!  I decided to take some time to create before I start my last semester of my bachelor's program (yay!), and I've got a bold colored creation for you today!  Take a peek...

My image is from the Fruit Borders digital stamp set from MHKDesigns.  I colored it with colored pencils and matted it with some magenta glitter paper.  The sentiment if from the Tulip of Thanks digital stamp set.  I printed it onto vellum and added it across the image after creating a banner.

 A punched border, a doily, and some paper from the Get Well Flowers digital paper pack helped me to finish off this card!  A few rhinestones were thrown on to add a bit of shine, as well.  I really love the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too!  I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below!

MHKDesigns: Here For You SURPRISE Blog Hop!

Hello, my friends!  Welcome to a SPECIAL SURPRISE blog hop for my dear friend, Julie Odil!  Julie was recently diagnosed with a rare form of lymphoma, so this hop is our was of letting her know that we are here for her.  You should have come here from the MHKDesigns blog.  If you didn't, please hop over to THIS POST for a complete list of participants!

Along with this hop, there is a special release digital stamp set and paper pack from the MHKDesigns Etsy shop designed specifically for sending get well cards to those struggling with different forms of cancer.  The colors of the paper pack are lavender (all cancers awareness), lime green (lymphoma awareness), pink (breast cancer awareness), teal (ovarian cancer awareness), and peach (cervical cancer awareness).  Take a peek at these products...

I used these two products to make a card for Julie.  I was inspired by the hop banner, as well.  Come see the completed card...

I printed an image from the Get Well Flowers digital stamp set onto white cardstock, then colored it in with colored pencils.  I added some Diamond Stickles for a bit of shine and texture (hard to photograph, sorry!), as well as some faux stitching.  The sentiment, also from the Get Well Flowers digital stamp set, was printed onto velum before being added over the top of the image panel.

The card base was prepped with some faux stitched papers from the Get Well Flowers digital paper pack.  These papers were also faux stitched to match the sentiment panel.  A doily and a smattering of rhinestones finished off this creation.   I hope that you love this card, Julie--it was made especially for YOU!

Julie, all of us are here for YOU during this difficult time, my friend!  You are so loved, and I want you to know that many prayers are being sent upwards for you.  I hope you feel our love today as you hop around and see what we all have in store for you!

Inside of my card.

Thank you so much for stopping by today, friends!  I know that Julie needs our support now more than ever, so let's band together and show her that we are here for her!  Your next stop on the hop is the lovely Asha.  Until next time, HUGS and happy stamping, friends! :)
