Paper Sweeties Challenge - June 2017 - Anything Goes!

Hello, friends! It's time for the June monthly challenge at Paper Sweeties, and there is a delicious photo inspiration for you this month. Take a peek...

I was totally inspired by all those gorgeous cherries and the colors/patterns in the photo. Here's my completed creation...

I used images from the Mason Jar and Homegrown stamp sets. I paper pieced the jar and colored the cherries with Sakura gel pens. I then used the Mason Jar Sweet Cuts and Homegrown Sweet Cuts dies to cut these images out. Some dies from the Sweet Borders Sweet Cuts die set were also used to accent my images.

A doily and some ribbon up top finished this fun card! I think it looks good enough to eat. ;) What do you think? I would love to hear your comments below!

That's all for me, friends!  Thank you SO MUCH for stopping by!  I hope you come and join in the fun with us this month, and don't forget to check out the other DT makes!

MHKDesigns: May 2017 Challenge

Happy May, friends! It's time for another monthly challenge to begin at MHKDesigns, and this month we have a fun birthday themed inspiration for you! Of course, if you use products from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop, it's ANYTHING GOES! But we love seeing everything you make, so link up with us! Here's this month's inspiration...

I was inspired by the colors, cakes, and polka dots! I did some layering, coloring, and glitterfying (that's a word!) to create my creation this moth. Take a peek at my completed card...

The image and sentiment are both from the Eat Your Cake! digital stamp set. I colored the image in with gel pens and added glitter to the frosting. The sentiment was printed onto vellum before being added as a pennant to the card.

The papers I used are from the Rosy Posy digital paper pack. I added some magenta glitter paper, a doily, and a gold washi star with a rhinestone in the middle to finish the card off.  I hope you like it! I'd love to hear your thoughts in 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: March Challenge

Hello, everyone!  Happy March! It's beginning to look like spring here in the Northern Hemisphere, and Easter is upon us, as well, so we've got a photo inspiration challenge to match at MHKDesigns!  Take a peek...

I was inspired by the colors and flowers in the photo. I chose to do a more floral creation this month so I could practice my coloring with Spectrum Noir markers. Check out my creation...

These beautiful flowers are from the Open Bloom set. I used the Spectrum Noir pinks, yellows, and greens to color them in. The shadowing in the image makes coloring them super simple!

The sentiment is from the I've Been Framed set. I printed it onto vellum, then punched it out with a circle punch and framed it with gems. I love the way the border turned out!

The papers I used to accent the card base are from the Trick or Treat and Egg-cellent Easter paper packs. Some ribbon up top ties is all together! I love the way this turned out, and I hope you do, too!  Please do leave me a comment to let me know what you think! :)

MHKDesigns: Bunny Love Freebie!

Hi, friends!  I've got another FREEBIE for you over on the MHKDesigns blog today, so hop over there to grab it!  I thought you might want to see the panel in action, so take a peek...

This card uses the Bunny Love digital stamp set for the image and the sentiment.  I recolored both before printing them.  Although the panel was made to print at 3.75" x 5", I cut it down even more.  I highlighted the recolored image with some glitter gel pens from Sakura and added some purple gingham ribbon to tie in the colors from the Egg-cellent Easter paper I used to prep the card base.

I think the bright yellow doily finished off this card beautifully, and I adore the finished product!  What do you think?  I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below! :)

Thanks for stopping by today, friends!  I hope you hop over to the MHKDesigns blog to grab this panel--I can't wait to see what you create with it!  Also, I hope you join us TOMORROW for a brand new challenge!  You can use the freebie panel to join us! ;)  Until next time, HUGS and happy {digital} stamping, friends! :)
