MHKDesigns: July 2017 Challenge

Happy July, friends! It's time for a brand new challenge over at the MHKDesigns blog. This month's inspiration has some beautiful summery colors and a lot of nature! If you don't want to follow the inspiration, but you're going to use products from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop, then it's ANYTHING GOES! But, seriously. This inspiration...

Isn't that so beautiful?! I was inspired by the flowers and bold colors. I went pretty simple, but I love the effect. Take a peek at my finished creation...

This card uses an image and sentiment from the Get Well Flowers digital stamp set. I recolored the rose image to make it yellow, then printed it out on a panel. The sentiment was printed on vellum. I chose to use bright green and red to mat my various panels before adding them to a kraft card base. Some faux stitching and glitter were added for texture and shine.

I added some glitter gel pen to the heart of the sentiment to make it match the red the sentiment was matted onto. I LOVE the way this looks and I hope you agree! I can't wait to read your thoughts in the 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!

MHKDesigns: Birdcage Silhouettes

Hello, friends!  Welcome to the April 2017 Release for the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop!  I have 5 fabulous *NEW* sets to share this month--and they cover a variety of occasions!  I just know you will LOVE all the creations that my team and I have to share, as well!  Today's set is called...

Birdcage Silhouettes

And here is my card~

 

I used various Photoshop tools to create this fun card panel. I used an ombre effect on the sentiment, then added some rhinestone and liquid pearl flowers with punched paper leaves to the birdcage images. 

Two sets of staples completed the panel and help the cardstock stay adhered to its pink glitter paper mat. I think card is super fun and different from what I usually make! I had a blast making it, too! So, what are your thoughts on this creation? I would love to hear your thoughts in the comments below! :)

MHKDesigns: August Challenge

Hello, everyone!  I am back today with another card for our new challenge over at MHKDesigns!  We have a really pretty 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 is my take on this challenge~

I used the image from the *NEW* Pansy Corner digital stamp set as my focal point.  I kept it black and white to keep this card totally simple.  

The sentiment is from the Birds & Branches set and was printed onto vellum and added as a stapled banner over the image.  I love the way vellum adds another level of elegance to a creation!

I used papers from the Egg-cellent Easter, Easter Flowers, and Twinkle Twinkle Little Dots paper packs.  A punched border, some rhinestones, and a lot of gray matting completed this card.  I really do love the way it turned out, and I hope you do, too!  Please do leave me a comment below to let me know your thoughts! :)

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!
