MHKDesigner Inspiration: Shawna

Hello Friends,

For today I have an inspiration card using your MHKDesigns digital stamps and papers. MHKDesigns makes it easy to create fantastic, elegant cards. Case in point, here is my card for today, enjoy!

You will see me use the 'Birdcage Silhouettes' many times throughout
my posts. This set is so pretty and versatile.
______________________________
MHKDesigns vintage images work so well with each other.
I invite you to check out her Etsy store and see for yourself
the versatility of stamp sets and the variety of digital papers we have to offer

______________________________


The flowers were outlined using an art sharpie pen and then
filled in using alcohol markers.

I hope this picture does the card justice by showing the outer border of the card.
You will see a pattern foiled in silver. This was done using a premade pattern (by others) and some foil paper pulled it through a heat machine and done! Keep an eye out, because I think I am going to use the negative image for another card.
The black polka-dotted ribbon lets that birdcage standout.
Plus, I think it frames the design in nicely. 



Since you are here, I encourage you to browse our blog and see more inventive ideas from our design team. It is our hope that you can play along with our monthly challenge. If not, just enjoy a bit of eye candy.

There is a lot more to discover at MHKDesigns Etsy Shop! Stop on over and see what we have to offer. It is certain to spark the imagination. So, thank you for stopping by and hope to see you soon. Take care and happy crafting.

All the best,

MHK Designer Inspiration - Rocky


     We have some fabulous new releases for you this month, this is one of them, Funky Flowers.
     The images were printed on white card arranged around the sentiment to form a frame. The sentiment should have come out green but due to a small hiccup with my printer it is a little more yellow, a lucky mishap as it turns out because now it goes so well with the flowers.
     The flowers are coloured in with some fine tip pens I have in my stash, then the image panel is mounted on a pearl orange layer before going on a Kraft card blank. Nice and flat for easy posting, here in the UK we have to pay more if it's considered too thick, something to do with the sorting machines I think.
     You can find this set in our Etsy shop but if you would like to win it then take a look at the release posts to find out how. Don't forget you can also win images by joining our monthly challenge.

Funky Flowers
   
  Happy Crafting.
