MHKDesigner Inspiration: Monica


Hi everyone. It's Monica from Taylormadecards4u. I am here today with my Designer inspiration for MHKDesigns. I am using an image from a beautiful set called Flutter and Fly


This was a very easy card to put together, but with a beautiful result. The bird and egg sticker I had in my stash and I added a fun sentiment from a Tim Holtz sticker set I had.


This is my last Designer Inspiration post for MHKDesigns. I hope that I have in some way inspired you with my creations and I have enjoyed working with Mynn's digital images.

Thanks for stopping by!

June Release: Hollyhock Happiness


Hello, friends!  Welcome to the June 2017 Release for the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop!  I have 5 fabulous  new sets to share this month and they cover MANY 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...

Hollyhock Happiness

This floral image is OH so fun to color! I used Spectrum Noir markers to color it. Then some rhinestones were added for some sparkle and shine.  I chose to keep this very CAS, so the only other embellishment is the faux stitching. I think the final result is very striking!

MHKDesigner Inspiration -- Julie

Butterflies, birds, flowers -- it's been a great month of new releases so far, hasn't it?  This is Julie from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers with you today.  I love to color flowers, and I colored up a New Release, Hollyhock of Happiness on this card.  There's always a great sentiment to go with it!


Those hollyhocks were so fun to color!  This time, I used color pencils on them, and had them take up the whole left-hand side of the card.  I added a die-cut butterfly to the white space above the sentiment (found in the Hollyhock of Happiness digital stamp set), mounted the card front on a piece of MHKDesigns Rosy Posy digital paper, and the card was complete.

And here is my card~

This has to be one of my favorite sets that I've made to date! I added the sentiment to the inside of the frame image before printing it off. I colored the frame with a Wink of Stella gold pen and Sakura gel pens. The birds were simply printed and fussy cut before being added. I chose to back my focal panel on a doily, then place it on top of some polka dot paper from the Rosy Posy paper pack. I love the soft colors and vintage feel of this card! What do you think?! I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments below! :)

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!
I usually never introduce so many elements to my card, but in this case, I thought it was justified because of its feminine feel (or maybe, just maybe, shabby chic?) 😲.
______________________________
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
______________________________


I have always been inspired by Mynn Kitchen's digital work.
Especially now that she has been incorporating digital watercolor in her designs.

You can see the top left corner of the card has some digital watercolor too.
Fantastic effect and surely will be using this technique more times in the future.
I fussy cut the flower and puffed up the petals for dimension.
I added it back to the front panel along with the leaves, ribbon, and dots.



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


     Welcome to my designer inspiration for this month, it's using one of the fab new sets released this month - Sit A Bit - which you can find in our Etsy shop.
     I used my photo package to copy the chair three times on to a layer of Country Farm backing paper and then wrote the greeting to go with it, changing the font for the word chair.
    Using a blue paper makes this an ideal masculine card, but you could just as easily print it on a different colour and change the Birthday for another occasion.
Sit A Bit
Country Farm
  Don't forget you have a chance to win this new set or one of the other four sets. All you need to do is comment on the new release posts, the DT posts or our Facebook page.   Happy crafting and good luck.
