MHKDesigner Inspiration: Jessica

Hello friends!

It's Designer Jess here today to share my April  MHKDesigns Designer Inspiration card! I used the new release stamp set called "Caring Crocus" to create this card.

Here is the Handmade Card that I created:

This is another sweet little notecard size (about 4x4.5"). I printed off the digi and watercolored with Nuvo Aqua Flow Pens. A few Crystal Drops were added as embellishment and a bit of twine around the bottom.  I can't wait to give this to someone who needs a little pick me up!

I hope you love this card as much as I do!  

Thanks for stopping by!  Feel free to leave a comment - I love to hear feedback :)

See you next time!

Hi everyone,

I'm honored to be sharing my latest New Release card for MHKDesigns, both here and over on my blog.  You can purchase this month's new release, Caring Crocus, at the MHKDesigns Etsy store

And here's my card...

I colored the image with alcohol markers, before cutting it, the frame and butterflies with some of my favorite dies (details on my blog).

I'll be back soon on my own blog with another creation, and next month on MHKDesigns, so I hope you'll join me then.  In the meantime, our current challenge can be found here, and don't forget to pop back to see what my amazing teamies have for you here.

Good morning, friends! Welcome to the start of another round of MHKDesigner Inspiration blog posts. Every month our Design Team will showcase a project featuring products available in the MHKDesigns Etsy Store.

I'm kicking off our series with a card featuring a digi from MHKD's April Release set called Caring Crocus which is available for purchase at MHKD's Etsy store. Here is a simple friendship card featuring the lovely crocus from the set. I printed three of them to form a cluster because one just wasn't enough!

Blessed Lily Freebie Panel

Hi, friends! By now, I think you all know that I have decided to do something NEW for the NEW YEAR! Each month I will be providing you with a freebie panel using that month's release set from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop! They will all be 8" x 10" so that they can be printed and used as home decor.

This month's featured set is Blessed Lily!

And here is this month's panel!

Now, some info about the freebie. There are just 3 rules about this, and future, freebie panels: 

1) You may not sell any cards you make using this panel. 

2) You may use this panel to enter MHKDesigns challenges ONCE.

3) You may ONLY alter the size of the panel as a whole. Cropping elements (images or sentiments) to use on their own is NOT allowed. 

I'm hoping the honor system will work with these freebies so that I can continue to share them with you all!

Here's what I did with the panel!

That's all I have for you today, friends!  Hop by tomorrow to check out our *NEW* challenge, and don't hesitate to grab the entire Valentine Roses from the MHKDesigns Etsy Shop!  Until tomorrow, HUGS and happy {digital} stamping!

Hello Everyone,

Today I am going to show you some inspiration for your MHKDesigns digital stamps. I am also going to feature our newest stamp set, Blessed Lily. Before I get to that, here is my card for today, enjoy!

The vintage Easter Lily and its background were largely created using digital software. The center of the lilies and some dark yellow accents were hand colored.

________________

 The inspiration comes from our new release set:

Blessed Lily

_____________

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 think the background is truly what makes this card shine!
I added lots of digital color wash and a woodgrain 'embossed' texture. 

A simple small bow adorns this Easter card. 

Since you are here, I encourage you to browse our blog and for more inventive ideas from the MHKDesigns talented design team. It is also our hope that you can play along with our monthly challenge. If not, sit back, and browse 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

     This month my MHK Designer Inspiration is another flat card, making it a standard postal charge in the UK, this month's release set is Blessed Lily so that's the image I have used.
     Using my photo package I have made a splodgey green background, then overlaid the image in white, along with the sentiment and a butterfly from Butterfly Wisdom.
     I added a little yellow around the stamens before adding another layered image, this time in a dark grey and slightly off the original to give a ghosting effect.
     Our very own Mynn has several YouTube videos you can watch to learn how to manipulate the images, this opens up many possibilities for your digital images.

Blessed Lily

Butterfly Wisdom

     Don't forget if you come and join in with our challenge you could win some of these gorgeous images, you don't have to use an MHK Designs image to enter either.
