MHK Designer Inspiration: Jerrie tiger

As summer swings into full bloom, the tiger lilies bloom too.  I love how the tips of the flowers fold back displaying a delicate flower.

I am excited today to share a card made with He Is Risen set from MHK Designs.  Using a glittered white cardstock and newsprint, the base was created.  A foil doily, patteerned paper and punched  leaves are the second layer.  The colored image is nestled on top to complete the card.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy your day.

Christmas In July

Do you have your holiday paper out to start making your Christmas cards?  Tis the season to start as it is Christmas in July!

MHK Designs is releasing a set each weekend in July to help get a jump start on those Christmas cards.  The new set called Christmas Candles has one inage and three sentiments.

Focusing on the sentiment, this card was created.

Cuppa Joe

Is there anything better than a cuppa joe?  It is the liquid morning to get you going!  Well, my cuppa joe inspired me to work with distressed inks and sprays today.

Using lots of supplies, the background was created with distressed ink.  Then stencils filled in the background.  There were some   stamps that added a little grunge, and acrylic paint to add some interest.  Some distress spray splatters added a perfect touch. The card was finished by adding three gems and layered on the base.

If The Shoe Fits, Buy The Matching Purse

Putting on the glitz!  Who can resist new shoes...and the matching purse!!  I love this vintage stamp set and decided it would be perfect to SPARKLE up!

The background is distress sprays.  Then it is stamped with Versa Mark and embossed with black powder.  Stenciling was done with distress ink and then Onyx glitter was added to some of the shapes.  Crochet thread was glued and dipped in Onyx glitter.  Thin dies created the circles and the stiletto.  The shoe was glitzed up with several colors of glitter and colored with Copic Markers.

Hooray for the Red,White and Blue

Hot off the press from MHK Designs is this Forever Wave set.   Just in time for July 4th!  I love all lthe patriotic sentiments and flag on this set. 

Below are two cards made using the new set.  I chose to feature the sentiment. 

And no 4th of July would be complete with out the flag proudly waving.  Three circles have been punched out of red, white and blue to showcase the colors of the flag.

Enjoy your 4th of July and may God bless the USA!

Diet Pepsi

AAH, summer time.   While planning our July 4th picnic, there are several items always thought about...they are listed on the printable on this card.  Yes...I am a Diet Pepsi girl.  When I go to my sisters, they are Diet Coke gals so we have this ongoing soda pop battle.

Since my family is having a card exchange in August, I made some cards for the others in the exchange...

The circle and grill are wafer thin dies and the circle was colored with distress ink and stamped with a grass stamp.
