Hello Maja Fans,

a very good morning to you from Maja 🙂

I bet you already saw our latest collection, Vintage Baby, and fell in love with it 🙂 And you know you can create the cutest baby projects with it, can’t you? Here are two welcome baby cards I made:

Aren’t those baby images just too adorable? 🙂 With four cut-out sheets in the collection you can make cards in no time! (well, not my case, I’m a really snail-slow crafter…). The cards share the same design (only mirrored) and traditional boy-girl colours. Here’s the baby girl card:

As not everyone likes flowers in boy creations, I exchanged them for pom-poms. What would you use? 🙂

For the upper parts of the background panels I used papers from the small paper pad, so that those sweet toy images are better visible. Just love them 🙂

I think Vintage Baby is one of the most beautiful baby collections I’ve ever seen and worked with 🙂

BUT

with all themed collections I always feel the temptation to use them for something a bit different. And that’s what I love about Maja Design collections – they are so versatile you can use them for just any project you like 🙂 And so I created a layout for a little older babies 😉

And ? What do you think? 🙂 I think the papers are quite suitable for a cheefrul boy page too. For my layout I first added some pattern with a stencil and white gesso and distressed all the edges:

I matted the photo with several layers of papers and added my embellies:

I used Promarkers to colour the Pink Paislee Artisan word I used for my title:

And so, while I really love the baby imagery of the collection, I’m also happy it will suit any project actually 🙂
