Jennifer Snyder here to share Maja Design’s newest, much anticipated Christmas collection called

Christmas Season along with the matching monochrome collection, Shades of Christmas.

These are the papers I used from the this gorgeous and unique collection.

Holly Jolly ( A and B side of paper)

Ephemera

Tidy Elves

Monochrome

The Maja Design Monochrome papers are always a perfect match. They are a great combination to enhance the collection.

Maja Design is known for the amazing versatility of their papers. While this may be called “Christmas Season”, I promise you won’t be putting this paper collection away with your decorations once the holidays are over.

The “B” sides of every sheet have designs that can be used through the year. That makes Maja’s papers a great value. The little flowers were made from the “B” side of the Holly Jolly paper. The red and white polka dot design is always a classic beauty.

Thanks for stopping today. Have a wonderful Christmas Season.

Hello there, its’ Elena here to share with you some ideas for Christmas gifts. Christmas Season is almost here and it’s time for the sweets and chocolate appreciation gifts.

So I thought that I might need more cards and more bags for the chocolate and decided to mix it. I made a card that has the pocket inside where you can put the chocolate bar.

I decorated them with the papers from Christmas Season collection and created the background with the Monochromes Shades of Christmas

I have also added the crochet doilies and some dies

In my place the winter sometimes is quite severe and due to that fact you are always dreaming for warm place, so that is why I ‘ve added so many knitted details

I also made one more card in traditional Christmas colors

Hello Sweet Maja fans.

Lenet here and I’m a little late today. I was working on an other project but got stuck on that one, so I decided to start a new one and that made me running out of time.

Today I made this Christmas layout for you , using the gorgeous new Christmas papers Christmas Season . LOOOOVE them.

While I was making this one I was listening to a mix of Evanescence , Night wish and Within Temptation so it got a little Gothic feel over it.

Not my intention but I love how it turned out , hope you do to.

The chippies U used ( the sentiments and swirls ) are from Dusty Attic. I colored them with embossing powder.

The sentiments with black embossing powder from WOW and the Iron Garnish #2 swirls with ultra thick festive candy from Blond Moments.

I love their embossing powders such a shame the company is not here any more.

The golden glitter snowflake , star and red and white berries are are from my stash , leaves from making memories and the branches with red from Prima marketing.

Thank you for stopping by, hope I gave you some inspiration with these wonderful papers.

For me it’s time to set the Christmas tree and start decorating the home..YAAAY. I love this time of the year.

Hope you enjoy your Holiday month too.

Good morning, Maja Friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

You have already had a chance to see some Christmas cards inspirations from my talented DT friends, using the latest Maja Design release, the Christmas Season collection. And here are mine too 🙂

I decided to feature both sets of the collection’s colour palette: the classic Christmas red and green and the very wintery blue and ecru.

For the first card I used a chipboard layered Christmas bauble as my focal element.

I layered the selected background papers and covered the bauble base with polka dot red sheet. Then I added the top filigree layer embossed with golden ep and decorated with a button and pearls. I also added the flower cluster to the top of the bauble:

The second card features a die-cut snowflake with a manger scene button:

To decorate it, I added a flower cluster with vintage seam ribbon bow and some postcards cut out from one of the papers. Various winter leaves and the snowflake are die-cut from glitter cardstock and they look like iced snow, glistening against the light! I also added some liquid pearls dots to imitate snow falling:

The cards are both a little dimensional, but will still fit into envelopes – perfect to mail to family and friends 🙂

And here’s what I used to create my cards:

Maja Design papers:

: Tidy Elves

: Tidy Elves-bs

: Candy Canes-bs

: Family Reunion

: Greeting cards

Other: dies: Sizzix, Magnolia, Spellbinders; flowers: Prima, Wild Orchid Crafts; chipboard: Wycinanka.pl; buttons: 3rd Eye; liquid pearls: Viva Decor.
