Good morning, dear Maja friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

Last Sunday we celebrated the most important Christian holiday of the year, the Resurrection of Christ. And of course I made some cards for the occasion 🙂 So today I bring you two cards shaped like Easter eggs, my favourite card form for this holiday:

For my cards I used the Celebration collection – nomen omen 🙂 I really like the blue-lilac combo, it looks so spring-fresh to me and I thought it would look good on spring-holiday cards.

Both cards have the same design – I layered selected papers to make the background for the focal image of the Lamb:

I added some flowers matching the colour palette and to emphasize the joyful, festive character of the cards I added some gold details: die-cut sentiment and catkin twogs and a glitter trim around the edges:

I really like how they turned out, dimensional yet still flat enough to go into an envelope 🙂

And here’s what I used:

Maja Design papers:

Other: stamp: Lemonade; dies: Rosy Owl, X-cut, Craft&You; flowers: Wild Orchid Crafts; sequins, string: my stash.

 

I hope you had a wonderful Easter time celebration, filled with love and peace!

That’s all for today, thank you for visiting and see you soon!

Jennifer Snyder here to share a fun pop and twist card crafted by pairing Maja Design papers with Spellbinders dies designed by Becca Feeken.

It’s a great day when you sit at your crafting table and can pair some of your favorite products together to create a project that is sure to make someone special smile.

Here are the beautiful papers used from the Maja Design Summertime collection:
Light Scarlet
It’s Always the Best
Smell the Roses

I love cards that are surprises. This card is a total surprise.  When opened it pops out to present a beautiful summer garden gate. 

Here is a quick video showing how my card opens.

 Here is the front of the card.  While the inside of the card is the real “show-stopper”, the outside is special and packed with beauty as well.  It features the delicate images found within the Summertime collection.

 Thanks for stopping here.  Â
