Hi everyone! Today I am back with an easel card. I have used one of my favorite collections for my card, the Denim & Friends collection. The card was made for a colour challenge at the Norwegian card magazine Ett Trykk, with the colours mint and turquoise. I tried to find some suitable Maja papers to fit the challenge.
The cute image is from Magnolia and the Denim Collection, and I have coloured it with Distress Ink, re-inkers and Markers. The dies used are also from Magnolia.
The texts are from Ett Trykk.
Under you can view the card from the side. I made it for my friend’s 40th anniversary.
I have made the flowers myself. I have placed them both on the upper part of the card, and on the lower part. So when it is open, it looks like the flowers are together in a way.
Want to see how they are made? Here I have some photos from the making.
I lay the flowers down on a newspaper, and spray them with water (the flower dies are from Magnolia).
Then I curl them up, and let them to dry.
When they are dry, I curl them up again, and place them together with some Wild Orchid Crafts stamens in the middle. Here comes a list of papers used:
Thank you so much for visiting the Maja Blog!
With love,
