Denim Get Well Card

11 August, 2018 - Denim & Friends

Jennifer Snyder here with a card made from Maja Design’s fun and flirty Denim & Friends collection.

The colors and patterns in this collection look like they came straight from your favorite pair of old worn jeans and a comfortable shirt.

These are the papers I used from the collection:

Stonewashed

Floral -both A side and B side of paper

Summer Shirt

Aren’t the beautiful florals delicate and “comfortable”?

Here is a close up of the front.

The stamped sentiment is from JustRite Stamps.

In case you did not know, the Denim & Friends collection has a companion collection of solid colored monochrome papers to perfectly coordinate and make any project look polished and complete. The solid monochrome collection is called Shades of Denim. It’s absolutely a must for those of us who love everything to be perfectly coordinated.

Here is just another perspective of the card.

I kept the embellishments clean on the card because I want the paper and sentiment to be the focal points.

Thanks for stopping here today.

Thanks for stopping here today.

I’m Jennifer Snyder and I would like to share a wedding card I made for my niece.

When I need gorgeous elegant paper, I reach for paper from Maja Design.

My niece is having an “end of summer’ wedding, so I decided to pick papers from

Vintage Summer Basics collection – with it’s wonderful array of blues, teals, pinks and creams. These are the two papers I used from the collection:

1921

1923

This card is a shaker card. I filled the chipboard heart designs with light pink crystal gems. The image below shows the dimension of the chipboard hearts from Creative Embellishments.

Thanks for stopping by today. Happy crafting.

Jennifer Snyder here sharing how much I adore the seaside collection by Maja Design called Life by the Sea. I find this collection to be soothing, peaceful and calming.

These are the papers I used from Life by the Sea by Maja Design
Regatta (B side)
Bottle Message ( A and B side)

In order to give my card an extra pop of nautical fun, I added a chipboard heart net from Creative Embellishments and a flair button. I think the embellishments complement the papers perfectly.

Here is one last image to show the dimension of the card.

Thanks for stopping by today. Happy crafting.

Rainbows and Unicorns – Dimensional Card

Jennifer Snyder here to share a magical unicorn moment with Maja Design’s Enjoying Outdoors collection.

My sentiment reads : “It’s going to be a rainbows and unicorns kind of day.”
Some days are meant to be extra special.
Beautiful Maja Design papers can also help to make a day extra special.

The Enjoying Outdoors collection has rich purples and greens that make me think of unicorns. I am not sure why I connect purple with unicorns, but I do.

That’s the very reason I selected this paper. These are the 12×12 pieces I used from the collection:

Flourishing

Woodlands

The Great Nature

The dimensional die used on this card is from Spellbinders and Becca Feeken. The Unicorn die is also from Spellbinders. The die set is mean to fold flat to fit into an envelope.

This is an image of the multiple layers of the card – the layers which make the card dimensional. Scrolling down, the next image down shows the card folding flat for placing in an envelope.

Thanks for stopping here today. I hope your day is filled with rainbows, unicorns and beautiful Maja Design papers.

Snowman SnowGlobe Shaker Card

Jennifer Snyder here sharing winter fun with an adorable snowman snow globe card.

I realize it’s summer, and the snow is finally gone – but I really do love snowmen and snow globes. Plus when I add a shaker card, I’m loving life.

Here are the papers I used from the Vintage Winter collection by Maja Design:

Hej-mitt-vinterland

Fun in the Snow

Winter Joy

The snow globe was created using the cool die from Spellbinders and Becca Feeken. The snowman is also a Spellbinders die.

To assemble the card, I cut the sweet snowman from the Vintage Winter collection and glued him to the side of the shaker snow globe.

Here is a quick 30 second video showing the snow globe shaker card in motion.

I just love making shaker cards.

The die has many pieces – meaning many layers to assemble in order to create the dimensional look.

My snowballs are actually little foam balls. They work perfectly here.

I wanted the snow to shake and fall around the snowman and be a bit more dimensional.

In order to do that, I have provided my “sandwich” – describing the way I created the layers.

You can see a close up of the layers in the image below.

On the second side of the shaker card, I cut the image of the little boy throwing snowballs from the Maja Design paper. Perfect for my card.

Thanks for stopping here to see my winter creation. Now back to Summer….

Happy Crafting.
