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

No, I’m not here to wish you a happy Christmas – not yet 🙂 That’s just the title of the layout I made using our festive collection Happy Christmas:

When I saw this gingerbread cookies paper I instantly thought of this photo of my elder son from preschool, when he discovered the fun of playing with gingerbread dough (which was officially called “baking” :D) But I also wanted to showcase more beautiful patterns and motives, so I used the gingerbread paper for the middle panel that I placed against a darker star-patterned sheet. I used a signature strip at the top pf the layout and since I love the gnomes motif too I just cut it out from its original paper and added it to my page 🙂

I die-cut other decorative elements from various papers, as well as the heart and star shapes from kraft cardstock and added some patterns with white gel pen to make them look like gingerbread cookies 🙂

I also added some crystal stones, an art clay angel and glitter snowflakes to finish the layout. And I really like the way it turned out!

Here’s what I used:

Maja Design papers:

Other: dies: Magnolia, Craft&You Design, CreaLies; border punch: Martha Stewart; angel mold: Prosvet; crystals: my stash.

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

Hello sweet Maja fans,

Lenet here on this grey and rainy day. Well that’s what the weather is like here in the Netherlands.

Perfect weather  to put on your warm and comfy homewear, get a big mug of something nice and warm to drink and get crafting.

Today I bring you these three christmas cards.

For these I used the natural/craft colors of the 6×6 paperpad of this years Christmas collection Happy Christmas.

These are not the normal colors I would use for my christmas crafting, but I love how they turned out.

And who doesn’t love  christmas or  yule gnomes ?Well I do !

And I love these little guys, the are chippies from Scrapaholics,

I mixed some acrylic paint in the colors of the papers I used and painted them .

When they were dry I gave them a layer of clear embossing powder to give the colors and the little guys some dept and shine.

I did all the stitching by hand.

And here you can take a closer look at  each of the cards.

I hope you like my little gnome Christmas cards,

Thank you for visiting and hope to see you again soon.

Hello Maja Design Fans,

I’ve got 2 Merry Christmas cards to share with you today

 

I made them with the brand new Merry Christmas Collection, and  funny thing but it has plenty of Merry Christmas quotes that you can easily use for so many cards or Christmas projects.

I combined the papers of 12×12″ with 6×6 paper pad. and no doubt couldn’t resist to fussy cut those funny Santas

I added glittered cardstock and the traditional colors for this holiday started to shine more bright.

For my second card I added a bit of chocolate color, so cozy and warm and it reminds me the ginger biscuits for sure.

Hope you are all busy with Christmas preparations , keep safe.

Hello Sweet maja Fans,

Today I bring you this little project made with last years christmas collection Traditional Christmas. . I love this collection with it’s cute christmas gnomes theme.

We have a magicalnew Christmas collection but I had not recieved it yet when I made this.

I did a lot of fuzzy cutting for this one. It’s a matchbox with a tiny shakerdome on top of it.

To make this I used the matchbox die and the mini domes from Tim Holtz.

 

 

A close up from the shaker dome , with the tiny gnome and some glittersnow in it.

When you open the match box you wil find some  little labels in it , wich are perfect to use as little giftlabels for the christmas presents.

Here you see the labels , with again fussy cutting.and gnomes.

I hope you like my little project.

Stay safe and hope to see you back soon.
