A Gift for You : MajaDesign

Cherish the time spent together

29 January, 2017 - A Gift for You, It’s Christmas time, Layouts, Vintage Spring Basics

Goodmorning lovelies,

Today it’s my turn again on this lovely blog and i’d like to share a 12×12 layout using several beautiful Maja Design paper collections. This time I have used a picture of my little family this picture makes me smile because hubby didn’t want to have his sunglasses on and now it looks like he needs to poop lol….

For my layout I used a whole bunch of new {well for me they are new} stamps from 49 and Market for the background. but also for my chipboard pieces. I just love the way this layout turned out because purple is my favorite color. The chipboard are all by Dusty Attic and I colored them with two different color distress ink + Faber Castell gelatos fig. Also I used some of the cute lavender prills…..and some paste with a stencil.

The flowers are by Little Birdie and Prima Marketing I was planing on using some amazing shimmer flowers by 49 and Market but somehow I ended up with these…..I really love the brown background sheet I used because of the text on it and that you can use it for any occasion.

For the first time I actually used a blending tool to do the colors on the background except the purple Lindy’s Stamp Gang spray I used it was totally different for me but great to do. I also cute out two sizes Cheery Lynn Designs French Pastry doily’s to add behind different parts of my layout to give it more flair.

Maja Design papers used: Vintage Spring Basics: 10th of April bs, 11th of April bs, A Gift for You: Die cut sheet bs & It’s Christmas time: Christmas thoughts.

Thank you so much for visiting the blog today and have a wonderful week!

Hello Maja Design fans!It’s Irene here today and it’s time for me to share a project for this Christmas. The project for today is a tag/card which I’ve created using Maja Design “A Gift For You” collection. This is a bigger than normal tag which is perfect as a card for a friend on this Christmas. The recipient can hang it onto their Christmas tree as a home decor.

I love the gorgeous vintage colors in this collection. I’ve chosen green, red and grey colors to create the layering for this card.

Here are more close-ups.

To create some intricate details on it, I’ve hand stitched on this card.

Hope you all like this simple card and I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all Happy Holidays!!

Supplies: Maja Design Pattern Papers: Given From The Heart – A Gift For You, Wishing You Peace & Joy – A Gift For You, From Santa with Love – A Gift For You, Shipped From The North Pole – A Gift For You; Others: Petaloo flowers and berries, twine, lace, thread for stitching, adhesives.

Christmas Carols in the Snow

Hello Everyone <3

Today I’m here with a little extra Christmas inspiration to you <3

About two weeks ago I made a box with 8 sides. I made the box my self using thick cardbord also known as chipboards 12×12. When I made this box I would give it a little extra Christmas spirit <3

On the side of the box, I used a Martha Stewart Punch called Eyelet Lace, this is a new personal favorite of mine. The snowflakes are a dies set from Tim Holtz called Mini Snowflake. The set is two snowflakes, and on my box I have placed some of them on top each other. I also decorated these with snow from a box and plastic snow.

The lid of the box is also cut out from chipboards and both sides have patterned paper, even at the edges. The top lid I’ve covered with alot of snow from a box and snow made from plastic. I have made my self a little Christmas story on the top. Christmas Carols in the Snow <3

On the lid I’ve used several dies from Tim Holtz. The Christmas tree in the background is put together with a dies named Evergreen <3 The Deer is from a set with two, called Reindeer Fligthe and the pair where the lady sings and the man plays, named Victorian Carolers. The other details are mushrooms, packages with some bullfinks. The bullfinks is a dies from kaBoks.

The Christmas tree is made from 16 trees that two and two are glued together. This is to get the patterned paper on both sides. In the tree you can see that I have used several Bullfinch.

Below the tree I have 3 red mushrooms and on the other side you’ll find a deer.

The packages I’ve put together myself without a tutorial. Also these are covered with snow and two of them I have placed some birds on.

When you remove the lid, you will see that I have covered the inside with patterned paper and pearl string.

The idea for the project I got when I saw the dies set with the lady and the gentleman from Tim Holtz. I just knew I had to make one project with this and give them the right Christmas atmosphere they deserve <3

For this box I have used paper from different collection from Maja Design:

Gammaldags-Jul-P

I wish you all a great weekend <3
