Hi there! I am back with a short post for you today. It is sooo busy this time of year, and I only had time to make a tag for you. I have used this beautiful papers from the Vintage Romance collection.

Vintage-Romance-P

The cute image is a new one from Magnolia, and she is called Happy 2017 Tilda. She is coloured with Distress Ink, re-inkers. And for the pink colour on her dress I have mixed together Victorian Velvet and Dusty Concord. For the darker parts I have used Hickory Smoke and Frayed Burlap.

I have decorated the whole tag with different laces, and then added some Maja papers. I have also used some small doilies and cheese cloth. The small flowers are punched out with a Small Retro Flower Punch. The postmark stamps are from Stempelglede. I have also added Fran-Tage on the the edges of the circle. Inside the flowers I have put some Liquid Pearls, and also on the scallops around the image.

Here is the paper used. Passion behind Tilda, and Walk with me for the flowers. This is a good way to use left overs 😉

I wish you a lovely time now before Christmas, and not a stressful one. Try to take some breaks and spoil yourselves!

Big hugs,

Camilla

Hello Maja fans!!!

Mary is up on the blog today and I have a Christmas tag to share with you. This is my first project made with the brand new ”I Wiss” collection and I have to say that I really loved it!!! These papers are simply amazing!!!

Close up 1

I used two papers for my background, the ”I wish those memories will last” and for the second layer the ”I wish for frosty mornings”. I applied modeling paste with a stencil to create some texture. Then, I made some splatters with ”Dark Chocolate Truffle” Lindy’s Stamp Gang mist and some random stamping with a script stamp and ”Coffee” Archival ink .

Close up 2

I heat embossed the title and the ”Corner Sweet Holly” chipboard, which I cut in two pieces, with ”Midnight Bronze” embossing powder and the little birds on it with ”King Midas Gold”. With the same powder I also embossed the ”Flower Chain” chippie. The snowflakes were embossed with two powders, first with ”Silver Moon Turquoise” and then with ”Golder Angel Wings”.

Close up 3

  I made a floral frame with a die and the ”I wish for peace and joy” paper and placed it on my cluster under my main flower. A little sisal, colored with the same mist I used before, completed my cluster. Some microbeads and glass glitter and my christmas tag was ready.

All the chipboards used were 2Crafty and the flowers were Prima Marketing.

Well, that’s all for today, my friends!

See you again in two weeks!

Hello dear friends! Its Evgenia Petzer with you today and I will show you the mini album that I made for a girl. Its based on the tags (dies) that I cut from the very strong cardboard and then decorated.

Here is the cover ( I have used lots of lace, pearls, chipboard in my album).

In some frames where the photos will be placed, for now I put the photo of my little one- just to show how it will look altogether (I have only boys, so this baby album will be for some other little princess).

For the tags themselves I used the die cut by Tim Holtz (sizzix) and lots of leftovers from my favourite Maja Papers (different collections), all the decoration is mainly from the Vintage Baby paper pad papers and I also used these 2 sheets for the fussy cutting.

 and 

Have a lovely sunny day,

Joy and Peace Card by Irene Tan 1

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.

Hello friends!

I’m in today to share a Christmas project for Maja Design. I’m not much for Christmas papers as you would know by now, but their “Home for the Holidays” collection is absolutely delightful! For this month of December, I will be creating with this collection just to get into the festive cheer.

This is the tag I’ve made:

IMG_0423

I’ve done some layering of papers from the 6×6 paper pad, as well as with the die cut tags and postal stamps. Again, my background work was simple – with some festive words stenciled with modeling paste and colored over with a matching blue in watercolor and paint.

Some close-ups:

IMG_0426

A chipboard ornament which I colored with glitter ink and stacked on top of a die cut snowflake from one of the more neutral colored papers from the paper pad. I chose red to highlight the color in the bottom-most piece of patterned paper and to use it as an accent color that really popped.

IMG_0427

Layering of the tags which I fussy cut out. To create the snow falling on the tags, I added generous amounts of white glitter paint and allowed it to dry.

IMG_0429

This postage stamp really warms my heart! It reminds me of exactly what we do in cold weather with our loved ones – we cuddle!

That’s all I have for today. Have a great day ahead!
