Welcome dear Maja friends!
Kerstin here, I’m the new guy and I’m coming more often now 😉
Today I want to share with you a new winter layout.
Winter is around the corner, fields and meadows are frozen, nature lies down to rest. The best time for creating or?! 🙂
I have created a very magical mixed media layout.
I used the amazing Maja Design ‘Joyous Winterday’ collection – Sparkle + Blizzard
and some stamps (border, stars, saying), corrugated cardboard, cutting dies (deers, trees, stars, snowflakes, Holiday greens – Sizzix), chipboards – Scrap FX, pinecones, feather and flowers.
I start my backgrounds with a thin clear gesso layer to be able to create a nice watercolour effect on my paper. The picture is always my eye -catching focal point.
I love to work with corrugated cardstock for a nature feeling and I’m always a big fan of cutting dies, so many possibilities, not only for cards, it’s also a wonderful addition for layouts or out off the page projects. The very good quality of Maja papers is perfect for that technique.
a piece of fell gift ribbon for a cozy feeling, some deers with cutting die and a leftover from a structure wallpaper
all Maja papers are printed on both sides, that’s very useful, so you can make special effects, the lower star looks like patchwork
Have a nice weekend!
