Hi there! Hope you all had a wonderful Easter. Here comes a card I have made both for Maja Design and Magnolia. I have will also show you how I made the moon and the pop-up effect.

Vintage-Spring-Basics-P

Vintage-Baby-P

For this project I have used the beautiful Vintage Spring Basics collection and the Vintage Baby collection. Now to the little step by step:

1

I started with making the moon. First I used my compasses. I made a circle with a diameter of 16 cm. Then I drew the rest of it by hand like this. I used hard cardboard for this.

2

Then I painted the edges of the moon with white Gesso.

3

Then I drew the moon on some Maja Design pattern papers (two times, for the front and the back).

4

Then I inked the edges with Distress Ink pad, Walnut Stain.

5

Place the baby on the moon.

6

Fold a paper strip like a rectangle and fasten it like this. Make two so that the moon will have a good grip inside the card. (You can see this better on the finished card)

7

To decorate the card, I have cut out some shapes from Maja papers: heart background, celebration, star tag, (flag and) cloud, castle. The dies are Magnolia DooHickeys.

I will now show you some details of the finished card, and how the pop-up looks like.

Hi! Here comes a new card where I have used the sweetest collection called Vintage Baby. I will give you the list of paper used at the end of this post. If you are wondering, the paper behind the card is from the Vintage Summer Basics collection and is called 1905

I have also cut out two butterflies from a paper from the Vintage Spring Collection called 6th of May.

This is a baptism card for a girl, so I have used papers in pink tones. I have also made two postmark stamps with Maja papers and a Magnolia die. The main image is a stamp from Stempelglede.

The pennants are made with a die from Magnolia, and I have fasten the letters on to them. I have used a beige Maja paper here.

The teddybears are from the bottom of a Maja paper. I have used gold embossing on the flag. The text is made with a stamp from Stempelglede.
