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

Today I bring you another project made using the latest collection, Bohemian Harmony – a birthday card in the boho style 🙂

It’s a very simple card with neutral ecru and beige background with beautiful subtle patterns of the Boho papers. I decorated the flower cluster with punched tabs, crystal twigs and linen string:

Then I added a mini macrame I made using thick cotton thread and a toothpick 🙂

I finished the card off with a chipboard sentiment covered with opalescent glitter and glitter sequins.

I really like the way it turned out, even my first macrame ever 😉 Beautiful papers in the background helped to create a delicate card in neutral colours.

And here’s what I used:

Maja Design papers:

Other: flowers: Prima; vintage ribbon: Wild Orchid Crafts; punches: DpCraft; chipboard: Fabryka Weny; string, thread, sequins: my stash.

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

Chocolate Boxes For Grandparents

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

On January 21st and 22nd we celebrate Grandparents Days in Poland. Any kid blessed with grandparents knows how much they mean for them, and especially in Poland grandparents are often very much involved in upbringing of the young generation, looking over grandchildren when parents go to work. There’s no gift that would equal they amount of love and care grandparents share with their families, but I’m sure anything handmade would be of great value for them 🙂 And so for this incoming celebration I created a set of chocolate boxes:

I made the boxes using the Bohemian Harmony collection, perfect for both feminine and masculine projects, with this trendy eco boho vibe to them 🙂 For the Grandma box I used the flower bouquet patterned paper that provided beautiful background for the hearts pattern I added with a stencil, the flower cluster and embossed sentiment:

I decorated the box for Grandpa with gears pattern upon the striped pattern paper, the flower cluster with newspaper print and metal leaves to make it look more masculine 🙂 linen string and matte gold sequins:

Inside the boxes, apart from the chocolate pocket, I included tags for writing in wishes:

I really like the way these turned out, serving both and gift packaging and best wishes cards 🙂

Here’s the list of my supplies:

Maja Design papers:

Other: flowers: Prima, Petaloo; leaves: Prima, my stash; stamps, stencils, chipboard: Agateria; ribbon: Rayher; string, sequins: my stash.

Wishing all the best to all Grandparents around the world – that’s all for today, see you later!

Happy 2022.  May you all have a fabulous and healthy year filled with crafty joy and lots of Maja Design beauty.

I am Jennifer Snyder and I’d like to share my card created using Maja Design’s newest collection, Bohemian Harmony with it’s coordinating Monochrome collection, Shades of Boho.

 

 

The 12×12 sheets used are as follows: “Don’t Worry” and “Feel Alive”.  The solid cardstock is from the Monochromatic Shades of Boho collection and is called “Sienna”.

 The dies used for today’s card are from Spellbinders die of the month and from their new Garden Shutters collection.  I thought the gorgeous rich colors from the Boho collection played perfectly with the eyelet lace quality of the dies.

Thanks for stopping here today.  Happy crafting in 2022.

Hello friends.  Jennifer Snyder here to share some bi-fold Christmas cards with you.

Maja Design has two fabulous collections to use all through the year:  Bohemian Harmony and Happy Christmas.  Each collection also has a coordinating monochrome collection:  Shades of Boho and Shades of Happy

Here is the first card created using the gorgeous Bohemian Harmony collection.  While not a traditional “Christmas” look, it still works nicely with the chipboard wreath used as the main design element.

Some extra design details: The chipboard used on both cards today is from Creative Embellishments and it’s been gussied using Stickles glitter glue.  The background die is from Spellbinders.

 

 

Here is the second card which features the Happy Christmas collection.  The chipboard wreath has been embellished using glitter buttons from Buttons Galore and More.

 

 

Thank you for stopping here to visit.  Wishing you a wonderful warm Christmas season.

Happy Crafting.
