Hello Maja Friends, are you ready to meet the Winter Season

We have the snow already and it inspired me to create something snowy:

I played with an oldie paper collection – Home for the Holidays, still one of my favorite.

I made a few paper layers , die cutting elements and some other embellishments

Hope you have a wonderful season too and that you have already started preparing for Christmas and New Year.

Hello dear Maja friends!

Today two inspiration vintage christmas cards,

which I made with our latest Christmas/ Winter collection ‘Holidays in the alps’ .

 Are you more the classic christmas color type – Red, green, gold –

or maybe more the winter type in blue shades and silver?

 

I think, there is something for every type in our paper collection.

Hi everyone! Here I am with a heart shaped Christmas card using gorgeous papers from the collection called Vintage Frost Basics.

I have cut out all the dies from the pattern papers. Here you can see tones, music stand and postmarks. I have coloured the Magnolia image to match with the papers in blue and brown.

For the postmarks I have used the sheet called 2nd of December.

And here is the music stand. I have added a little angel above.

I really enjoyed making this card, using some of my favourite colours, and adding the notes around the singing image. The image is coloured using Distress inks for my painting. I have also added some Fran-tage around the image, so it looks like the snow which is falling down. So I wish for a white Christmas.

Have you seen the new collection from MajaDesign? It is called Little street Cafe.

I have made some products with these papers lately, and here is my first. A birthday tag.

I love the fun colours, they just make me smile, like this image here.

Here I have used: Tea please, Something sweet and Delisious.

Thank you so much for visting the MajaDesign blog!

With love,

Interactive christmas card

Hello Maja Friends,

1 day left and we will meet Winter and the most busy month of the year December.

It is never too early to start your Christmas preparations

 

Since I make some sweet gift for my friends and put the chocolate inside the cards, I decided to create simple boxes to hold the chocolate bars

I cut out the images of the lady from the brand new Holiday in the Alpes collection

I like this silver – blue – white palette I chose , it’s more traditional for me since my childhood and reminds me the heavy snow we had many many years ago in Belarus

So I used mostly white embellishments – crochet, flowers and and some silver accents.

and I love the quote
