Hello Maja Design Friends.  Jennifer Snyder here celebrating Spring with some floral cards.

Today I combined two Maja Design collections to create my cards; the Little Street Cafe Collection, Fika collection and Miles Apart. These are the individual sheets from the collections:   “Feeling Good” paper from Little Street Cafe; “Be Safe” and “Distance” from Miles Apart; and “Hemgjord saft” from Fika.

     Be safe 

 

The first spring card combines the yellow/gold color from Little Street Cafe with the beautiful purple tones of Fika.

The dies for the flowers are from Spellbinders.

 

 

This card uses the papers from Miles Apart.  The delicate foliage pattern looks great with pink gingham paper.

I adore gingham as if that were not obvious  in the brown gingham ribbon on the first card as well as the pink gingham ribbon on this card.

 

 

Thank you for stopping here.

Hello friends.  Jennifer Snyder here today to share a slider greeting card created using the 6×6 paper pad from the ” Miles Apart” collection.  My choice in using this collection rises from a dark and gloomy winter in the COVID era.  I believe everyone could use both Spring and a hug.  This collection makes me think of both with gorgeous florals and delicate prints combined in lovely soft colors.

The images of the papers from the 6×6 paper pad are below:  “Distance” A and B side of paper, and “Stay Creative”.  I also featured the Monochrome collection, Shades of Miles”.  The matching solids are perfectly coordinated for the Miles Apart papers and help make crafting easier.

Distance

This is a slider card with flaps that pull from the sides to create a stage with a scene when opened.  I am sure this will bring a smile to to person who slides it open revealing a hug.

The dies used in this card are from Spellbinders brand new “Make A Scene” collection by Becca Feeken.  There are several scenes to make but I choose the window scene overlooking my Maja Design garden.

Happy crafting my friends.  I hope you have a fabulous day.

Hello Maja Design friends.  Today I present a card using on of my favorite Maja Design collections – Little Street Cafe.  I love the rich warm colors of the collection.  They feel joyful.

Take a look at the names of the papers used on the card.  The names even make me feel happy and warm:

Sunshine, Hot Drinks, Feeling Good, Something Sweet

The adorable dog stamp is “Let’s Get Cozy” from Spellbinders.  It was stamped on to watercolor paper and colored with watercolor pencils.  Next, the shaker mix is from Buttons Galore and More.  The stamped sentiment is from Stampendous Puppy Frame stamp set.

Thank you for stopping here.  Happy Crafting.

Hello friends.  Jennifer Snyder here to celebrate dogs.
 Pets are so important in our lives.  They are family members and our best friends so I think it’s important to reach out and celebrate when someone I know adds a pet to the family or has to say farewell.
Today’s cards uses two collections, Miles Apart and a sheet from Holiday in the Alps.  I also used the monochrome solid color sheet from the fabulous coordinating Monochrome collection, Shades of Miles.
Here’s a list of the 12×12 sheets used from the collections:
Miles Apart – Miss you (B side)
Miles Apart – Phone Call
Miles Apart  – Stay Home
Miles Apart – Safe and Sound
Holiday In the Alps – Winter Night
Miss you-bsA phone callStay home-bs
Safe & sound-bsWinter night-bs
I created cards for boy and girl dogs.  No I’m not sure if people care, but I certainly try to be considerate of the owners sensitivity.  If I know the dog is a boy, I’m going to try to be mindful.    That’s just me.
The dies used in the cards today are an old classic die from Spellbinders (Pawing Around – Dog).  Isn’t that a sweet die?
The stamped sentiment is from Stampendous called Puppy Frames.

 

Thanks for stopping here today.  Happy Crafting

Hello crafty friends.  Jennifer Snyder here with love and virtual hugs for everyone.  I think we all needed this new fresh start in the new year and I believe we all need to surround ourselves in crafty love if that helps to relieve stress.

Let Maja Design help with spreading the love through it’s amazing collections.   I used the  “Winter Is Coming” collection for this card as well as the perfectly coordinated companion solid collection, Monochrome Shades of Winter.

The individual papers used from these collections are “A good book”  and  “Dusty Wine” from the solid collection. While the collection may have a winter name, the collection can be used all year round.  Can you tell from looking at my images this is a winter collection?  No way.

The dies used on this card are from Spellbinders Monthly die club and Spellbinders Birthday Sentiments die set.  They look marvelous showcasing the Maja Design papers.

Happy 2021 everyone.  We wish you the very best that 2021 and Maja Design have to offer AND MORE.
