Hi dear MajaDesign followers!

It is almost the end of September, which means it’s time to reveal the winner of this month’s Mood Board.
Fall season here at my place on the Globe means shorter days and chilly weather, which gives you the perfect opportunity to just stay inside and enjoy some lovely craftwork. That is what I will be looking forward to now when the Summer officially is over for this time…

A little reminder of what the Mood Board looked like:

Here are the lovely entries for September:

Made by Kristina Peshko from Russia

Made by Marlies van Es from The Netherlnds

Made by Natalie Grantham from the UK

Made by Reetta Heimonen from Finland

And the lucky winner is…

Congratulations Marlies! We think you captured both the colours and the feel of the mood board in a great way ♥

This is Marlies words about her lovely card:
“I was inspired by the colours, the words last of Summer, trees, outdoors and cozy. The two little mice are enjoying the last of the warm Summer days before going into their warm and cozy home.
The papers I used are Walking in the forrest. The image is a stamp I coloured with distress ink. “

Thank you to all the participants! You’ve all done a great job ♥ and we hope to see you back for the October challenge, wich will be published on the 1st of October.

Hello darlings!

Welcome to the Maja blog..! Today it’s time for a new mood board. ♥

MB-January17

This is how we use the mood boards:

Definition mood board – n

[a board used by designers on which samples of various colours and textures are mounted to help in deciding which elements complement each other]

We are using mood boards for our challenges. We truly believe in creativity and art at Maja Design. You are free to interpret the mood boards in any way you’d like. They are supposed to set you in an inspirational mood without too much controlling. We would like you to be inspired by the poems, words and photos. They are not given rules, they are just there as inspiration. However – we highly recommend you to follow the theme.. Feel free to use any Maja papers you’d like as long as they follow the colour scheme.

We will pick a winner and present it here on the blog January 30th.

Have in mind that these challenges are a really great way for us to discover new talents and maybe some future Creative Team members…

How to participate?

♥ Create anything you’ll like – a layout, a card, something altered or maybe a canvas. Use Maja papers primarily! Take a nice picture of it and send it to moodboard@majadesign.nu. We also need to know your full name, address and a phone number. Please specify what collection you would like to win, if you are the lucky one. We will also want to know if you would like it in the size 12*12 or 6*6. Please send us the pictures in the size of 800 pixels on the width. We would be so grateful if you also could change the file name of the photo to your first and last name including your country.

♥ Feel free to send us more than one picture, from different angles or some close-ups – or why not more than one project?

♥ Publish the project/s on your blog (or/and any social media, e.g. Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest) with a link to our site. Please also add the image of the mood board.

♥ Feel free to combine your entry with other challenges.

♥ The winner will be revealed the last Monday each month, at the Maja blog. The winner will be sent one collection by their choice, and also a digital Winner’s Badge to use and brag with.

We need your creation January 26th at the latest.

Thank you & Good luck!

And here is some inspiration from our talented team:
