Birthday Deer Cards by Padoriaa

12 January, 2018 - Cards, Walking in the Forest

Hello our blog fans. Few days ago my friend ask me if I’m able to create a card for someone who know what hunting is . It was a big challenge for me but then I realised about the “Walking in the forest” collection! Fits perfectly ! Couldn’t be better 🙂 Here is my idea. Take a look, please :

I’m really happy to create something different. It was not my comfort zone, definitely ! 🙂 What about you … do you like challenging project to make ? Where are you finding inspiration when your head is full of the same ideas, the same compositions ? Waiting for for each feedback. Hugs, Paulina

Happy New Year everyone….I will be giving some workshops using Maja Design papers this year so that is awesome, for today I have a 12×12 layout to share with you all. For this layout I used the pretty “Joyous Winterdays” collection oh how I love that collection.

This layout consists out of three layers and I used the green and blue shades again I really love that color combination. to fill up my flower clusters I also added some pine cones and some die leaves.

Hello Maja Fans!

It’s Christmas eve my dear friends and I’ve already wrapped all of my presents. I’ve made several cards to accompany them and I though I should share one of them with you.

I choose to use the ”Playful” paper from the ”Joyous Winterdays” collection.

I made a few layers from the same paper using both sides of it to give dimension to my card.

Paper used:

: Playful

: Playful bs

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Merry Christmas

Welcome Maja friends!

I love fireplaces especially on christmas time, it’s a wonderful tradition to hang up socks for every family member. Unfortunately I haven’t a fireplace and so I decided to make this in a small format.

I used papers from various christmas/ winter collections from Maja Design

Want to see how they are made? Here I have some photos from the making.

Steps and tips

As basic an old black wooden frame and the ‘Gnistra’ paper sheet as wonderful neutral background

added with some torned pieces from old music paper, inked with Distress walnut stain

the highlight was the fireplace.

I saw some months ago an idea on Pinterest where a simple plastic frame was used,

I was impressed and went in search for the right frame.

I found this in a One Euro Store, the frame was square

and so I just had to remove the bottom part

really simple, but a cool effect!

some close up’s

some dies with Maja papers – Hanging socks, Holiday leaves

a Santa portrait from ‘Emphera’ Joyous winterdays, as picture in a shabby chic metal frame

christmas wishes from Die cut sheet – A gift for you

I hope you like this christmas inspiration!

If you want more inspirations with Maja Papers

My best wishes for you and your families!
