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

Before I get into the Christmas mood with the latest Christmas Wonderland collection, let me share one more purely autumn project 🙂 Here’s the card I made with the absolutely beautiful Autumn Poem collection:

There are so many great patterns in this set that I really couldn’t make up my mind! Finally I chose the plaid paper that showcases all the colours of the palette and the handwriting paper for the background. Then I added a sentiment stamped upon striped paper:

I put in an initial so that the card can be given to a person whose name begins with “A” (fun fact: number one female name in Poland is “Anne” – more than a million 🙂 What’s number one in your country?). Under the letter I placed a beautiful autumn bouquet image from the small pad of papers:

I decorated the card with stamped and hand-coloured images of autumn fruit and leaves and completed the cluster with leaves cut out from the  back side of the large pad cover. To finish the card off I added pearls and sequins:

I’m really glad with the way the card turned out: filled with the colours of autumn, heartwarming and cozy 🙂 Also, despite many layers, the card easily goes into an envelope!

And here’s the list of the products I used:

Maja Design papers:

Other: stamps: Agateria; die: Magnolia; sequins, pearls: my stash.

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

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

I’m sure you’ve already seen the latest release by Maja Design – two gorgeous collections, Autumn Poem and Christmas Wonderland 🙂 I’m so happy to have them both arrive safely and I can tell you: they are even more gorgeous in real life! 😀 And I cut them both the same day they came! So without further ado let me share a wedding card I made using the colourful, romantic and warm Autumn Poem collection:

I really love the soft colours and subtle patterns of this colelction! I chose three papers for the background, distressed the edges and layered them. But to include even more patterns, I hand-cut mini tags and included them in the flower cluster:

The flower cluster is built around a beautiful flourish chipboard frame with gold wedding rings inside. The flowers repeat the colour palette of the papers. I completed the cluster with delicate lace, shiffon ribbon and glitter sequins:

The card is quite dimensional, so it requires a box:

Here’s the list of what I used to make the card:

Maja Design papers:

Other: flowers: Prima, Wild Orchid Crafts; chipboard: Miszmasz Papierowy; die: CreaLies; lace, ribbon, sequins, rings: my stash.
