Hello Maja Friends, it’s Elena here today.a

Fall has come and I feel the necessity for the mature bright and dark colors. That’s why I made a couple of cards inspired by the season.

I used Fika collection  – so cozy and sweet.

Purple , chocolate and green hues remind me about fogs, harvest and Indian summer.

I added some crochet lace and canvas ribbon , just a few flowers.

However to make it look more cozy I made stitching on paper layers.

So when it is chilling outside, it’s a good chance to invite your friend for a cup of tea or coffee.

Hello everyone. I have noticed I started making more baby projects. It seems that my kids grow so fast that I want to stop the time and catch those moments of tiny toes , soft fingertips and so on.

However I have never sewn so many as I do at the moments. I guess some changes are coming.

Today I’ve come to share 2 Photo Frames I made using Vintage  Baby Collection. But they are not ordinary.

They are like accordion and you can put up to 4 pictures inside.

I think it’s a good idea to combine sewing and papercrafting, it makes the projects to be unordinary.

The size of the pages is approximately  6*4,5 inches  ( 15*12 cm), so you can easily use 6*6 paper pad for this kind of frames.
