30 October, 2016 - I Wish, Tags

Hello Maja fans!!!

Mary is up on the blog today and I have a Christmas tag to share with you. This is my first project made with the brand new ”I Wiss” collection and I have to say that I really loved it!!! These papers are simply amazing!!!

I used two papers for my background, the ”I wish those memories will last” and for the second layer the ”I wish for frosty mornings”. I applied modeling paste with a stencil to create some texture. Then, I made some splatters with ”Dark Chocolate Truffle” Lindy’s Stamp Gang mist and some random stamping with a script stamp and ”Coffee” Archival ink .

I heat embossed the title and the ”Corner Sweet Holly” chipboard, which I cut in two pieces, with ”Midnight Bronze” embossing powder and the little birds on it with ”King Midas Gold”. With the same powder I also embossed the ”Flower Chain” chippie. The snowflakes were embossed with two powders, first with ”Silver Moon Turquoise” and then with ”Golder Angel Wings”.

I made a floral frame with a die and the ”I wish for peace and joy” paper and placed it on my cluster under my main flower. A little sisal, colored with the same mist I used before, completed my cluster. Some microbeads and glass glitter and my christmas tag was ready.

All the chipboards used were 2Crafty and the flowers were Prima Marketing.

Papers used:

: I wish those memories will last bs

: I wish for frosty mornings

: I wish for peace and joy

Well, that’s all for today, my friends!

See you again in two weeks!

Tag with a birdcage ♥

Hi there Maja fans! Today I want to show you a tag I made with some of the beautiful Vintage Spring Basics papers. They are just so soft, shabby and vintage looking, and I love it! I have used a 12″ cardboard and two Tim Holtz dies to make it. From the front you can hardly see the 3D-effect of the birdcage, so therefore I have taken some close up photos, so you could have a better idea of how it really looks like from all angles.

For the bird cage I have actually cut out five cages from the die, and one more from the Maja Design Papers to have on the top. The edges are painted with Crackle Paint-Picket Fence, to get the shabby crackle look. On the papers I have also inked the edges with Walnut Stain, to get that old look.

The sentiment on the bottom of the tag is cut out from the paper “Days to remember”. While the flowers are cut out from 1th of May, and the butterfly from 6th of May. I have inked the edges and painted over them with Crackle Paint-Clear Rock Candy.

Under you get a more closer look of some of the details.

I just love the Vintage Spring Basics Collection!
