Good morning friends and followers!
I have been MIA for the past week. Things have been crazy, so my apologies for not blogging a single card or finding the time to visit your blogs or commenting. I think things have calmed down a little now, so hopefully I will have the time for my favorite hobby, on- and offline:)
This week we are showcasing the gorgeous Maja Design Papers over at the Live & Love Craft Challenge and Inspiration blog. Stop by to see what the rest of the talented ladies of the DT have created for you this week!
Maja Design is one of my absolute favorite design papers, and the "Shall we have coffee" collection is no exception. Sandy sent me some of the papers in my DT package, and as soon as i put my eyes on them I had to order the rest of the collection! I simply love the colors and the patterns.
Here is my card for you:
I used Havrerutor (Oat Coocies), Karleksmums (Chocolate Coconut Squares ) and Kladdkaka (Sticky Chocolate Cake ) papers from the Maja Design. I used Magnolia Doohickey's dies to cut out the hart from sheet music. I used a Martha Steward punch and the sentiment stamp is from Ett Trykk. I stamped around the edges of the image with a Stempelglede swirl and I distressed the edges with Tim Holtz distress ink- vintage photo.
The image is the Ballerina Tilda from Magnolia. I made the wooden floor and walls with my Copics. The wooden floor is inspired by the very talented Mindy (I once took an online class of hers and I learned so much about coloring with copics!).
Copics used:
Skin: E13-11-00-000
Hair: E30-31-70-71-74-77
Dress: E70-71-74-77
Floor: E30-31-33-35-37-47-49
Walls and shadow: C00-1-3-5
The embelisshements are the beautiful pearl center from Maya Road, it's called Vintage findings- Pearl Center, dark chocolate Vintage Pearl Pins, and the antique style G Clef charm. I used flowers from WOC and Kort og Godt.
The gorgeous ribbons are the oyster creme Rhinestone Lace, the Lace Antique Belle, and the Brown Organza Roses Trim. I also used the antique cream Shabby Seam Binding.
All I needed to decorate the inside was the gorgeous papers!
Hope you like it!
