From the Heart


Hello, and welcome! How are you doing today? I'm so happy you're here! I couldn't be more thrilled to be here with you.

It's my honor to be posting on the Maja Design Blog today, and while looking through my recent projects, I realized it's been a very long time since I've used one of my favorite collections, Vintage Autumn Basics. The beautiful purples and mauves from this lovely collection always call to me, and are the inspiration for my card.

The papers are so versatile that twine is the only embellishment that is not created from the collection.



The roses and leaves are handmade using design paper. I hope to have a new rose tutorial ready for you on my next post. I meant to have it for you today, but because we have the flu in our home the smallest things (like editing photos) seem insurmountable.  Happily, we are all recovering, so a tutorial will be following shortly.



The layered heart is die cut from design paper, then stitched on the sewing machine and fanned out to create dimension.



The vintage image, sentiment, and flourishes are also from the paper collection. You can see how easy it is to create a card filled with coordinating embellishments with nothing except a pack of Maja Design papers!


A twirly twine bow adds a final frilly touch.

Thank you so much for stopping in! If you're interested in snagging this paper collection (or any of the other gorgeous papers!) for yourself, just click on this STORE FINDER tab, and be magically transported to an online store near you. I hope you're staying healthy through this cold and flu season, and that you have a day filled with sunshine and wondrously joyful moments!

Hugs,
