DT Maja Design ~ Shabby paper bag ♥

 Hi there! I am back with a paper bag that I have decorated, for Maja Design
I have used the Sofiero papers - Royal Summer Recidence and Princess Margareta's Garden
They match perfect together. Like all the papers from the beautiful collection. 
The paper edges are inked with Distress Ink pad - Walnut Stain, and I have sewed them together with the bazzill (Vanilla) with my sewing machine. The paper bag is painted with White Gesso. 
I have added Stickles-Star Dust, Liquid Pearls and Crackle Accents on to the image.
The image is from Magnolia, and is called On the Road Tilda. The small birds are also stamps from Magnolia and are called Little Summer Birds. I have coloured them with Distress Ink, re-inkers and Markers.
I have used flowers from I am Roses, WOC and Prima. The flower berries are from Kort & Godt. The bark heart is from Prima. The metal corner is from WOC, and I have painted it with White Gesso. 
On the edges of the image I have added some Frantage - Shabby White. 
Under you can see the bag from the side. The border punch is from Martha Stewart. 
 I have used fabrics together with the gorgeous papers, like laces, seem binding ribbons and cheese cloth.

DT Maja Design ~ Dåpsinvitasjoner ♥

Hi there! Today I am hosting the Maja blog
This post will be all about our son's invites for his baptism. Here are the cards I made for our guests. I have used the beautiful papers mainly from the Sofiero collection, but also added some from the Vintage Spring Basics collection.
The photo is taken in our bedroom where I had a little photo shoot of Maximilian when he was only two weeks old. I put his lambskin in a small basket, and placed him inside the basket. He uses this lambskin to sleep on. It is so soft and cozy.
The tag is made with a die from Magnolia called So Wrapped Lovely. I have used the paper called The elegant Wine house -bs (Sofiero). On several of the cards I have also used the paper Princess Margareta's Garden (Sofiero). And they all have the base with the paper The magnificent Flowerstreet -bs
The small butterfly on the pennant is cut out from the paper 7th of March (Vintage Spring Basics). The pennent is also cut out of the same paper. I have inked the edges with Walnut Stain (Distress Inkpad), and added some Stickles-Stardust on the tip of the wings. The blue ribbon is a Seem Binding ribbon which I have coloured with a mix of Distress Ink, re-inkers (drops with Weathered Wood, Faded Jeans and some water).
Here is another close up. 
For the castle I have also used the paper 7th of March (Vintage Spring Basics). I have added Frantage on the edges. The roof is made of black bazzill (Raven), with Stickles- Star Dust and some Frantage-Shabby Blue on.
Some flowers, buds and a pin. All from Wild Orchid Crafts. The swirl is made with the die Heart Swirl from Magnolia.
You can read about what I did with the photo HERE.
Here you can see the simple back. The baby text is from Stempelglede.
And the text inside.

MDUC #213 ~ Hearts ♥ (chosen by me)

Hi there!
It is time for a new challenge at MDUC. And this week we want you to use hearts on your Magnolia creation. I have had a small break from MDUC, but had to be back to make a card for this challenge, since it is my choice ♥
I think this Tilda is the cutest! She is called Unsunny Sky Tilda.
She is from Magnolia'Sea Breeze Collction 2013.
There is not much time colouring and making cards these days, but I love it when I can steal a minute or two doing so:) 
I have used Distress Ink, re-inkers and Markers on this image. Mostly the colour Weathered Wood.
As the theme is hearts, I have added my favourite hearts at the moments, the Natural Bark from Prima.
I have also put some pearl hearts from Kort & Godt in the corners.
I have also used the Heart Swirl die from Magnolia.
The flowers are from Prima and are called Frost.
On the edge of the oval I have added Frantage-Shabby White.
The papers are from Maja Design. I have used Princess Margareta's garden and The elegant Wine house, both from the Sofiero collection, and 7th of March from the Vintage Spring Basics Collection. 
You can also view this card in my Magnolia blog
Now it is just to head over to MDUC to have a look at all the beautiful "heart" creations made by my wonderful teammates!!
Thank you so much for visiting my blog,
and for the lovely comments you take the time to write me:)

(If you wonder how the invites for Maximilian's baptism turned out, please come back again tomorrow morning;))
