Le Jardin!


Hello, my friends! I'm delighted to be here with you on this lovely spring day. I this post finds you well and enjoying plenty of time in your craft room.  

I'm hosting today on the Maja Design Blog! As you know, I love every single collection they create. Each is timeless and compliments the other designs beautifully, but the Vintage Basics collections are truly my go-to papers. I simply can't do without them! It seems the perfect time of year to relish the season's exquisite gardens, so I'm sharing this new 'Le Jardin' card crafted from Maja Design's Vintage Summer Basics papers.


I don't believe I've ever used this gorgeous floral pattern before. It's deliciously shabby chic. I don't know how this pattern escaped me for so long, but I'm making it right today.

Each paper is distressed, layered, and stitched to form a base. I'm feeding my addiction to flower making with these blooms that are handcrafted from the paper collection.


The florals are layered over a backdrop of pretty, die cut ovals. A resin timepiece is tucked away in the corner. An abundance of die cut sprigs and leaves are interspersed throughout the bouquet, along with a natural twine bow.


'Le Jardin' is stamped onto design paper, then fussy cut, distressed, and layered. All of the ticket shapes are created using a ticket edge punch.


Maja Design papers are my favorite in all of the world! I can't say it enough. Every other brand of paper in my craft room is completely neglected. All you have to do is work with them once to see and feel the difference. After that you'll never want another brand again. I consider them the luxe line in the world of papercrafting, but priced so you can afford to treat yourself. You can have them on your doorstep just by clicking here for the 'Store Finder' at the top of Maja Design blog.

Thank you so much for joining me today. I send wishes for all things wonderful!
