You are my Favourite card AND GIVEAWAY!!


Hello and Happy Wednesday! I hope this day finds you well and having some cozy crafting time. 

I'm super excited  for two reasons. The first is that I just received Maja Design's brand new paper collection, Denim & Girls! From the moment I laid eyes upon it I knew it was an instant favorite, and I'm thrilled to be sharing this new card created from this beautiful collection on the Maja Design Blog

The second reason I'm so excited is that I'm hosting a GIVEAWAY for the next two weeks! The winner will receive an entire collection of their choice of Maja Design papers!! All you need to do to enter is be a follower on my blog and leave a comment at the bottom of this post saying what you love best about Maja Design papers. At the end of two weeks I'll choose the winner using Random Number Generator, and Maja Design will get your paper collection in the mail and speeding towards your front porch.  


This is actually going to be my granddaughter's birthday card. In our family we have what we call 'the circle of favorites' which includes every one of us. When the grandchildren come to visit the first thing I hear as the door opens is, "your favorites are here!", and I run to them with hugs and kisses saying, "my favorites are here!" Needless to say, the sentiment 'favourite' that I found in the paper collection is ideal for Savannah's card.   


The flowers are handcrafted using Monochromes Shades of Denim for a perfectly coordinated embellishment.


Below is a little peek at the inside of the card.

The tiny paper flowers are fussy cut from the collection. The finishing touch is a twine bow adding the frilly finish I love.


Thank you so much for visiting the blog today! It's such an honor to be here with you. I wish everyone a week filled with sunshine and happy moments! Don't forget to leave your comment to enter into the giveaway!

Hugs,

    The Maya papers are my favorite! I love the colors, the gorgeous romantic designs and they are strong papers. They are for me the best to create lovely card or for decorating boxes.
    I love watching the Maja blog for inspiration.

  3. Beautil card, I bet your grand daughter will be happy with it. I love the Maja Design papers because they are made of good quality paper, the vintage/shabby chic patterns, but mostly how you can combine the different collections.
    Have a great day

  6. I love the beautiful card and the collection of papers. It reminds me of some of my favorite fabrics I’ve used in some of my quilts. It’s soft and sweet, from a time time long ago without cares, with swings on the front porch and sweet tea..
    The colors are sweet and romantic.

    1. Hi, Chrissy!
      Thank you so much for your kind words! Sorry to be so long in replying, but I broke my shoulder and had surgery, so I wasn’t able to monitor my blog for many months. You can find the rose tutorial here: http://mytatteredtreasures.blogspot.com/2014/10/blooming-rose-tutorial_28.html?m=1
      They are very easy. To insert the stems I put a small hole in the middle of each petal and pull them through before applying adhesive. Thank you again and have a beautiful day!
      Nancy
