Maja Design's February Mood Board Challenge!

 

It's that time again! I know I mentioned that the new Maja Moodboard is posted the first Tuesday of every month but I have to correct that, since the beginning of the new year it is now the firs SATURDAY of the month.  That being said here is the gorgeous Moodboard for February!...

 

 

 I love that the moodboard for February is not your typical  pink/red/white color combination (although I do love to scrap pink)...this mood board has such lovely shades of violet/purple/plums with some beautiful neutrals.  The moodboard is based on colors in the 'Ska vi ta en Fika?' collection.

I used mostly papers from the above collectin but added a little bit in from the Vintage Spring Basics collection as well (striped background for the card) and a little bit of Vintage Autumn Basics (clocks).

 

The roses I used on this card are from an old package of Prima flowers I had in my stash, mixed with small white roses from Dusty Attic Designs.  The vine flourish design was cut from Maja papers using the Cheery Lynn Fanciful Flourish die cut.

 

I created a shabby-chic frame design for my card title with a Dusty Attic Design frame and some white pearl 3D paint (I used Scribbles brand found in the T-shirt section of Michaels Craft Shop).

 

 

Here is an even closer view of the frame.  I usually like to machine stitch on my cards but I ran out of the heavy duty upholstery thread I ususally use for stitching on my cards and layouts, so I had to cheat and draw on the stitch design with a brown pen.

 

Maja Design papers used on this project:

~ Ska vi ta en Fika (Favoriter, Blommor på bordet, Våffla m björnbärssylt-bs, Söders höjder - bs)
