Maja Design Paper at The Funkie Junkie Boutique

Mummm, yummy!  Just look at this delicious new paper that we just got in the boutique!  I've made a huge investment to bring in a great selection of the wonderful Maja Design papers from Sweden.  This is my first project using them and they are marvelous!

We are kicking off another two-week challenge over at Frilly and Funkie.  This time it's Sue's turn to be our host and her challenge is all amount trying a new fold for a card or other paper crafting project.  I made a swing Z fold card.  Beate Johns ha a fantastic tutorial over at Splitcoast Stampers.  You can find it here.

I seem to be pretty darn hooked on that Strips and Dots Wendy Vecchi stencil, especially when used with Aged Mahogany distress ink.  So I used that and the polka dotted side to give my matting paper a bit of kick.  I roughed up the edges pretty good and sponged them all with Vintage PHoto DI.  I followed the tutorial except I used more layers and consequently it was pretty difficult to cut the swing piece.  If I ever make one again, I'll try to remember to cut down on the layers.

The flower is made from canvas cut with the Mini Tattered Florals M&S dies and stained with Victorian Velvet DS.  The rhinestone button, the copper filigree and the jute ribbon are all from the Funkie Junkie Boutique.
