I think a wonderful new beginning is moving into a new home and, as some friends of mine are doing just that soon, I made a card for them.
Lots of paper layers and all from Maja Design.
Made the clock flairs myself using a free printable image from the net. Simple cut them out, layered them on a scrap piece of chipboard and covered them with Glossy Accents.
This gorgeous bloom was gifted to me from my dear friend Heather Jacob. Layered it over a chippie piece from 2Crafty Chipboard and added some die cut leaves and a twine bow.
The greeting was printed from my computer.
So, this is my contribution to the New Beginnings Challenge

Congratulations on being on the team. This card is gorgeous Margaret, love the close up photos showing all the amazing layers. Perfect chippie elements and a wonderful new beginning, moving into a new home. x
ReplyDeleteSoooo fabulous that you're on the team! You're having fun with your faux flair clocks, I see:) looove the chippy window tucked in there - & that sentiment is really neat!!!! What a corker of a card to start with.... now you gotta keep up the high standard, giggles;)!!!!
ReplyDeleteWell done on your new team Marg, your first card is wonderful.. love the layers and the bloom and love the window frame too.. and a new home sure is new beginnings! I hope you are having a good week.. we are heading into extremely hot days for the rest of the week.. not looking forward to that...
ReplyDeleteBig congratulations to you Margaret. They are so lucky to have you on their team as a source of inspiration, wishing you all the best on this new leg of your crafty journey! Your debut card is just fantastic! I love the blue tones with the black and natural accents, such a lovely muted palette. Always so many wonderful distressed layers, perfectly arranged and full of dimension! Your big blossom is a fantastic eye grabber, and the banner sentiment is nested in here just right! You've really knocked it out of the park again my friend! hugs :)
ReplyDeleteA wonderful way to begin your journey with Crafty Cardmakers. The theme is universal, so should appeal to lots of card makers. I love the colours and am a huge fan of Maja as well as your style, so this is a winner for me. Gorgeous work with the symbolism of the window too. Congratulations on your DT gig. TFS
