Babushka!

This has to be one of my favourite themes to design...

Craftseller Issue 53 had a Russian doll theme throughout the mag including some fun colourful papers I designed on a folky theme. I loved designing the windmills pattern, this is something I'd never been briefed to design before so a great new challenge, and the Babushka dolls card they designed using my papers looked super cute!

Issue 138 Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine also went down the Russian theme route with pretty domes, folk florals and dolls. These papers are still available to download here to make your own pretty cards!
