Good morning! I cannot believe how time flies. I was looking at old photos and found a precious one from several years back. The little lady who celebrated her first birthday just recently celebrated her sixth. *sigh*

Anyway, the layout is made with the gorgeous Vintage Summer Basics collection – a true favourite of mine.

As you can see I have torn the sides of the papers and also curled the tearing a bit.

Here is a close-up of my flower arrangement. I tried to use the colours in the photo.

Old book pages are fabulous to use as a kind of photo mat. I have also added a doily frame underneath.Products used: Maja Design papers: Vintage Summer Basics; 1921 and Minnen/Memories. Other: flowers, vines, old book pages, pearl swirls, alpha stickers, doily frame, gesso

Hi! It is Sunday and here’s a new Maja Design project from me. I have used the fab Vintage Summer Basics collection to create a layout about a vacation a few years back.

As you can see I have used some different masks, mists and texture paste to create the background.

And to create more layers I layered flowers and cheese cloth.

Some more embellishments to go with the flowers – some metal and some pearls. I also toned down the colours of the flowers a bit using some gesso.

Underneath the photos I have used some old book pages and also brick wall chipboards from Blue Fern Studios.

Another picture of the background.

Material used: Maja Design papers: Vintage Summer Basics (1899, 1903), Blue Fern Studios chipboards, gesso, masks, mists, texture paste, flowers, metal sign, pearl swirls, alpha stickers, old book pages, cheese cloth

Good morning! I want to share a bright layout with you. I found an old picture of my kids I just had to scrap. I have used the Vintage Summer Basics collection for my layout.

The chipboards from Blue Fern Studios are just dabbed with white gesso.

And here are some lovely blooms that really brightens up the page.

The background is created by using masks, misting, stamping etc.

More blooms… It seems I can not get enough of them. LOL

And here you see a close up of the paper tearing.

Good morning! Today I have a new project to share. I have played with the Vintage Summer Basics collection.

I added some mixed media to the background – some misting, stamping and masking. And then I did some layering with the fab Maja papers together with the Blue Fern Studios chipboard circle.

The title chipboard and also the chipboard circle are just dabbed with some white gesso.

Here is a close up of the background.

Some gorgeous blooms to lighten up.

And here you see the layering up close.
