A postcard from Paris

29 May, 2014 - Layouts, Vintage Summer Basics

Hello Maja Design fans and friends!

Larissa here. It´s my turn again to bring you some fresh inspiration! This time I´ve used the adorable Vintage Summer Basics line to create a layout.

Postcard from Paris

I simply adore the gorgeous postcards we can find and cut out from Memories paper. They are just perfect to portray a special memory of an unforgettable trip to remarkable places.

This 12 X 12 inches layout invites you to take a walk at Notre Dame garden with me and my hubby.

Along with Maja Design Vintage Summer Basics paper collection, I adhered a few Webster´s Pages trims. As you can see, my photo was framed with a beautiful Art Noveau Métro (subway) entrance image and a few flowers and butterflies.

I have also cut out some vintage people images taken from “1926” paper and colored them using Copic markers and the Vintage Summer palette. I have added a few mirrored embellishments by Embelliscrap to it along with a shabby chic resin by Prima.

Diecut flowers and lovely wooden tiles, birds and birdcages from Embelliscrap were also part of the decoration.

I hope you´lve enjoyed this layout!

Thank you so much for your visit!

See you soon,

Hello Maja Design fans and friends! Larissa here super excited to share my newest layout with you!

The layout below shows a cozy indoor scenario, just the perfect way to portray the idea of the happiness of our home and loved ones!

Maison du Bonheur

This layout features gorgeous “Vintage Autumn Basics” line by Maja Design. It has number XI paper as a base and gorgeous cutouts taken from a few more papers. Of course – as I adore fussy cutting – I could not resist adding those image of vintage ladies.

Let´s take a closer look so you can see how have I added beautiful to my little delightful room:

I had a lot of fun while decorating this scenario. I have added some trims and blings just to make my table cloth a little more shabby.

And what about the window?

The chipboards used here are from Blue Fern Studios and the blooms are from Prima and Petaloo.

I had also uses dies from Sizzix and Kesi´art and lots of Prima´s gorgeous shabby chic resins.

I hope you´ve enjoyed this layout and leave this blog today inspired to create something meaningful and creative!

Thank you so much for your visit!

Hello Maja Design fans and friends! Larissa here with a new layout to share!

It´s Autumn time in the Southern Hemisphere and here in Brazil where I live the weather is very nice and the light is special!

So, I was inspired to create something using the Walking in the Forest line. I simply could not resist to its colors!

May “layout”

This layout has the Birdsong paper as a base.

I have included a lot of Petaloo´s flowers and a Blue Fern Studios fence chipboard to put it together along with a few cork embellishments by Embelliscrap and shabby chic resins by Prima.

Let´s take a closer look:

I have included a lot of cutouts (butterfly, owl, birdie) taken from the die cut sheet:

and I have used a plain alphabet chipboard to create the title of this layout and have colored it by adding gesso and pigments. How fun!

Finished it up by adding some texture with stamps and jute strings.

I hope you´ve enjoyed this layout!

Thanks for your visit!

“Tempus Fugit” layout

Hello Maja Design fans! Larissa here super excited to share with you my first creation as a member of Maja Design´s Creative Team.

For the special occasion I have done a layout featuring Maja Design´s gorgeous Vintage Autumn Basics line.

Tempus Fugit

I simply love the imageries that make this line so unique! Beatuful ladies,inspiring balloons and clocks. They all give us the idea of how time flies… And that´s why we have to capture those special moments in a scrapbook page, to preserve and cherish them forever….

This layout has the “Vintage Autumn Basics n. I paper” as a base. The design was planned with the help of three tags taken from the “Heritage” paper and a few cutouts from the Vintage Autumn Basics n. IX, XIV and XVI papers (clocks, balloons, flowers, books).

As you can see in the layout´s details, I have put this layout together by arranging three tags and grouping my cutouts, Prima flowers and die cut flowers, in the left side of my page. To add contrast and interest I have added a Mirrored embellishment by Embelliscrap at the opposite side.

I also added a touch of color with the help of blue toned sprays and mists. I´ve also embellished my page with shabby chic resins by Prima Marketing and finished it with a touch of gesso that I previously colored in purple tones.

I hope you´ve enjoyed this layout! Have a wonderful day!
