A little of Spring…

31 March, 2014 - Layouts, Vintage Spring Basics

Happy Monday Maja friends!! Marilyn is here to share with you this spring page about my dear daughter Paola that I made using one of my favorite collection…Vintage Spring Basics. My inspiration was a full pleated skirt that I made a time ago and I created the same effect here with the Maja Design papers .

I cut the tags, butterflies and my tittle from the ” Days to Remember” paper.

I tie the tag with a jute and added a cheesecloth around the flowers.

I love these butterflies, they are in the 6th of May and Day to Remember papers.

Supplies: Days to Remember, 4th, 6th and 7th of May papers from Vintage Spring Basics, Prima flowers, Martha Steward border punch, acrylic paints, gesso.

Until next time!

Happy Monday!! It’s Marilyn here today and I will share with you a tag that I made using the beautiful Crea Diem collection…

I worked with the Av hela mitt hjärta and the Kärleken-bs papers from the Crea Diem collection in my tag.

I added some gesso and molding paste in the background using a stencil then I draped the paper to create dimension.

The quote translates to… “If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus one day. So I never have to live without you” Winnie the Pooh

Supplies: Kärleken-bs, Av hela mitt hjärta by Crea Diem Collection, Prima flower, Latina Crafter – Spanish stamp, Prima lace, Liquitex gesso
