Good morning, Maja Friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

For a couple of years newborn photoshoots have been immensely popular and no wonder they have – babies grow up so fast and we have just a couple of weeks to take such photos, which makes them even more precious. I regret that when my kids were born such photoshoots were rare, but it makes me so happy when I have a chance to scrapbook a photo of such a tiny human being 🙂 Here’s one such layout I made:

I used a mixture of collections to match the blue shades of the photo, and combined it with soft beige and gold for a delicate baby layout.

First, I applied the stars pattern upon the background paper using a stencil, and when the pearl paste was dry, I added gold metallic stars over some of the stars:

I arranged the title by mixing chipboard letters with a piece of a signature strip from one of the papers:

I used some more pieces from signature strips as a kind of journaling:

…or as a decorative border across the page 🙂

To finish the layout off, I used scraps of various papers to make a banner garland under the photo:

I really love the way the layout turned out, soft and gentle like the baby sleeping in the photo 🙂

And here’s what I used:

Maja Design papers:

Other: stencil, stamps, embossing powder, chipboard: Agateria; flowers: Prima, Wild Orchid Crafts; star punch: DpCraft

 

That’s all for today, thank you for visiting and see you soon!

Here summer is comming to an end and the days are getting shorter.

We had a very warm and dry summer. We had some rain last week but it’s nearly enough to fill up the reserves again.

So hopefully we get som more rain soon good for nature and perfect weather to do some scrapbooking.

 

this collection has some very nice papers  for fuzzy cutting and thos beautiful sunflowers I used are some of them.are some of them.

The chipboards I used are from Scrapaholics.

 

I love the strips at the bottom of the papers , the have nice  quotes , sentiments or are just beautiful decorated.

You can use them in your work like I did in this layout , so no waste of precious paper.

I hope you like this layou out and that it gives you some inspiration.

Thank you for visiting and see you back soon.

Autumn Wedding Card

Good morning, Maja Friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

It seems that summer has come to an end in Poland, with days getting visibly shorter and the air cooler with more and more rain… So perhaps it’s time to get into the autumn mood with the beautiful Bohemian Harmony collection that I used to make a wedding card:

I took inspiration for embellishing the card from the papers themselves: I recreated the flower cluster from the flower bouquets paper with flowers in matching colours and die-cut and chipboard leaves and twigs:

… and repeated the circle pattern of the background paper with a doily motif applied with white texture paste and a stencil in two corners of the card:

I mounted the paper layers on foam dots to make the card more dimensional:

 

And here’s what I used for my card:

Maja Design papers:

Other: flowers: Prima Marketing, Wild Orchid Crafts; stencil, chipboard pieces: Agateria; dies: Memory Box, Marianne Design, Spellbinders; gems: Prima Marketing.

 

I think the Bohemian Harmony collection is perfect for the late-summer and early-autumn projects, with its warm colours and soft patterns! What do you think?

That’s all for today, thank you for visiting and see you soon!

Greetings friends.  Jennifer Snyder here sharing a card created with Maja Design’s amazing collection, “Traditional Christmas”.  This is a vintage style camper coffee/cocoa food truck.

This card actually uses a combination of the 12×12 and 6×6 paper pads.  I preferred the smaller designs found on the 6×6 papers for the tiny die cut detail work.

Here is what the collection looks like:

The papers used from this collection are: “Family Gathering”, “Beautifully Decorated” , “by the Fireplace”.

 Beautifully decorated-bsFamily gathering

By the fireplace

The die set is from Spellbinders, to help kick off some Christmas holiday card making ideas.

 

Enjoy the rest of summer! But I want you to know it’s still OK to think about Christmas card making.

Good morning, dear Maja Friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

In the middle of summer I bring you a bright and cheerful layout filled with sunflowers – a symbol of the season:

I chose the background paper that perfectly matches the photo’s theme – bike riding in summer 🙂 I matted the photo with a bike-pattern sheet from the small pad of papers and then surrounded it with cut-out images and hand-cut tags, completing the cluster with dimensional flowers and sequins:

For the title I used one of the cut-out images and a piece of signature strip mounted on foam dots for more texture and dimension:

As the title of the collection suggests, it’s about celebrating simple moments and everyday life. When you find beauty and joy in ordinary things, your life is special all the time 🙂

And here’s my list of supplies:

Maja Design papers:

Other: flowers: Blue Fern Studios; sequins, waxed string: my stash.

That’s all for today, thank you for visiting and see you soon!
