Vintage Baby : MajaDesign

Welcoming the New

3 January, 2018 - Cards, Vintage Baby

Good morning, dear Maja friends!

I’m so happy to welcome you again as a Maja Design Team member! It truly feels like a family, here and it’s an honour and privilege to be able to inspire you one more term!

A new year marks a new beginning, a fresh start – and so I thought a set of welcome baby cards would be a perfect fit for the first post in the new year 🙂 And here they are: for a girl and boy:

I used sweet pastels and delicate design of the Vintage Baby collection.

Both cards have the same design: I layered square pieces of papers as the background for a die cut cute giraffe put together from pieces of various papers. I must admit I had great fun with putting those tiny bits together 🙂

I also added pieces of lace and velvet ribbon and balloons cut out from one of the papers, as well as liquid pearls drops to give the background some texture:

The cards are quite dimensional, so I also assembled boxes for them, each decorated with washi tape:

Ande here’s the list of my supplies:

Maja Design papers:

: Expecting

: Welcome little one

: Our little miracle

: Precious – bs

: Newborn

Other: dies: Marianne Design, APS Craft; stamp: Lemonade, brads: Dovecraft; crystal drops: Marianne Design; lace, ribbon: my stash.

I wish you a happy and creative 2018! And I do hope you’d come and visit our blog often to find a lot of inspiration 🙂

Goodmorning Maja Fans,

Autumn is upon us again and here where I live the weather is showing us all the beauty of it! Falling leaves and changing colors but also my least favorite part, the heavy wind and the rainy days. Today is a day like that and I’d love to stay in bed under the warm covers….but I have to go to work in a while! This time I’d like to share a Autumn card with you using all dies and my beautiful Maja Papers. For this card I used different collections but mostly “Walking in the Forest”! All the dies I used where cut out a couple of weeks back but I never used them. I am hooked on leaf dies because you can use them for every occasion and this time it’s a Autumn card. It was really hard to take a picture because it is very windy and I take all my pictures outside….and my card almost flew away…..glad it didn’t though.

This card was made out of leftovers it’s so much fun to sometimes dig into your stash and see what you can make with it. I had leftover papers from both of my paper design teams and every once in a while my neighbor gets all my cut out papers to make Christmas cards and all sorts of other cards and projects. Because I am fortuned enough to be on these amazing paper companies that I’d like to share some of that fortune 😉

Maja Design papers used: Walking in the Forest: colours of fall, fresh air, die cut sheet, die cut letters and jeans. Vintage Baby: Die cuts bs for the flower. Monochromes shades of denim: Mono Denim Light blue & Vintage Autumn Basics: no.VII & no. VII bs.

Thank you so much for your visit today I sure hope I have inspired you to play with your amazing products you have in you stash or even order new products I have used here.

Have a wonderful week!

Good morning, Maja friends, welcome to the blog 🙂

Today I have a sweet baby layout to share with you:

I combined the Vintage Frost and Vintage baby collections to create a delicate girly layout with my sweet niece. I created a layered background placing a square in the centre of the striped paper and adding a punched decorative square on top. Then I added a die-cut doily as a decorative corner between the photos:

I matted the photos with papers and tags from the Ephemera sheet, and then adde a couple of balloons I cut out from the New Arrival paper:

The flower cluster includes paper straws with metallic foil patterns and gold metallic drops:

I made the title with foam sticker letters, embellishing the letter “a” with a molded angel wing and added a signature strip from one of the papers as a decorative border:

As a cherry on top, I stamped “You are perfect” in the lower corner.

I really love how the papers and patterns compliment the cute photos of the baby girl 🙂 What do you think?

And here’s the list of supplies:

Maja Design papers:

: 7th of December

: Ephemera cards

: 2th of December BS

: 6th of December

: 5th of December

Other: letters: American Crafts; flowers: Prima, Wild Orchid Crafts, my stash; die: Prima; punch: Martha Stewart, mold: Prosvet; stam: ScrapBerry’s; paper straws, gold drops: mys stash.

See you later!

Hello dear friends! Evgenia Petzer with you. Today I am showing you the mini album, I have actually put it inside of this box and we gave it as a present to my son’s teacher. As she became a grandmother not so long ago. I think she was really nicely surprised and this makes me happy, thats what our hobby is about as well, right?

Ok this is a mini album on tags, that I made using Tim Holtz dies and always use my leftovers from other projects, so you will see a mixture of some collections here, but they most are of pink shades:)

the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, lots of ribbons, pearls and chipboard (Russian brand).

Inside the baby album I have put the images from the Sofiero collection for now, later they will be replaced by th photos of the baby girl.

here is the side view of my album:)I have used bits and pieces of left overs, but mostly its these 2 collections

Sofiero Vintage Baby

and these 2 separate sheets that I highly recommend, the balloons are one of my fav for fussy cutting and the Sofiero images are just perfect for so many occasions.

Have a great weekend, ladies!

Hugs,

Sweet Baby Boy

Goodmorning lovelies,

Today I am up on this lovely blog using my precious Maja Design papers. In my last post I added some questions and I will give you those answers in my August 11th post, the same as I give you my tutorial that day. Sorry for that but I had to deal with some serious personal issues so I have not been scrapbooking as much as I wanted to. Today we will be leaving for our well deserved vacation trip for the next seven day we will be enjoying each others company at a camping ground in the south of our little country we are very excited as you can imagine…, for this post I made a 8×8 layout using only Maja Design papers, dies and a flair.

That sweet picture I got from pinterest oh boy how I love that site…here I used several Maja Design collection such as Vintage Autumn Basics, Vintage Baby, I Wish and Vintage Summer Basics. The centers of my big flowers are made with foamballs that I glued on and dipped in mini prills such a lovely effect that has.

On the background I added some spray’s, stamp and paste. But I also stamped the word sweet on the picture I really do love Gabi her word stamps. What I do when making a layout with just paper and dies….firstly I will cut all the dies that I want to use in different colors then I will make the flowers and their centers and put those together.

Then I it is really easy to make it into one whole piece that you like. At the moment I am totally hooked on the amazing flairs by Cuts2luv that I will use it on almost every single project I make. I wetted my papers to disstress is a little more at the edges I also inked the edges first before I did that.

Thank you for visiting the blog today and I would like to wish you all a wonderful weekend, vacation time and so much more. Hopefully I will see to back on my next post 😉

Love
