Theme Collections All the Year Round

Welcome to the blog today, Maja Fans 🙂

It’s Maja here to share two cards with which I mean to prove you can use Maja Design theme collections all the year round 🙂

I love playing with theme papers and use them for other occassions too. Thus you don’t need to put your Christmas papers away for a year in January 🙂 For instance, would you say this wedding card was made using Vintage Winter papers?

But it is! 🙂 I used the brown, red and cream sheets for the gorgeous ornate background:

I stamped some crackles onto the top layer and added a bunch of roses, resin frame and metal butterflies:

Then I added vintage ribbon sprayed with golden mist to match the frame colour:

For the backround bottom layers you can use even theme-patterned papers, details such as snowflakes or Santa Clauses won’t be visible clearly 😉

Supplies: Vintage Winter: Chocolate, December, Season’s Greetings. Other: resin frame: RetroKraft Shop; stamps: Kaisercraft, Lemonade; butterflies: Trimcraft; flowers&leaves, ribbon: from my stash.

But this doesn’t apply to winter/Christmas papers only. This baby boy welcome card is used with the marine papers 🙂

Well, OK, this one is to some extent marine-themed, but I could have omitted the little whale and washi tape and it would look just as ordinary baby boy card, right? 🙂

I layered several stripes and stars design, die-cut the onesie and coloured it with Promarkers to give it some dimension and matted it with a piece of cheesecloth. Can you see those cute tiny button brads? 🙂

I used a piece of paper with the signature stripe visible – aren’t those little elements really useful?

Supplies: Life by the Sea: The East Coast, Marina Hovering bs, Islands and Skerries bs, Regatta bs. Other: dies: Sizzix, Poppy Stamps; brads: Making Memories; washi tape: Dekoracyjna Taśma; charm, cheesecloth, linen string: from my stash.

See you!

Hello Maja friends!! Today is my turn to show you my little paradise that is how I call my scrapbook room. I moved to USA eight months ago and I took the smallest room in our apartment that is near to a big tree full of beautiful birds like cardinals and many other species that are singing all day. For that reason my desk is near to the window and I can see and listen all these beautiful creatures meanwhile I was creating my pages, it is like a paradise for me…priceless!! My room in not a gorgeous or fancy place, it is only 10 x 10 room that is very practical and functional for me. Let’s get started with the tour…

Here’s how it looks from the door. To the left you see my work area (desk), the double white doors in the back is the closet. In the right side you see my sewing machine and “Juanita” that is how I called my dress form, lol.

Up front you’ll see my complete work area, in the left you see my photo printer and under it a drawer where I keep my cardstocks and papers. I will tell you a secret…how much do you think I paid for this desk…? I paid twenty five dollars for it in a Goodwill Stores…awesome! I left most of my scrapbooking furniture in Puerto Rico and I only brought a few thing. I had to buy almost everything again so I was looking for good bargains. So I was happy with this buy. In the bottom right is my baby boy “Sponky” he is a 14 year old dog..always beside me.

In these small drawers I organize my Liquid Pearls, Stickers, gelatos, Chalk inks, etc..

In the top of the desk, I have plastic jars with flowers, ribbon, laces, pearls. I also have my works and some gifts like the beautiful cards that Ingrid Gooyer and Maritza Valdez sent me from my Birthday. The things I used the most you see them on the shelf.

Behind the small door you will find my stencils, alphas, mesh tape,doily papers and stamps.

I bought this rolling organizer at Michael’s and it’s perfect for my paints, mediums and mists.

My hubby put hooks under the desk and I can hang my heat tool and glue in this way, which is very practical.

When you open the double doors that is what you find. I design for different companies and here is where I keep all their products in plastic organizers and in white boxes. Each company has their own plastic box and I organizer by collection, embellishments, etc. I also keep here my Cricut machine and Cutttlebug.

This is the view from the window. I bought this industrial sewing machine before I started to study Fashion Designer, twenty seven years ago. The big furniture was a gift from my mom and I brought it from Puerto Rico.

This is the place where I keep my laces, sewing notions, stamps, different tools.

The drawers…one for my threads and the other for my punches. I keep my laces in plastic boxes.

My die cuts, embossing folders are in this plastic containers from Dollar Tree.

In this corner you will find flowers, flowers and more flowers…

These baskets are full only of Prima flowers and embellishments.

One drawer is for my buttons, other for more flowers, other for my pearls….

Stamps and dies

Metals, buttons and chipboard. You see I have everything organized without spent a fortune. I hope you enjoyed my scrapbook room tour…Thank you so much for your visit!!

Hello,today I am here to share with a few projects, I did a couple extra,as my son’s wanted me to Scrap for a wedding they were attending. Here is the first one using a photo of my oldest son getting lots of Butterfly Kisses……

I used the Vintage Spring Basics Collection….

The chipboard used is from Dusty Attic,the Butterflies are from LittleScrapShop & the flowers are Prima & Petaloo

Here are some closeups of detail…..

Shows distressed,hand stitched layers & a flower cluster using prima roses,petaloo flowers & Angelica’s beautiful butterfly…..

I used TH Vintage Photo Stain on all the chipboard,then inked the edges using a dark brown ink pad….

My dogs are Papillon’s (butterflys),so that is where I came up with the title,as you can see that my oldest son is getting lots of butterfly kisses…

I glued some seed beads in the film strip…

Here is my next project,a canvas using the Vintage Summer Basics Collection

I used 1912,1915,&1891. The chipboard used is from Dusty Attic,the flowers are Petaloo & Prima,the metal is from Prima & Websters. Here are some closeups of detail….

I did some distressed hand stitched layers & some stencil work using The Crafter Workshop Art is & Viva Modelling cream….

I stained all the chipboard with TH distress stain (tea dye & Vintage photo),then applied a coat of rock candy crackle.Once that dried I dried brushed on some white paint,& rubbed it in using my fingers. I used picket fence crackle on the feathers & chestnut liquid pearls on the dangling part of the dream catcher.

Now for the fun part,embellishing the dream catcher. I did some stencil work behind it,wrapped some prima wire thread around the circle part. I then finished embellishing it using,seed beads,beads,bottle cap,jump rings & flower clusters. I love both of the DA dream catchers,so much fun to work with….

This is my next project,using the CreaDiem Collection. My middle son was a grooms man,this past weekend & bought a bottle of Dom Perignon Champagne,for a gift. He asked me to scrapbook the box,so this is how it turned out…

The chipboard used is from Dusty Attic,Butterflies,flowers & stick pins are from LittleScrapShop. Here are some closeups of detail….

I used something old & something new on the box,some of the rub ons,stickers & the hearts used in the cluster have been sitting in my room for years.The box the champagne came in is black,so that is why I decided to use this collection.Here are some closeups of detail….

Of course,because I did the altered box for DD,I had to make a wedding card for Tandri,as he was attending the same wedding. I used the Fika Collection….
