Hello Sweet Maja fans, Lenet here and today I bring you this layoout I made using the absolutely gorgeous papers of the Miles Apart collection.

I took  3 differend papers and tear the sides . this way I created 3 differend sizes and layered them together.

 

the chippies I used are from Scrapa holics and I colored them with acrylicpaint

and gave them a top layer with clear embossing powder to give the color a little extra depth

the flowers I used are from prima and scrapaholics . I made some little dots with nuvo dream dots to finish everything off.

I hope you like my layout , stay safe and take care.

Hope to see you back soon.

Dream Big, Little One

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!

Live in the moment

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.

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!

Today was Just Adorable

Hello lovely Maja Design friends,

Happy 1st of August I am so grateful you are here with us today, for today I have another layout to share with you. Lately I really love to use a little mixed media on my layouts like combining the very romantic stuff with a darker twist to it. This time I made all the beautiful chipboard pieces black which I later on painted to my likes. For this layout I used a picture of both our kids {Kevin & Abbey} Kevin was reading a book and I thought it was so sweet that I took a picture. 

Today was Just Adorable:

All the pretty chipboard are treated with a layer of black gesso. Then I used several waxes and a dabber brush to make it look like real metal. In the end I added some color with acrylic paints to match my beautiful Maja Design papers. For my layout I have used the “Miles Apart” collection and a new mould to frame my sweet picture with. For the background I have used a stencil and some sprays.

Maja Design papers used:

 

Thank you so much for your visit today. And I sure hope that I have inspired you to take out your lovely Maja Design papers and create and have fun while doing so. Have a blessed & sunny week!

Hugs
