Welcome dear creative friends!

Winter is just around the corner and although I haven’t been able to develop any winter feelings yet,

I was totally enthusiastic about the new ‘Holiday in the Alps’ collection.

I love the colour combination blue – brown – white,

 optimal for every vintage style but you can also create very natural winter landscapes with it.

 I chose a picture of our Sheltie during a beautiful forest walk last year.

Hello , Lenet here .

Today it’s my turn to give you some inspiration .

I made this layout for you to show you how versatile the Majadesign collections are.

For this autumn-ish layout I used a combination of papers from the Denim and Friends and Denim and Girls collections.

Two of my favorite collections and the mix so well together.  The wood panels are cut out of  the Denim and friends -Wood .

I used a lot of filigree bronze embellishments on this ,  inspired by the  the crown the woman in the picture is wearing .

I added some Rose Triads pure sheen gemstones from Nuvo to give it all some bling and royalty.

The flowers I used are from Prima marketing and 49Market.

All together I’m very happy with the way this Layout turned out.

I hope you like my inspiration for this week hope to see you back next time.

Make sure you come back later to catch some inspiration from the other Maja girls.

 

Beautiful dreamer.

Hello Sweet Maja fans.

Lenet here , and today I bring you this layout . I made this one inspired my the current moodboard challenge.

I build this layout wit several left overs I had in my leftover-box from previous layouts.

Like I mentioned before , I never throw anything away, you never know if you can use it again on an other layout, card , minialbum or any other project.

The only thing you need to do is remember to go thru your leftovers from time to time, don’t forget about them.

Here I have a close up for you. The leaves on the background are made with mask from dusty attic and versamagic jumbo java and hint of pesto.

I also colored some cheesecloth with it to use behind the flowers that are from Prima marketing.

I hope you like this layout I made for your inspiration, there is still time to join the moodboard challenge.

thank you for watching hope to see you back again.

Hello dear Maja friends!

Fall is knocking on our door and this is the most beautiful time for us after this most dryness and heat to go into the forest and enjoy the nature.

I always like to remember our childhood

where we used to play in the woods and look for adventures.

I used some beautiful vintage papers from the ‘Vintage Summer Basic’ collection,

here you can find a lot of various paper sheets in delicate colours, always suitable for a memory layout.

Have you seen our awesome September Moodboard?

These wonderful autumn colours don’t only fit into this season,

they can also inspire to create a vintage project.

Thanks for your visit!

 

Happy crafting!

Hi there Maja Design friends. Tina with you today to share a project created with the newest of collections being the Denim and Girls. This collection is just gorgeous and a perfect match I think for my photo today. This project I have titled “Every story tells a story”.

My background was created with layers of the Denim and Girls patterned papers.

I firstly set out to complete my background for my layout to sit upon. I cut a circle from the centre of Summer Outfit and used the remaining outer framework as my base. I then layered a section of the b side of Lace over this. I did a little tearing of my paper and distressed it very heavily. I then adhered down the circle that I distressed also and added a couple of section of Lovely then my photo which was distressed also.

Once my background was completed I then added a piece of the bs of Roses to the back of a Dusty Attic Vintage Chipboard Frame. I then coloured my frame with Inka Gold and some embossing Shabby Chic colours from my stash. This was adhered to the left side of my photo ensuring that I didn’t cover too much of the photo.

I added in lots of different pieces of laces from my stash. I love to use laces to highlight areas of my projects and also to soften the layout if it needs it. I further embellished my layout using more chipboards and also a good selection of Navy and Blush Pink 49andMarket flowers.

The flowers and the chipboards were all used to help with the layering of my layout.

And from another view of my layout. Here you can see the gorgeous papers holding all these goodies. I only altered the papers a little using some Distress Ink and a postal stamp to add a little more blue to my background. Well that is all I have for you today. I do hope you have enjoyed my project piece.

Until next time take care and happy crafting.
