You Stole my Heart Little Girl

2 June, 2017 - Collections, Layouts, Nyhavn, Vintage Autumn Basics

Goodmorning & happy Friday Maja Fans,

Today I am futuring another picture of one of Camilla her little girls. When I saw this picture I totally fell in love with it and I thought “well” I need to scrap it. For this layout I used the pretty Nyhavn collection and to accent the beauitful papers I added some gorgeous pink Prima Marketing flowers from the Wild and Free collection the black flowers I added are by Petaloo. I am totally hooked on using flairs ate the moment here I also used one from Cuts2luv.

First I cut a large v part out of the lighter colored paper then I stamped around the edges with the stitched stamp designed by Gabrielle Pollacco. Then I added some distressink victorian velvet with a blending tool and added some text and dod stamps to the rest of the background. Then I used two differents stencils for my layout. The chipboard pieces are by Dusty Attic and the are treated with gesso and ink.

On the stripes and dots stencil I added some black flatback gem stones to make it pop of the page, then I added some lace in the v-shape and sprayed all over my page to soften it up a little. At he end i cut out some clocks form the “Vintage Autumn Basics”collection.

At the end I also added some metal embellishments I just can’t live without those things……This was a lot of fun to make as I don’t have a daughter. These pictures make me happy thank you Camilla for using it…..

Maja Design papers used: Nyhavn: Veteran ships, Romantic lunch and Strolling along the Canal.

Thank you so much for stopping by I hope you enjoyed my post today, and I have inspired you to play with your lovely Maja Design goodies have a lovely weekend…..

Enjoying my shoes..

Welcome to the Maja blog today..!

My absolute favorite among the Maja collections has became one of the latest ones – Enjoying Outdoors. I think it’s a really wonderful collection with just the right colours for my taste. I think it’s almost like a combine of Ska Vi Ta En Fika? and Walking in the Forest – two of our most popular collections, so maybe it’s no wonder that I completely have fallen in love with this one.. I would really like to know which of our collections that is your personal favorite? Please tell me in the comment field. 🙂 Who knows, maybe you’ll get the chance to receive some samples from your favorite collection.. 😉

This an altered shoe I made with papers from Enjoying Outdoors. I have a thing for shoes, I always had – so making this project was so much fun! I just love shoes, wearing them and buying new ones – and my husband is crazy with me and really can’t understand my everlasting crush for new ones – even though my stash is already full.. I guess it’s a guy thing, right – because you’ll understand? 😉

I wanted to keep this project quite simple and clean with not to much accessories taking over. First I crumpled and wet the papers and then dried them with an iron, to make it more easy to work with.

Now, I only need to do another one, just like this.. Or maybe I just go with a new colour on the next one, it’s more fun I think. It’s not like I ever is going to wear this shoes anyway so.. 😛 They will have their special place on my shelf.

Thanks for stopping by the blog today! Hope you’ve enjoyed this.

See you soon!
