Calendar for a boy.

29 June, 2017 - Altered Items, Vintage Baby

Hello our blog fans. Today I would like to show you something a little bit different. It is a calendar/notebook for a little gentleman to write down his first words, add his first drawings. It will be a place to capture the moments, memories and a keep it until he’s teenager.

I bought a simple base and decorated the cover. You will not see here the flowers cause my idea was to keep it as simple as possible. This project will be use for the next year and I hope it will survive. When it’s full I will create next one. I just felt in love with the idea.

I used the paper from the Vintage Baby Collection. The colours and design is just perfect for a boy 🙂

Hope you will like my idea. Here is the paper used to create this project :

Hello our blog fans. Today I would like to present a gift set. Spring is in the air – definitely ! I made this project inspired by the view outside my windows. Take a look, please :

I started to create my project by choosing a perfect paper. Colourful and sweet 🙂

This time my notebook is simple. Without the flowers and many add-ons on the top it’s easier to carry and use every day.

Hope you like my project. If you have any question – do not hesitate, just ask me 🙂 Have a lovely day, Paulina

A Girl’s Diary

Good morning, Maja Design friends, welcome to the blog today 🙂

With November coming to an end, I think it’s time to think of Christmas presents, especially if you intend making them yourselves. And so today I have a girly diary to share.

As the little lady, who will be writing her secrets in this notebook, likes purples, I chose to work with the Ska Vi Ta En Fika? collection with a bit of the Vintage Spring Basics set, which offered both cold and warm shades of purple, paired with browns and greens too. And so I adapted the same palette for the diary. I layered some papers on the front cover:

…added a ribbon bow and a butterfly charm on the wire:

…and decorated the front with a stamped and hand-coloured image:

On the inner cover, I added the girl’s monogram in a decorative heart on the background of the butterfly and plaid patterns:

There’s also a bonus stamped image at the back of the diary:

…and a little envelope to put in special secrets 🙂

I hope the girl would like her secret diary 🙂

And here’s what I used to make it:

Papers: Ska Vi Ta En Fika?: Nybakat, Chaite, Mandelkaka, Lejas café; Vintage Spring Basics: 11th of April BS, 9th of April BS. Other: stamps: Magnolia, Basic Grey; ribbon, twine: Rayher, charm, plate: my stash.

Have you started making your Christmas gifts yet?
