A very good morning to you, Maja Fans! 🙂 It’s Maja here to share a somewhat philosophical layout 😉

Alas, my dear friends, tempus fugit… Christmas was only like yesterday, and here we are, a day after Easter, waiting for summer holidays. It seems to me the older I get, the faster time flies! But there is something we can do about that – just seize the moment and cherish your memories 🙂 And so I decided to create this page about time:

I thought of a “clocky” design, using various clock faces as elements of my composition. First I prepared the background: I trimmed the No. XIX paper from the Autumn Vintage Basics collestion, distressed the edges and layered it over the 13th of December sheet from the Vintage Frost Basics collection (I love how those stripes correspond with one another!). Then, using a Prima mask and white gesso, I added some “brickwall” textured pattern:

I adopted the printed page title for my title as well, adding pearls and the year 2014 in Roman numerals:

Using chipboard clock faces as frames, I arranged my boys’ mini photos:

And then just started to fill in the “bubbly” design with flowers and clock faces cut out from papers (those I additionally inked with Faded Jeans, Vintage Photo and Walnut STain Distress inks) or metal charms:

I just love using the signature strips 🙂 Here they serve as journaling comments:

And finally I used my favourite wing stamp by Stampers Anonymous – the image is so perfect! I stamped it, inked them, cut them out and covered with glitter:

And so, even though time flies, we an always go back to our favourite memories 🙂
