Maja Design April Mood Board

Hi, today I have the gorgeous new Maja Design mood board to share with you.

I love these amazing spring colours, so I used my favourite collection - Vintage Spring Basics

Here is the layout I made with this Mood board for inspiration.

The papers I used are :  3rd of March, 3rd of May,  4th of May and 6th of May from the Vintage Spring Basics Collection. 

I started this layout but cutting the paper 3rd of March in half diagonally and glued it onto the 3rd of May paper. I used two different stencils, one with modeling paste and the other with Gelatos. 

All the chipboard is from Blue Fern Studios and is covered with the Blue Fern Studios embossing powder in Snow.  

Finally I layered on my flowers, resin, lace and buttons. 

I made the little butterflies by cutting the images out of the 6th of May paper, I added glitter to the wings and liquid pearls to the centre. 

Thanks for Visiting

Be sure to head to the Maja Design blog to find out how to enter this gorgeous mood board <3

March Mood Board for Maja Design

Hi there, Maja Design has a new Mood Board challenge out today. It's full of gorgeous colours and inspiration.

For this Mood Board I decided to alter and old Samsung phone box. 

I used both sides of the Vintage Frost Basics paper 21st of December to cover the outside of the box.

I placed two pieces of paper on the top of the box, then I curled two corners of the top piece into the middle. I added distress ink to all the edges and placed on some metal corners. I put a few flowers in the middle with a couple of metal trinkets, ribbons and some glass beads.

This is how we use the mood boards:

We are using mood boards for our challenges. We truly believe in creativity and art at Maja Design. You are free to interpret the mood boards in any way you’d like. They are supposed to set you in an inspirational mood without too much controlling. We would like you to be inspired by the poems, words and photos. They are not given rules, they are just there as inspiration. However – we highly recommend you to follow the theme.. Feel free to use any Maja papers you’d like as long as they follow the colour scheme.

We will pick a winner and present it on the blog Maja Design March 28th.

Have in mind that these challenges are a really great way for us to discover new talents and maybe some future Creative Team members…

Here are my close ups

I used the Vintage Spring Collection paper, 5th of May, 4th of May and 7th of April.

From the mood board I used the colours of the board, the clock photo and the words - texture, clock and love as inspiration.

I used mists, stencils, Gelatos and modelling paste to add interest to the background. I have lots of paper layer which I tucked some twine and a doily in-between.

I used Blue Fern Chipboard Garden Lattice Bits and the title Perfect from the Perfect, Adorable, Special pack. These are all coloured with Finnabair mica powder in Vintage Pink

The clock details on the background are from using the Tim Holtz Clock stencil with Gelatos

I finished the layout off by adding cheesecloth, glass glitter, micro beads and pearls.
