{Live Wild}

Hello crafty friends! Welcome back to the Memory Maze blog - Melissa A with here today sharing a new steampunk themed layout. I hope you like it.




For this layout I have used card stock from 3Quarter Designs that matched this steampunk design perfectly. I did some gold stenciling on the background so it stands out.


I fussy cut Mintay's 'Fall Festival' elements and attached them around my photo.


I used a star shaped chipboard which I embossed with 'Chunky Aged Copper' embossing powder and placed it behind my photo.


I cut up some steampunk chipboard and coloured it using gold wax.

I used a long corset border chipboard, which I coloured with sparkle paste.

I added some beautiful hand made flowers from Autumn Lane, which matched the colours brilliantly. 


To finish off, I embossed the title with white embossing powder so it stands out.

Thank you for looking. I will be back again very soon with some more crafty inspiration. Until then...happy crafting! :)

{Happy Thoughts}

Hey there everyone, welcome back to the Memory Maze blog - Melissa A here with you today with a bright coloured DT layout for Memory Maze Lasercuts


As you can see, I have used a large love heart chipboard from Memory Maze and have embossed it with some 'Carefree Verdigris' coloured embossing powder.


I have used the bright and beautiful coloured 'Whimsical Notions' card stock from 3Quarter Designs and the bright coloured 'Better Times' fussy cutting elements from Mintay - they worked perfectly together.
I layered the elements around my photos for dimension.


I used some background chipboard from Memory Maze to fill the heart and embossed it with a 'Shabby White' colour embossing powder. I also embossed the title with the same embossing powder that I used on the love heart.


I added some matching bright coloured handmade flowers from Autumn Lane to finish off and then sprinkled some small art stones over and around them.

I hope you liked this layout as much as I liked creating it. Bright colours always make me happy. Be sure to check out all the awesome products available from both Memory Maze and Autumn Lane.

I will be back very soon with some more crafty inspiration. Until then...Happy crafting! :)
