Cog Tag

With this tag I used Vintage photo Distress Oxide through cog stencil, then used our Cutable Cog page. Then just layered the cogs using foam tape then added chipboard cogs. Hop you like it.

{Imagination}

Hey there crafty people!

Welcome back to the Memory Maze blog. Melissa A here with you today with my last Design Team project for 2021!

I went a little steampunk with this layout, I hope you like it.

I have used the awesome 'Gizmo Escapades' collection from 3Quarter Designs for this layout.

I did some background stenciling using white gesso.

I heat foiled the large chipboard clock and painted the chipboard title.

I layered the fussy cut elements around my photo using mounting tape on some of them for dimension.

And I created some layered flower clusters around my photo.

I hope you found some inspiration from this layout for your own projects.

That's all from me for this year, thank you so much for your support and I hope I have inspired you at one stage or another with my creations.

I will be back very soon in Early January with some more crafty inspiration, until then...happy holidays, stay safe and happy crafting!

{Good Times}

Hey there crafty friends!

Melissa A here today sharing my latest project created for Memory Maze Lasercuts.

For this layout I have used card stock from 3Quarter Designs' 'Beach House' collection and I tore along some of the lines, distressed and inked them.

I then attached some gauze behind the ripped sections and then attached some light yellow card stock over them as a backing piece.

I used a half piece of a butterfly frame I had left over from a previous layout and I heat foiled it with a bright blue foil.

I heat embossed the floral chipboard frame with a bright red embossing powder.

I used some green/gold embossing enamel on both the bubble background chipboard, as well as on the title.

I fussy cut elements from Mintay's 'Berrylicious' collection and arranged them around my photo, using mounting tape on some of them to create dimensional layers.

I layered up some Autumm Lane flowers to create small clusters and tucked in some leaf branches within them.

To finish off, I sprinkled some small art stones over and around the flowers.

I hope you liked my Summer inspired layout and found some inspiration from it for your future projects.

I will be back again very soon with some more crafty inspiration, until then...happy crafting!

{Christmas Junk Journal}

Hey there crafty people! Welcome back to the Memory Maze blog- Melissa A with you today and I am sharing something very different for my DT project this time.
I thought I'd give the layouts a little rest this month and try some new things and this time I have made my first Junk Journal.
I am very happy with how it turned out, I hope you like it too and it inspires you to try your hand at one as well and the best part is, they are super easy to make!

{Babycakes}

Hey there crafty friends! Welcome back to the Memory Maze blog.

Today I am sharing a DT layout for Memory Maze Lasercuts and I decided to create a baby themed layout this time, I hope you like it.

So for this layout I used card stock from Kaisercraft's Little Treasures collection and I angled the yellow piece slightly over the floral piece before attaching it and cutting off the excess.

I used another piece of card stock from the Little Treasures collection and used it as a photo matt.

I fussy cut elements from Mintay's 'Tiny Miracle' collection and arranged them around my photo, using mounting tape on some of them to create dimensional layers.

I heat embossed the chipboard stars and puzzle pieces with embossing powders and used paint on my chipboard title.

I created a cluster of flowers using Autumn Lane's handmade flowers and then tucked some cheesecloth in between them as well as under the top of my photo.

To finish off I coloured some art stones using stone drops and then sprinkled them randomly over my flowers and around the layout.

I hope you found some inspiration from my latest creation. I will be back again very soon with some more crafty inspiration but until then...happy crafting! :)

{Forever Friends}

Hey there crafty people! Welcome back to the Memory Maze blog - Melissa A with you today and I am sharing a new layout filled with bright beautiful purples, yellows and greens.

For this layout I have used card stock and fussy cut elements from 3Quarter Designs' 'Herbalists Charm' & 'Wild Flora' collections.

I used a dog bone chipboard frame which I heat foiled with mint green foil. I also foiled the chipboard title and heat embossed the dog chipboard piece.

I attached some burlap mesh lace inside the heart shaped chipboard which also acted as a backing for my photo.

I also attached some white lace trimming to the edge of my photo.

I attached some handmade flowers from Autumn Lane and tucked in some artificial flower stems between them.

I hope this layout was inspirational to you in some way. 

I will be back very soon with some more crafty inspiration, until then...happy crafting! :)
