{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!
There are too many pages to add them all, but you can watch a quick flip through video below.

{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! :)

For the chipboard frame and title I heat embossed them with embossing powder.

{Through the years}
Hey there crafty friends! Welcome back to the Memory Maze blog - Melissa A here today, sharing my latest DT layout, which happens to be a beautiful soft colour palette.
I used 3Quarter Designs 'Whispered Memories' card stock for this layout as it suited the mood board perfectly.
I ripped and then distressed and inked the edges of some corrugated cardboard before attaching it with some mounting tape for dimension.
I attached some white lace trimming slightly under the corrugated cardboard.
I used silver heat foil on the tree chipboard and embossing powder on the title.
I attached some white trimming on one side of each photo.
I sprinkled glitter over the flower resins and attached them within the flower clusters. I also attached some branches in between the flower clusters.
To finish off, I sprinkled some white, blue and gold micro beads over and around the flower clusters.
I hope you liked my latest creation and were able to find some inspiration from it.
I will be back again very soon with some more crafty inspiration. Until then...happy crafting! :)
