{Paradise}

Hey there crafters! Melissa A here on the Memory Maze blog today and with it being Summer here in Australia, I have created a beautiful tropical layout to share with you all.


I have used card stock from the 3Quarter Designs 'Beach House' collection and ephemera from Mintay's 'Paradise' collection.


I did some background stencilling using some white 3D modelling paste and Memory Maze Heart Frames chipboard, which I heat embossed with various embossing powders (See product list below).


I also used some Memory Maze chicken wire chipboard, which was heat embossed with embossing powder as well.
To finish off this tropical layout, I added some flowers from Autumn Lane, some large art stones and some pink & blue beads for some sparkle.



I hope you liked this tropical layout and it has inspired you to create some 'Summer' inspired layouts.

That's all from me today, have a wonderful week and happy crafting! :)

{Butterfly Dreams}

Hey there crafty people! Melissa A here with you today and I have a beautiful soft coloured DT layout to share with you created for the wonderful Memory Maze Lasercuts.



For this layout I have gone with a pretty butterfly theme and have used Mintay's card stock, as well as their fussy cutting elements.
For the background I sprinkled some pink pixie powder and sprayed it with water to get the desired effect, just to add some colour and then I did a little bit of stamping around the photo area.


I have used the gorgeous butterfly frame with the title from Memory Maze and I heat embossed it with both yellow and pink embossing powders. I did this with all the other butterfly chipboards used on this layout as well.


I used some beautiful soft yellow and pink Autumn Lane flowers, which worked in perfectly with this layout and also tucked some wood wool in between and around them for some added texture.


I hope you liked my latest creation, I will have some more for you all very soon! Until then...happy crafting! :)

A very good morning to you all and welcome back to the Memory Maze Chipboard Blog.

Today I would like to share with you a layout about man's best friend. Lots of Dog related chipboard pieces on this layout which also uses the Doggy Dayz printed papers from Studio 73.

All the chipboard pieces have been covered in distress oxides in numerous colours, I love this stuff, it gives a perfect and easy cover for all your chipboard.

I also used the paw prints stencil to add extra pawprints and I think they turned out pretty cute.

Oh Dear, Oh Dear, I shall be too late!

 Good Morning Memory Maze fans, Fiona here today on the blog. For this post I have created a page again using cuttables of everyone's favourite childhood story - Alice in Wonderland. The cuttables are such a versatile product good for cards, scrapbooks and journals. I used my Art by Marlene journal (A4 size), Dina Wakley scribble sticks, stencils and tissue paper and the cuttables and chipboard from Memory Maze!


Starting with the background I used three of the different blues of scribble stick, scribbling a good amount of pigment onto the paper (which is a heavy watercolour cardstock) and used my water brush to spread the colour around and blend the colour, as well as creating some patterns by using extra water over the background before it dried.

From there I used my trusty glue stick and glued onto the background four of the cuttable images that I had torn out from the page, overlapping them in a cluster before also colouring over the top of these randomly with the same three colours of scribble stick. From there I added the hearts tissue paper.


As I think of big red hearts when thinking of Alice in Wonderland I found a hearts stencil by Dina Wakley and used her ruby paint to paint through it to add bold bright red hearts. over most of the page, I had to reposition the stencil a couple of times to add hearts diagonally on the page to draw your eye to the chipboard words and the rabbit. I painted the rabbit black to stand out and left the letters raw as I like the look of raw chipboard on bright colours.



Have a great Thursday!


Items used:
Memory maze Cuttable sheet
Memory Maze chipboard
Dina Wakley paint - Ruby
Dina Wakley scribble sticks - Turquoise, peacock and sky
Dina Wakley tissue paper
Dina Wakley stencil - The best hearts

Christmas Cards

 Good morning and welcome to my second blog post for November.

Today I am sharing two Christmas Cards that I have created using Memory Maze Christmas Chipboard pieces.

I have used my metallic rubs and white ink to colour the chipboard and with the use of white gauze I was able to add more dimension to the cards.
