Crea Diem was one of the Maja Design collections that I hardly dared to cut into, just because it is so pretty. I really love the elegant and timeless designs and the beautiful colours in these papers. This week I decided to just do it and use these wonderful papers to create a lay-out about my niece. On this lay-out I wanted to record my biggest wish: becoming a mom some day. More than everything else in the world, I would love to have children of my own in the future. Seeing my nieces grow up from these cute little babies into happy toddlers and then smart children, just makes my heart sing!

The first thing I did to make this lay-out, was cutting out the clock pattern from the “Den oersättliga tiden” sheet. I wanted it to be a real eye-catcher on my lay-out and kind of built the rest of my lay-out around it. Also I cut out some butterflies from the Vintage Spring Basics “6th of May” sheet. I spread them over my lay-out, in such way that it looks as if they are flying to the top of my lay-out. In the right upper corner I created a cluster with some flourishes, a frame, two clocks and – once again – my favourite fussy cut butterflies. A little flower cluster and some cut out twigs (from the “Den oersättliga tiden” sheet made the finishing touch on my page. Supply list:

Hello!! Marilyn here to share with all of you this page that I made with the Crea Diem Collection.  This page is about one of my favorite beach here where I live in Puerto Rico. I love the turquoise color in the beach but when you are there the water is completely clear and transparent and the sand is very white…it’s a gorgeous beach!

I worked with OM DU VILL ALSKAS, SKAPA DAGEN papers from Crea Diem Collection.

I used two different mask here and added some textures with molding paste, too.

I also used corrugated, twine, pearls, crystal vine, lace, flowers and handmade flowers.   If you someday have the opportunity to come to Puerto Rico don’t forget to visit  Vieques to see and enjoy this paradise.
