Gothenburg

This is a babygirl-decosquare that I made for a friend that just had a little baby-girl. Since I know she loves vintage, this is what I came up with. I'm pretty happy with it!

I'm still on vacation, and we have spent a couple of days in Gothenburg, visiting the wonderful amusement-park Liseberg and stayed at a very nice hotel. They also have trams in Gothenburg, so we spent some time on them too, that is fun for red-necks like us! ;)

Michael Jackson tribute in Stockholm

I just saw this one and wanted to share. It really touched my heart. I know I am a couple of weeks late, but... Go and have a look!

Tribute to Michael Jackson

For my mom


This is a card I made for my mom's birthday. I am pretty happy with how it turned out, very summerish and nice. And the most important of all: my mom liked it!

Now I have only one more week to work, then it's VACATION! I just can't wait for it. This year's vacation is a little on the late side for me, I can tell. Next year I will try to get it earlier. I am really tired now and try to do as little as possible when I am home, just so I can keep it together and not crash again. But I will be fine, no worries! Just one more week and then I will be free for 4 weeks!

No vacation in sight...

A card I made for my niece Julia who turned 12 the other day. Just like the rest of us, she's very into cats, so I thought making her a card with a cat would be a good idea. I think it turned out pretty cute!

At the moment I am feeling pretty sorry for myself. I have 3 whole weeks to go before I start my summer-vacation! Yeah, I chose it myself but now I wonder how stupid I can get! Three more weeks is a LOT! I want it now! *sigh*

Oh yes! I have a car!

decFirst of all: I have a car now! I even got it delivered by Monday night, very nice! It's a small red Ford Fiesta, from 1996. Not fancy at all - it hasn't got Central locking, electric window elevators, AC or anything - but then again - there aren't as many things to break down either! I am very happy with my little car!

The deco above is a "Laurel & Hardy" deco and I am quite pleased with how it turned out. The "mat" I used for the picture is much, much more sparkly IRL, it gives it a nice touch!

Health

This piece above is an "Africa" deco. I thought it was fun to make it green, most decos with this theme are brown or beige. But I know there are some places in Africa that are green as well, so... here it is! The picture is from the internet, I googled "African beauty" and there she was! And she is really beautiful, don't you think?

I know I have been quiet for a while. The reason is that I haven't been feeling too well. A little more than a month ago, my car broke down and without it, it takes soooo much longer to get to work, because I have to rely completely on public transportations. And considering I was sick for 5 years and have been back to work now only 2 months... Well, it's taken a huge toll on my health, I can tell. Last Thursday evening, I came down with a huge anxiety-attack and couldn't do anything but lie flat on my back until Friday at noon. I tell ya, it was NO FUN calling work and tell them that I couldn't get out of bed because I had an anxiety-attack!

Well, now we are car-hunting and hopefully I will have a "new" car by Tuesday night, and then life will be much easier. I'll let you know!

Vintage girl

This deco, called "Vintage girl" is made for a groupswap in a friend's group, and they chose it for the front-page this month! I am so honoured and happy about that! I am pretty happy with how it turned out as well!

Tomorrow I will go to Norway and visit my dear friend Marthe, it will be a blast! We will be crafting around the clock until Sunday, when I have to leave again. I am so lucky to have my man Mats, who will give me a lift up there. I had planned to drive my own car, but it broke down last week and we will either have to repair it, or sell it and buy a new one. And it will cost a small fortune either way. And we can by no means get it fixed 'til tomorrow, so Mats with his big heart offered to take me there... Did I tell you that I love him oh so much?
