60’s inspired 50th birthday card

Inspired by this week’s Sweet stop sketch challenge #203 I made this card for my mother. I really like the card but I don’t think it is a birthday card. Unfortunately I had no time to make another one before the party started. The text is a song in swedish about a girl named Maja, which also is my mother’s name and she used to sing it for me when I was a kid.

Pastel flowers

A mid week finished card for once! Just to be able to participate in a few challenges. For this card I had 2 sisters challenge #134: pastels, the crafty bloggers network #9: spring or pastel and a gem of a challenge #70: floral frenzy (I marked those words, he he)  in mind. And a bonus was to use the never ending paper flowers and brads from my stash. One tiny step towards extinction, yay!

I do feel that something is missing in the background but I’ll just leave this as it is, there’s just too much to do both at work and at my spare time this week, that’s life!

The colors do look slightly darker than they are, me and my crappy photos again! I guess the lightning in my closet is worthless for photos.. Could have figured that one out earlier to be honest! One day I’ll make myself a lightbox or something similar, when I have the time.

So I spent a few hours in my crafting closet today again with a few challenges in mind.
