For My Niece - Till min systerdotter

Hello all! Long time no see... I've simply been busy with other things than paper crafting. First there were some major changes at work and I was happy to get tasks which I'm more comfortable with than those I used to have, so I feel like a winner in a lottery. It took some time though to adapt to new routines but everything has worked out fine.

Now I'm on summer vacation and there are plenty of things to do at home. Gardening for instance. On a rainy day like today it feels great to be excused from lawn-mowing and so forth.

I made this card for my niece on her Confirmation Day. Service at church was a bit different than it was 33 years ago on my Confirmation Day. I won't go into details, lets just say the church was crowded and we laughed a lot. The laughing part was never an option back in the days...

    1. Thank you for your kind words. The largest flower is crocheted. I found a bunch of them in a thrift shop at no cost at all, though I've actually learnt to crochet flowers since then.
