From Ålesund and the area around.....

I found all these pictures in Sunnmørsposten online, from the area around where I come from in Norway.....Ahhhhhh....They make me TOTALLY homesick....To smell the air from the sea, and to listen to the waves...

and more.....

And some more....

The rest of the cards...

Here are some more of the cards that I made for the United Way sale. Since I had to charge a fairly low price for them, and had to make a whole bunch, they are not the most elaborate ones perhaps, but I still enjoyed making them.

United Way sale

Today was the long-awaited United Way one-of-a-kind art sale at work....And I did sell some cards! I am glad that my frantic efforts these last weeks trying to produce enough cards came into fruition. I was actually still up at 2am this morning taking pictures of the last cards I made...Although these cards were not the most complicated, I still spent time on design and colour, so I thought it sensible to capture it, in case I need to make a last-minute card in the future. Will post a few of them as soon as I've downloaded them from the camera. Although I sold quite a few cards, I am also thrilled to say that I didn't sell them all.....This means that this year my family and friends just might get a card as well...

...and, I don't think I'll make another card for...oh, about a year or so. He-he. Just feel completely carded out! Now I am looking forward to trying out some scrapbooking, and I have a few ideas swirling around in my head for some paintings too. And I have a tons of snippets of songs recorded on my phone ready to be developed into whole pieces....Although it was fun being part of the United Way sale (and it's a good cause too), I must admit it is nice to be free to do what I want again! :-)

And more.....

Some more cards.....

Lo and Behold

I DO have wings!!!
