Spring cleaning

Det er utrolig hvor mye litt organisering og noen små innkjøp gjør for inspirasjonen av og til! Det har gått litt trått med kortlagingen her i det siste. Som den store prokrastinatoren jeg er, så tok jeg heller noen runder i nettbutikker og organiserte både papirrester, stempler og blomster i stedet for å lage kort. Jeg fant ark jeg hadde glemt at jeg hadde, som jeg kunne kombinere med nye lekre blomster som kom i posten. Og før jeg visste ordet av det, så hadde jeg flere ideer enn jeg kunne lage og TRE halvferdige prosjekter på bordet på en gang!
*It's amazing how much a little organizing and a few new buys will do for your inspiration sometimes! Cardmaking has been a bit slow lately. As I am a major procrastinator I rather did some online shopping and organizes paperscraps, stamps and flowers instead of making cards. I found papers I forgot I had that I could combine with some new gorgeous flowers that came in the mail. And before I knew it I had more ideas than I could make and THREE half ready projects on my table at once!*

Dette kortet skulle være et bestillingskort, laget etter en skisse fra Mojo Monday. Bakgrunnsarket er faktisk et juleark fra The Paper Loft. Jeg håper ikke noen syns det ser veldig julete ut? Det er i alle fall kombinert med et noteark fra Inkido og kartong fra Bazzill, selvfølgelig.
Blomstene er fra Wild Orchid Crafts og jeg er SÅ stolt av meg selv som endelig klarer å kombinere noe annet enn bare roser! Disse liljene fra WOC er jo bare helt herlige og den store tofargede Trellis rosen er til å spise opp! Tallene er stanset ut med Quickutz Winter Wishes. Både blonden og båndet bak har vært i lageret mitt lenge og jeg aner ikke hvor de kommer fra. Tekststempelet er fra Staz og har aldri vært i bruk før.

Deilig å endelig føle at inspirasjonen kommer litt tilbake! Håper bare det varer denne gangen. :)

*This was supposed to be a commision card, made after a sketch from Mojo Monday. The background paper is actually a christmas paper from The Paper Loft. I hope no one thinks it looks very christmasy? Either way it's combined with a sheet music paper from Inkido and cardstock from Bazzill, of course.
The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and I'm SO proud of myself for finally being able to combine something other than just roses! These lillies from WOC are just gorgeous and the large two-coloured Trellis Rose is just eadible! The numbers are die cut with Quickutz Winter Wishes. Both the lace and ribbon have been in my stash for ages and I have no idea where they're from. The sentiment is from Staz and has never been used before.

It's so great to finally feel that the inspiration is returning! Just hope it'll last this time. :) *
