About Me

My name is Gunnvor Karita and I live in Volda, Norway. At age 46 I still enjoy fairytales and magic. I'm the single mom of two gorgeous girls age 12 and 13, a creative crafter, a deltiologist with a whimsical fancy for cherubs and roses, and in the spare time I try to fit a job at the University College. It is safe to say that our home (for the most part) is a very creative chaos, just the way we love it :-)

Most of the scans on this blog are 600 dpi. High quality printable collage sheets and my diy-projects (mainly pdf files) are found on Google Drive, following the links provided in the posts. Recently pdf-files on Google Drive show a very bleak and sorry preview, but don't worry, if you download or print the file, it will look just as it does on the previews here :-)

The files found on Wings of Whimsy are FREE FOR PERSONAL USE if not otherwise stated. If you would like to use the files elsewise, please contact me with your request.
