I found some more text to translate if anybody's interested. I tried
to
design it to be aesthetically pleasing, and I'd like other people's
opinion
on the result. It also looks rather familiar, but I'm not sure what
language(s) it looks like. Any suggestions?

Ah, yes, the North Wind and the Sun story... the Handbook of the IPA uses that as the example to which every language in the book is translated and then transcribed into IPA with. Your language looks highly Finnish (words like "Salössa" seem highly Finnish-looking to me) but at the same time it kind of doesn't look like Finnish ... must be the e-umlauts everywhere...
