And the Oscar goes to…

…Denmark! And you know what? That is BIG - HUGE! We don’t care what the title is or who the director is. We just heard that DENMARK won an Oscar. And for a country of only 5.5 million people that is what we would call “quite good going”.

And if you want the details the film is called “In a better world” (“Hævnen” in Danish), is directed by Susanne Bier (photos) and the category was “Best Foreign Language Film”.

At the same time the Englishmen took over the night with “The King’s Speech” which pleased me enormously. No offense, but in my opinion the British are so much better at making interesting movies than the Americans.

To celebrate the big event I went digging in my archives and found a few papers related to Oscar, film and Photography. I hope you can use them for something remarkable in your own life.

Take care!

A Little Bit Friday 31

Although February is almost over (can you believe it?) it is still very much February outside, and such times call for C&C (Cozy & Comfort) and what is more cozy than an old book? So today’s “Little Bit” brings you two old books from the Danish Royal Library to cozy up your layouts.

As my download bandwidth is closing in on 80% I think I’ll take a few days off from posting and get back to you in March when we have a brand new 100 GB to take from. Well, that may just be an excuse for a little break, but it’s a good excuse, don’t you think?

See you all in March.

How wrong can one be?

I’m not sure if my senses played a trick on me or if this is just the way it is. This morning I woke up to - TA-DA - snow! Yes, that white stuff that comes out of the sky when the temperature is below zero… So much for spring.

But the weather people on TV assure us that it is just a day fluke. As of tomorrow pre-spring should be back. So I cross my fingers and hope that they, for once, get it right.

But no kind of fluke weather can stop me from delivering your freebie and today you get a very nice turquoise alpha with everything included.

I hope you like it and will return here on Friday for A Little Bit and - hopefully - more spring feelings.

And while you are here - check Your Gallery for the latest addition from Sim in France.

Is that spring I’m sensing…?

It’s Monday and I’m in a good mood. That is a combination that does not happen often. But yesterday something changed. The sun was shining from a clear blue sky and although the temperature outside was below zero you could feel the warmth from the sun. And sitting in my kitchen I could hear the birds singing beautifully all day. I think it’s a sign of spring just around the corner…

And that is how I got inspired for today’s freebie. A cluster frame with spring promises.

I have included both the full cluster frame and the cluster without frame so you can use it with your own frame or for something different.

I hope this will make you feel the spring in the air too.

See you soon.

A Little Bit Sampler

Before I get to today’s freebie I just want to finish off the password issue from earlier this week.

I have spoken to 4shared and (we think) we have found the problem. I have used the last few days to go through all my files and hope to have cleared any passwords that were there. But there may be some left so:

If you try to download one of my files and are asked to enter a password try typing “free4u” (without the quotes).

If that is not accepted please leave a comment or - even better - send me an email to let me know which file it is. I will then get the password removed.


Well, on to a more interesting issue - FREEBIE. I have changed today’s Little Bit Friday to a free sampler of my latest kit on Scrap it Sassy. The kit - Good Morning Kit - contains just about everything you need for a digital breakfast:

If you click the image you will be taken directly to my store.

The free sampler is a “continental breakfast” version of the kit, where you get toast and coffee and something to serve it on.

You have to get it from my store so you need to register. Click on the image to go to the free sampler.

I’ll be back on Monday - have a nice weekend!

So much for a few days off!

As some of you may have noticed 4shared asks for a password when you try to download my files. I have NO idea why… I have not added passwords to any of my freebies and I have found out that it is only some of you who experience the problem. Therefore, I have contacted 4shared support to get it fixed but experience tells me that may take a while.

Until I find a solution (or another site to store my files) I want you to contact me by email if you are trying to download one of my files but are asked for a password. Tell me the name of the file or post and I will try to get it to you in another way.

I am very sorry for all the bother and promise to let you know when/if the problem gets solved.

PS - If any of you can recommend another storage site (it doesn’t have to be free) I will be happy to hear from you.

Bring home a Doggy Bag

Now the big Day of Love is over and as after any good meal you can bring home a doggy bag with whatever was left over. Today’s freebie is my Valentine’s Doggy Bag with all the goodies I didn’t have room for and I must say my appetite failed me cause there is A LOT left over for you. More than 90 MB of papers, elements, alphas, frames and WordArts.

Download links:

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

All in one

.

I have separated it into 3 zips for those of you without a high speed connection but there is also a link for the hard cores among you where you get it all in one go.

I don’t want to sound like a party pooper but I have to say that I have had enough pink and hearts for a very long time. Except, of course, for the big bouquet of soft pink tulips on my table that I bought for myself yesterday… It’s sad, I know. So now I’ll take a few days off and return with a little bit on Friday - and it will have NOTHING to do with Valentine’s Day - I promise!

See you Friday?

Happy Valentine’s Day!

Let me start this day by saying:

- every one of you who come here to download my designs. You are making the scrap-designing part of my life so much better!

And to thank you I hereby give you 2 new additions to my month long Valentine’s Kit: Gem stones and single stitches.

Hope your day with be filled with love. And remember…

There is nothing in this world more important than a loved one
- except a loved one bringing you chocolate!

Please come back tomorrow for my Valentine’s Doggy Bag!

A Little Bit Friday 30

Yet another week is almost over but not until we have spend a lovely weekend doing nothing - except the things we want to do… And what could be better than scrapping?

To stay in the Valentine’s mood today’s little bit is a Dear Diary Frame to show of the love of your life. I have included two frames - one with text and one without so you can add your own text (font info is included in the zip).

Click image for direct download.

I will be back during the weekend with more Valentine stuff as I have a lot to give away before Valentine’s Day is over.

I just noticed: Today is one of those days where the date is the same forwards and backwards - at least when you write it as we do here in Denmark... 11.02.2011!

See you soon!

I Bet it’s an Alpha

and I won the bet…

Today you get the third Valentine Alpha, this time a beautiful pink gothic alpha with upper and lower cases (Danish Æ,Ø & Å incl.), numbers and symbols.

Have fun scrapping and come back on Friday for A Little Bit.

Make a Heart

I hope you all had a great weekend… and for all of you Super Bowl Fans: hope you cheered for the right team! For me I didn’t have “a tema” so I honestly didn’t watch for any other reason than hearing Aguilera sing the National Anthem - and that was worth staying up late for (forgotten lyrics or not)! The game doesn’t start until 1 am here in Denmark but for some reason I stayed awake for the first 3 quarters. Don’t ask me why. But I must say I was a bit disappointed: No one served me pizza or Buffalo wings, not even a small tub of popcorn..! Where did I go wrong?

Well, after sleeping most of the day I am now ready to offer you today’s part of my Valentine’s Series, and it includes a little D.I.Y. You get 7 hearts and 7 scribble frames for you to mix and match as you please or use separately, if that’s what you like.

Have fun and come back soon!

A Little Bit (Valentine’s) Friday

Today’s Little Bit is actually just more for my Valentine’s Kit. I have made you 7 bow rings - one in each of the Valentine colours. I must admit that I’m not quite sure how to use them but they were just so cute I had to give them to you. And I’m sure you can find a use for them… (…and when you do, you might want to show me?).

Have a fantastic weekend - see you soon.

Spread a little love…

We all need a little love - sometimes a LOT!

So why not scatter your layouts with hearts - not only around Valentine’s Day, but all year? Here is my contribution to your love-scattering:

9 heart scatters in various sizes and colours + 1 full size overlay.

Let me end this post by saying THANK YOU for all your comments and support on Monday. It really helps to know that you are out there :o)


See you Friday for this weeks’s Little Bit?
