Da Vinci Day 5

Friday is usually on of my favourite days of the week, but not this Friday…


Late yesterday night my laptop died. My faithful, loyal and trusted friend passed on to a place where there are no online connections, no ram and no graphic cards… But at least it must be a peaceful place, and my Dellie definitely deserves some peace and quiet after all the years of hard work and travelling. R.I.P. Dellie.


Luckily I have my good old stationary to work for me, so you don’t have to go without freebies.


Today is the final Da Vinci Day, and to end an otherwise good week, I hereby give you 3 Quick Pages Da Vinci Style.

SORRY!

These freebies are no longer available.

Check my store - they might be there.

I am not sure exactly when I will be back with more goodies for you, as my paying job serves me with some very tight deadlines next week. But hang in there – I will be back as soon as possible!

Da Vinci Day 4

.

I Made It!


That Last Supper really gave me a hard time. The format is not quite suited for making square papers… But thanks to cheating, mingling and Photoshop I finally made it. Today’s 3 freebies make up a Last Supper Kit with an alpha, coloured papers matching the alpha and a Mini-Kit containing:


3 papers, jpg 12x12 300 ppi
1 paper – torn edge, png 12x12 200 ppi
1 paper – cardboard, png 12x12 200 ppi
4 tags, 1 with string
1 charm
1 label holder
1 Cut Out
2 screws for label holder
1 string for tags


I hope you can find good use for it. Especially you, Jody…

SORRY!

Although it would have been appropriate if The Last Supper had been the last day of my Da Vinci Tribute, I do believe I have a little something for tomorrow. See you then?

Da Vinci Day 3

I am confused… I mean really confused!

Today is April 21st, and spring arrived a couple of weeks ago, but when I look out my window IT SNOWS! Georg has gone into hibernation and I am just sitting here trying to decide what to wear when I go out in a short while. Well, at least it doesn’t stay on the ground. Our airport has just re-opened after the ash incidence so we don’t need another cause for grounding all flights.

Nevertheless, snow is not going to stop me posting, and you still need more Da Vinci freebies, right? So here is today’s catch. I did not have a lot of time yesterday to make you something, so you have to “settle for” some Nick-Nacks (otherwise known as elements) and a few Quote Arts (otherwise known as wordart). Hope you are not too disappointed.

SORRY!

These freebies are no longer available.

Check my store - they might be there.

My plans for tomorrow have something to do with The Last Supper, but I’m still not quite sure what it will end up with. I feel an Alpha and some papers coming up, but who knows. Drop by and be surprised.

Da Vinci - Day 2

I have looked at my download stats and all the comments you leave for me (and thanks for that), and a pattern appears. Every time I have “aged papers” up for grabs the stats boom. So let’s ride the waves of success and make some more of those…

Today’s Paper Pack is made from Leonardo’s paintings and sketches and are all aged (well, of course they are aged, they are more than 500 years old!). I hope they too will be among “The Populars”.

SORRY!

These freebies are no longer available.

Check my store - they might be there.

I am still not sure what will come tomorrow, but it will definitely be something Da Vinci :o)

And Jody, you can relax - I assure you that The Last Supper is on it’s way.

See you all again tomorrow?






By the way – I have expanded this blog with a Gallery where you can see some of my personal scrapbook pages. Please go to the top menu, and if you have the time for a comment, I would love to here what you think.

The Renaissance Man

Last week I had to prioritize, because two big events took place on the same day. Fun seeking little me chose to focus on Tivoli’s opening. But this week I will make up for ignoring the other. Thursday was the birthday of (in my opinion) one of the greatest men of all times:

This Renaissance Man – in every sense of the word – would have turned 558 this year, but didn’t make it past 67. However, in those 67 years he accomplished more than anyone could ever imagine, in more fields of work than any other. I don’t think he needs any further introduction, but if your knowledge about him is limited, you can check out this site.

Today an the rest of the week I will be posting material inspired by Da Vinci and made from his paintings, drawings and sketches. Today it’s an Alpha made from his famous drawing “The Vitruvian Man”. I must warn you though. As the label on the preview says, nude male genitals are visible on the drawing and therefore on some of the letters in the alpha. But since it is art, I took the chance and didn’t “cover it up”. Can you forgive me?

SORRY!

Please come back tomorrow for more Da Vinci.
