A Happy New Year!

I had actually planned something completely different for your New Year's Eve Freebie, but then Just Jaimee gave away an awesome freebie this morning and I just had to use it. Therefore, this year's last freebie is a collection of alpha sheets made with her latest styles - 5 in all. Later in the new year - when I get more time - I will separate the sheets and make the alphas available as individual letters. But until then you have to do a little work of your own...

If you want something a little more sparkling - and wasn't around a year agon - I can recommend you to go to last years's New Year Alphas.

All I have left now is to wish you all a great New Year's Eve and a Wonderful 2012. Take care of yourselves and others tonight, OK?

Lots of Love - see you next year...

Merry Christmas!

May your Christmas days be merry and bright....

Danish Christmas - and lots more...

You better pour yourself a cup of coffee - I have lots to tell and give you.

1. Clean out doubles - Competition

If you were following this blog last Christmas you may remember that December is my time for cleaning out my archive. Such a clean out usually results in finding a lot of doubles = material I have purchased twiced. And I want to make it a Christmas tradition to give them away to you. Last year's Christmas Card Competition was not the biggest success, so this year I have decided to do something that requires less work for you. 

As you will find out later in this post inspiration can come from unexpected places and I sometimes need inspiration to make your freebies. Therefore, this year's competition will be as follows:

Email me something that means a lot to you - it can be a song title or lyrics, a poem, a picture or painting or simply a single word - anything you find inspirational. You don't have to email me full lyrics or the picture in itself just make sure I have enough information to find it on line.

Notice!

The deadline is New Years Eve and when the calendar shows 2012 I will have an impartial person pick the winners at random. There will be 3 equally big prizes for the lucky winners. When you email me put "Inspiration" in the subject field and make sure to include your name and email information and also let me know if you use PhotoShop as some of the doubles up for grabs are PS Tools.

2. Today's Freebie - For Carrie and her Mother.

The freebie I offer today is a special freebie. It is of course for all of you but it was inspired by a comment I got the other day from Carrie from Delaware and is therefore made especially for and dedicated to her and her mother from Aalborg in northern Jutland, Denmark. The freebie contains a lot of stuff associated with a good, old fashioned, Danish Christmas. I have also included a text that means a lot to all Danes around Christmas. It is an extraction from the Book "Peter's Christmas" written in 1870 and still known to all children in Denmark. I have used the fantastic illustration from the book to make a few elements for the kit. Finally, I have helped all you non-Danish speaking friends around the world by including a small word list giving you a few of the Danish Christmas words in English.

Here it is - click image for direct download (4shared).

I hope you will all enjoy a Danish Christmas with me. If you are interested in knowing a little more about Christmas in Denmark you can go to this site.

 I hope you like the mix of birthday and Christmas in this cluster frame. It has been a tradition for me that Christmas never starts until after my Birthday so I had to make it a little less Christmassy.

I also have a new Mega Alpha Pack in my store. It's called "All You Need for Christmas" as you get 27 different Christmas Alphas in one pack. Go check it out - I think it's awesome. An now you get 44% off - it's a real bargain.

I hope you will help me celebrate by having a really great Monday and please have some cake and think of me while eating it :o)

Lots of Birthday Love,

 

The story of the one left behind

This is the story of a Cute Little Alpha who played happily with all its friends on a designer's computer - not a care in the world... Until one day when an announcement was made that files were needed for a brand new Christmas Pack to go in the Danish Design Store!!!! All the files hurried to get in line and the Cute Little Alpha did all it could but was pushed and shoved until it finally found itself as the absolute end of the very long line.

The Cute Little Alpha crossed its fingers and hoped for the best, but luck was not its friend that day. When it was finally time for the Cute Little Alpha to apply for a place in the Christmas Pack a sign was put up saying "All seats taken - no more applicants needed"..... The Cute Little Alpha cried and cried and could not understand why it could not get into the Christmas Pack. "I'm cute and can be very Christmassy but I can also be used in all the other months of the year...". There were no friends left to play with so the Cute Little Alpha just sat in a corner of the Alpha Folder sighing and crying. 

Then one day the Cute Little Alpha heard something and looked up. It was the designer who felt so sorry for the Cute Little Alpha and had decided to pick it for a very important job. "You are going to be a Freebie on my blog" the designer said "and that is a very important job because you will get to live in a lot of loving people's computers and be used and used and used, and make people happy all the time!".

Now the Cute Little Alpha knew what people meant when they said "All good things come to those who wait" and the Cute Little Alpha jumped with joy - and has not stopped jumping since. Please let the Cute Little Alpha jump right into your computer and experience how much joy it will bring you!

You can pick up the Cute Little Alpha by simply clicking on its picture below.

Enjoy and be kind to the Cute Little Alpha.... please. It's even CU!

I hope you'll enjoy them.

Not related to any Holidays!

When you move around in the online scrapping world this time of year you can easily get confused. We are being bombarded with a lot of Holidays at the same time - Halloween, Thanksgiving, DSD/iNSD and Christmas....! I had to draw back and make you something completely unrelated to Holidays.

That is why your freebie today is a mix-it alpha containing 3 scribbled alphas - 1 plain, 1 white paper sticker and 1 brown paper sticker - for you to mix together, or not.

Oh my! Does it get into the category "Back to School" - and if so, is that a Holiday? Well, never mind...

Hope you'll enjoy a few Holiday-free days with this and I promise I'll be back with lots of Holiday stuff in a short time. In a few days I will also have a new product in my store that is related to nothing other than Japan! More about that later.

Enjoy - and stay happy!
