Meet Ollie...

This past July the family and I ventured to Canada, Idaho and a few other stops, When we stopped in Couer D'Alene Idaho we found Ollie sitting in a shop waiting to join the family. I have a lot of photos from that trip but this past weekend we ran to Disneyland to go Trick or Treating and spend some time with family and I met up with one of my DT members, funny thing is, she lives the closest out of my whole DT about 50 miles away and we had to go all the way to Anaheim to meet.

Ollies blog is here... http://travelingollie.blogspot.com I kept him separate because he's a fun project not really related and some people are here just for art stuff...

His first trip report is up and there will more to follow. Funny looks you get sometimes walking around Disneyland with a monkey taking random photos...

October month links as well as year membership link will be back up later today...

IF ~ Spooky

This weeks Illustration Friday is "Spooky" yes I am cutting it close. It's always spooky for me to see the things that pop outta my head this Halloween time of year. Dudley is all ready for trick-or-treating in his new SteamPunk costume. Hopefully I have done his steampunkiness justice.

Christmas Down Unda...

I have a few more goodies for those October Members...They will be posted a little later today...

 

Some goodies for those who's Christmas isn't always white...

Dustin

Nativity for sale, Donation total...and

The Nativity set is now for sale, drummer boy included...

$5.00

I took donations off of last weeks freebies and the Grand Donation total.....
$212.00

Thank you so much for doing this. I am sure the family will appreciate every penny received.

October members keep your eyes open there will be a few more tricks and treats showing up here in the next day or two. I am finishing another book and will be making some more goodies soon...

Dustin

Nativity is done....

But not for sale just yet.

If you are a yearly member check your "Inbox" and "Spam" just in case, Santa Dudley might have sent you a present. Nativity will be available a little later on for those not on Dudley Dragon's Good List...OK, not the good list but just his list, you have all been pretty good. Except a couple of you. Santa Dudley is keeping a close eye on you three...

Dustin

A few more for Friday...

Not sure if I am really liking his feet at this point, but here's a little teaser of a Little Drummer Boy that will be included in the Nativity Set that is almost done. Hair might be fixed as well...

and another for the October membership some Tropical Christmassy things for those lucky enough to live in a place without snow for Christmas. Actually I am OK with snow until Christmas Day, then the Day after Christmas the snow needs to melt and it need to start being spring...Keep an eye out for some more flamingos as well...

I have everyone so far that has emailed me letting me know they bought the Year Membership and were already October members, if you did and haven't please let me know. Also next Wednesday October 20th I will take down the link for the Yearly membership and put it back up on Tuesday the 26th when the monthly option will be posted as well, I will not be around my computer most of that time and didn't want people ordering and waiting for me to get them set up...

Today I have some Awesome DT projects using Turkey Time that is included with a Yearly Membership...

Nativity Teaser, Year membership going on and ...

I am still taking donations on the freebies from yesterday thru Sunday night, After that I will figure out the total and get it sent to the proper place and I will let everyone know as well. THANK YOU soooo much to all of those who donated by buying the freebies....

Nativity teaser below...Some of them MAY look like these there may be changes...it's a work in progress, but will be done in time for a surprise...What that surprise is...well it wouldn't be a surprise if I told now would it...

 

Year membership has been secretly going on for the past few days, didn't really announce it and wasn't going to BUT I have had a few people buy it and then not send me an email telling me that they had October and just wanted to keep the same info. So if you have bought the year membership and not let me know about keeping your info please email me and let me know...Want to know more...All the details are here DETAILS

Turkey Time is just one of the things (*cough* nativity *cough*) included for being a Year Member. From all that I have heard, October Members are happy with the art they have received so far...and we are not done yet...

There will still be the option of just a monthly membership, ordering November's won't begin til Tuesday October 26th...Next weekend I have a MAJOR Honey Do that will most likely keep me away from my computer Thursday thru Monday...

My kids have a 4 day weekend from school starting today, so I should be around all day if you decide to become a Year Member...

Dustin

Freebie and a Sincere request...

One of my DT members asked if we could help a family that really needs help right now...The post is here on this blog....,http://summertimedesigns.blogspot.com/ I have never been to her blog before but the story is heart breaking. Now I know we are all tight on money, some of us are unemployed, other situations beyond our control but I am sure every little bit would help., If I may be so bold to ask, the link below costs ONE DOLLAR, it's still 2 freebies and it's like donating a buck. Every cent that comes from that file will be sent to the family.

Freebie has been removed...

With as many people as I have taking advantage of my freebies, a dollar donation from each of you would make a BIG difference in the medical expenses and other hardships they are facing and will be in the future...

Dustin

New October Members Art...

There are new October Members Art loaded to the Members page...

1 more and the month is done, doesn't mean I won't be adding more, Setting up the option for a yearly membership for those interested...Year Membership, PLEASE read the bottom text on the page

Dustin

Turkey Time Teaser...

Here's the rest of the Turkey gang...

I talked about a yearly membership in a post yesterday, some people asked and yes there will still be a monthly option. Just not at the savings of a year's price...

Dustin

Turkey Time...?

So it's finally that time I think, fall weather in the air, rain and those falling leaves being tracked into the newly vacuumed house...wait... I have been a stay at home Dad too long...(yes I vacuum) Today I have a Turkey Time teaser... I have decided to go ahead with a yearly membership for those wanting that option, it won't start til November and will run til October 2011...I am not signing up people right now. Not yet, I will post it when it's ready, Still finishing up October which by the way will be done here in the next little while...
With the yearly membership you will keep your same user ID and password (if you are an October member). That way it's easier on all of us. So that some of you have a chance to save up your rainy day funds, allowance moneys etc. I am letting you all know about it now... IF you sign up for a year membership BEFORE November 1st 2010 it will be $60. Yes that is $5 bucks a month. After November 1st it will go up to $75, that's still the $7.50 a month price you get ordering early and with 2 months free. A good deal but not the half price awesome deal...Each month I will set up that month's page and you can just log in and grab the goodies...Here is a little teaser of the set that will be included when you purchase a year membership...
Turkey Time...

Enjoy...

Dustin

freebie and Updated October Members Art...

Here is the new art for October Members, Colored and BnW versions are uploaded on the members site...

Speaking of members...Some of you have been asking if I will offer a year membership. I was thinking about it, maybe with a deal where you get a month or two free, or a lower price if you get the year over the monthly option...Maybe in time for November...hmmmm

Here is today's freebie, he kinda got left out of the Circus set last week so here he is as a freebie...

Enjoy...
Dustin

World Card Making Day Blog Hop

WELCOME!!!!

You are on the CardSwaps World Cardmaking Day Blog Hop! You should have arrived here from Ana’s blog . Doesn’t she do great work? I just love her project so much!! I’m glad you decided to hop on over here and continue your path around.

Don’t forget, if you comment on every blog by midnight CST, October 3, 2010, you will be entered in to a drawing for prizes. The full list of prizes are on Lora's blog here: http://craftsaremything.blogspot.com/2010/09/blog-hop-prizes.html.

There is a mini crop going on at CardSwaps and you are invited to play. Each Designer on the blog hop is giving away a freebie to entice you to participate!

You can use any free digital image found on the blog hop and here's mine...

I have been drawing for a very long time. It's what I did in school instead of my normal school work. Right now I am a stay at home Dad and part time freelance designer, I create digi's for my site DoodleDragonStudios. as well as rubber stamps for High Hopes Stamps. I tend to draw more for the boy crowd, still can't figure out why...? Seeing the creations you all come up with is almost more exciting than creating the art.

You have until midnight, CST, October 3, 2010, to post your comment on each blog on the hop (that includes mine, please!). Everyone that comments on each blog will be entered in to the drawings for blog hop prizes. In addition, if you want to participate in the challenges for the mini crop at Card Swaps, go check it out after the blog hop and upload your completed project by midnight CST, October 3, 2010. There are prizes to win there, too! I hope you enjoy the freebie I came up with and I can’t wait to see what you come up with!
