Memorial Day Weekend BlogHop...Freebies...

I spent 6 years in the Air Force, deployed at times and away from home a lot, a homemade card received would have been awesome, and a card I could have sent home to my family would have been greatly appreciated...In celebration of this Blog Hop I have created the following images that would make excellent cards to either send to a soldier or help them have a card to send to their family while they are away.

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!

of rubber over at High Hopes Stamps. They are blog hoppin' today for the release.

The Link is HERE...

Make sure to leave comments during the Hop because there will be prizes!! Four random Diva blogs will be hosting candy...but you won't know which one...so I'd personally leave a comment on all of them!!

One lucky person will win the FULL release with 3 others winning stamp packages!!!
They also have a list of sites where you can get the stamps... Now the wait is over, retired and new art from myself in rubber...

Oh yes there is a freebie today as well...

It's Officialy Official...

After months of secret planning, the secret is out and High Hopes Rubber Stamps has announced that I am their new artist, I will countinue with Doodle Dragon Studios, no need to worry, but now you can get images in rubber for those traditionalists that haven't turned to the Digi-Dark side. I kid of course, I like to color stuff in photoshop, but there's something about coloring with my Tombow's and Prismacolor's that you just don't get on the PC... So stop by the blog, they are having a blog Hop this time next week, just in time for the release of my stamps...

The blog hop Prize is pretty exciting...I have a set here and they turned out pretty amazing...
