Dude Time Doodles Blog Hop

It is official Dude Time Doodles and Bonibleaux Designs Digis FIRST monthly New Release Blog Hop!

[grab the badge and share the news]

You will see all of the new release digis worked up for your viewing pleasure throughout the Blog Hop and let me just say “Dude, these are some very creative Girls!”

I got to play with Paul Pilgrim AND Tom Tom Turkey and had so much fun. I printed Paul out twice, once on white cardstock and then again on camouflage cardstock. Then I pieced his “hunting” outfit together. I was so tickled with how he turned out!

The card is my take on a Slider Card – if you want the details go HERE – I made up a little tutorial.

I hope you like the card and find the tutorial useful.

Now on to the really cool info: For today only Dude Time Doodles is extending its two FREEBIES - BUT you've got to go "hunting" for them just like the Pilgrims went hunting for their Thanksgiving Day dinner!

BUT that’s not all, keep reading!

The VT Hokies

Hokie, Hokie, Hokie, Hy.

Techs, Techs, V.P.I.

Sola-Rex, Sola-Rah.

Polytechs - Vir-gin-ia. Rae, Ri, V.P.I.

Team! Team! Team!

I have mentioned before that our house is a die-hard football home. The men in the house follow the VT Hokies until the end. And although they had a rough start this season they have rallied!

I couldn't resist sharing Football Phil from Bonibleaux Designs Digis with you in all his VT glory and the sentiment is right on the money from TLC.

A little Hokie trivia for you:

The HokieBird is an ass-kicking chicken. Actually he's a turkey, but that's not the point. The University would have you believe that "Hokie" is a word made up in 1896 by O. M. Stull in a winning entry in the school's contest for a new cheer. A closer look at the historical record reveals the startling truth that this is a poorly concocted lie created to hide a much larger conspiracy from the student body. University records reveal that in 1896, senior cadet O. M. Stull reported what would be the first of numerous sightings of a giant cartoonish bird in the mountains of southwest Virginia. Stull's commanding officer in the Corps of Cadets dismissed the report as "hokey" (a fashionable term at the turn of the century), and the giant bird soon became known as the HokieBird. Like his friends Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster, the HokieBird is simultaneously feared and adored by most humans. The sightings all report him to be a bird of great strength, great looks, and great intelligence. He has written extensively on chaos theory, nanotechnology, and the worthlessness of the Designated Hitter rule. He leaps tall buildings in a single bound, benches 405 pounds (77 reps against Akron), and has dated Jennifer Lopez, Sienna Miller, and Jessica Simpson. He has won three Nobel Peace Prizes, two Congressional Medals of Honor, and a partridge in a pear tree. He is part mascot, part super hero, and he will kick your ass. [thank you - Tailgatefever]
