DoodleDragon Blog Hop


Hello there, you should have arrived here from Dustin's blog, if not don't forget to pop/hop/skip or click back so you don't miss anything!

Welcome Dustin Pike fans to our second blog hop, woo hoo!! 
 This is a party you will NOT want to miss.  

We are delighted to share with you some of the amazing images Dustin Pike, illustrator of all DoodleDragon Studios designs.  This day marks the anniversary of Dustin's 2 years on his blog and we, the DoodleDragon Crew want to show you some of the fabulous Blog-iversary images you can get for a "fantastic price", offer is good for a limited time, so go look.  Dustin is so generous with his images.

 Now, if you are new with digital images you will be happy to hear that they are easy to use, store and print out.  You can resize them and then print on your favorite paper.  Dustin not only gives you Black and White images but sometimes even throws in the coloured versions too, how cool is that!!!

You can locate these images HERE  as well as many more. 
207 images for ONLY $20.00 USD during the blog hop ONLY

Now I personally have been beavering away in the studio with Copics, Pencils and all manner of crafty goodies using some of Dustin's awesome new images.........

DOODLEDRAGON STUDIOS - FARM SET
Here's the full picture from yesterdays teaser - aren't they just the cutest pigs, and they have lots of friends down on the farm......

I used Caran D'Ache Supracolor Soft pencils on chocolate sugar paper.

DOODLEDRAGON STUDIOS - PARTY MONSTER SET




He's bright, he's fun & he's been invited to a party - can you tell?  It was really hard choosing which monster to use - I loved them all!!

Once again I used Caran D'Ache pencils, but on my usual white card - as you can see, the colours just JUMP out at you!!!





DOODLEDRAGON STUDIOS - HIPPOS SET



Now, you didn't honestly think I'd abandoned my Copics did you!!

The entire crew fell in love with this set & I am sure you will too - I've merged these guys using Photoshop Elements (pelican is not included in set).  It shows how versatile digi images are - you can alter their size, orientation & with the help of a graphics program make up little scenes!

AND if you bought the April 7th release there is a 50% off code in the file that would make the blogiversary 10 bucks...Thru Saturday ONLY.  After Saturday night they get split into sets and will be available at a different price.  Don't wait, get in on the Blog-iversary NOW.
