October 50% off Anniversary Blog Hop

Thanks for joining us today, the last day of October and Halloween for those of us who celebrate it.    Even though it's Trick or Treat day, we're supplying all the treats - and no tricks!

Instead of the usual new release blog hop, we're celebrating Dude Time Doodle's second anniversary with a 50% off Anniversary Blog Hop. 

There are over 35 Christmas images (37, if you want to be exact) that are on sale, beginning at 10am EST.  The 50% off sale price will be reflected on the store site, so no coupon code is needed and even better, the sale goes through Nov 13.

The blog hop will run as normal - with no specific beginning or ending.  Just visit all the Dude and Dudettes to see which of the Christmas images they have chosen to help inspire/tempt you.  Be sure to leave a comment with every one of us because you never know who the Mystery Host will be.  The winner of a DTD image will be chosen from comments left on the Mystery Host's blog.

To get you in the shopping mood, Nancy has created a cute card with Kris Jingle.

Just in case you get lost along the way (or Blogger acts up, as it occasionally does), here's the list of blogs for your hopping pleasure.

October's SPECIAL Wednesday Treat!

Welcome to Dude Time Doodles,
we're so glad you stopped. 
Several times each year through the magic of numbers, we have five Wednesdays in a month and October happens to be one of those months. When that happens the Dude and the Dudettes let out a collective cheer because they have an extra week to goof off. 
This month, our resident artist gifted us with two images  and we decided it would be fun to check in with some of our former designers, guest designers and members of the team that would like to use 
Bedazzled Beth and/or The Great Punkin! 
We are so pleased to have such a great response so without further ado, please enjoy what we've created for you. If you enjoy their inspirations, please click on their links and leave them a comment!

With great pleasure, I introduce you to this month's

guest designer, Esther!

I am a wife, mother, grandmother. I like to hike, water ski, bake and of course craft, craft, craft. I especially love paper crafting whether it is making cards, layouts, home decor, and more.  I have been blogging for almost 2 years now and really love it.  It is fun to not only share my creations but to be inspired by others. In fact I am sure my hubby would tell you I spend to much time on the computer. I feel like I have made many friends since I started blogging and have enjoyed sharing my passion with them.

I am so excited to get the chance to be a guest designer for Dude Time Doodles!!!! Just love all there fun images.

As a ten year breast cancer survivor I'd also like to shout out a HUGE thank you to them for sponsoring Link Up For Pink!!

That's it for today, so no
 excuses, get busy crafting and show us your home improvement dude! 

Thank you!

September New Release Blog Hop

Let's give a warm Dudeville Holla welcome to the newest characters (I mean Dudes) moving into the neighborhood.  One of the guys must not have gotten the email about dressing up in his favorite costume (or maybe the email didn't get sent and this is their everyday attire).  You decide and let us know.  Whichever way you decide, it's time for the Dude Time Doodles September New Release Blog Hop.  They will all be available in the DTD store by 10am EST.

Our blog hop is circular, meaning there is no specific beginning or ending.  Just keep going until you've visited each of the Dude/Dudettes.  Be sure to leave a comment with each of us as one of us is the Mystery Host.  The lucky winner of a DTD image will be chosen from that person's comments.  No one knows who it is. 

As we get new Dudes moving into Dudeville Holla, every now and then we also have to say goodbye.  Today is one of those days when we need to say "see you later" to one of the Dudettes - Charlene.  This is her last post as a Dudette and we hate to see her go, but know that we'll be seeing her around blogland.  Thanks so much Charlene for all the wonderful creations you've inspired us with.

Now on to the hop.  Here's a sneak peak of Twyla Twilight from Sharon. 

Your first stop should be Mags.  In case of technical difficulties, here's the Blog Hop list for your hopping pleasure:
