craftymamma said...

Mryia said...

Oh my! So many great cards! I don't know how I could ever pick just one!

I definitely need to order Team Canada because my daughter is going on a student ambassador trip there this Summer. I love all the layering possibilities with the little alien stamps (like Jeanette created today with her card) and of course the dragons are always a favorite (Lacey's card with Dragon Go Round today made me add that stamp to my must order list).

Thanks for coming out with so many new great images!

Rhonda said...

This has been a lot of fun. Everyone did such an amazing job on the cards. How can you possibly pick a favorite. All of Dustin's images are to die for. I love his dragons and monkeys. I have been following Dustin for quite a while. Love the idea of his images in rubber. AWESOME! Thank you so very much for this!

Callie said...

Great hop! The ladies did some amazing things with the new DP images. LOVE them all! My favorite is the dragon on the carosel horse though. :)

Kathleen said...

This was a great hop! MY favorite are alll the monkey stamps and cards made with them. They will be my 1st purchase unless I just happen to win them!!

jan farnworth said...

loved all the great cards in the hop. my favorite was the monkey but i love all dustin stuff that why i have such a large collectino in digital. I of course snagged the rubber dinos that he pit out thru paper make up so i wil have to get some these to.

Vicki Sopcak said...

I liked Danielle's card the best....Troubled Travis and her color scheme really flowed nicely!!! My second choice would be the monkey with the cupcake.

Renata van Miltenburg said...

I had to laugh about these fun images AND sentiments! I'm crazy about good sentiments. My favourites which where hard to pick are the monkey with the cupcake and the dragon with bandages.

Succes with this release! And congratulations to Dustin with this succes!

Warmest regards,

Renata

Gloria said...

Wow, just finished the hop and the images are all so awesome and could never pick just one. Want them all!!!

MiamiKel said...

Oh that was so much fun!! The new stamps are just glorious! I really enjoyed them all, but have to say the Merry-Go-Round Dragon was just amazingly cute and versatile! So happy to see Dustin's Stamps available - thank you! That was a wonderful hop :)

Ida said...

What a fun blog hop that was. All the images are really cute but being a cat lover I've got to go with Scuba Kitty as my favorite.

Unknown said...

My first Blog Hop- I loved it, as I now have more sites saved as Favorites. I also have many of Dustin's Digi's, and love the new ideas. My only prob was, I couldn't locate the link to add a comment on Alex's blog. I'm either blind, or need translating software :(

Tammy Hershberger said...

Wow, what great designs! LOVE all those space aliens, and Danielle's cute dragon ROCKS! (And hey, keep me in mind anytime you need an addition to your team! My commitments are light right now, and High Hopes would be AWESOME to design for!)

Jennifer Moore said...

Thanks for the blog hop. That was fun.

*Alison* said...

THANK YOU so much for this amazing hop.. it was so inspiring and fun!!! I Loved seeing all the new creations and the beautiful and fun images that Dustin has brought to HH stamps.. :)

Great hop! Loved all the cards...so much inspiration!

It was REALLY hard to pick a fav. I had it narrowed down to three!! LOL! But I think my ultimate fav is Troubled Travis. Especially with the sentiment that is seemed like a good idea at the time! Just perfect!

Thanks for a chance to win!

Amanda said...

I don't think I can choose just one favorite so how about a top 3: Dwight,
Scuba Kitty, and Bedtime Bear.

Wilfreda said...

I think my favorite has to be Sir Dustin or maybe Troubled Travis. It's so hard to choose.

PeeJay said...

Bedtime bear has got to be my favorite. It's so cute and very versatile. Can see loads of uses for that stamp!

I hit the wrong button and delted my post. Sorry ladies! Let me try this again. What a great, no wait, amazing blog hop! I have only been creating with stamps this past year and wow what an amazing difference it makes to a card. The ladies have once again outdone themselves. The addition of Dustin Pike to your design team is a wonderful and very smart choice. Is designs are stunning to say the least. I love many of these stamps, but my favorites are Sir Dustin, and Troubled Dragon. He is so adorable. I would not complain at all to have any of these stamps on my shelf, but than again who would. They are amazing. Didn't realize you were a Canadian company and now I know I really need to order some stamps. Thanks again ladies. May God continue you on this great business venture you have going here. Blessings
