Looks like we have a few masochists joining HoHoDooDa this year. Below are the names and links of said participants (at least any who have left their name and link to where they are posting their doodles, in the comments here.) If I’ve missed anyone or your link is not working or any other proof of my heinous lack of organizational skills, please let me know and I’ll do my best to fix it.
Let’s get doodling!

BADA-BING BADA-WHOOOOOO!
RACE AGAINST TIME
Despite strenuous training and conditioning, Murgatroid found it difficult to beat the clock.
The Illustration Friday theme for this week is “Time.” So, since it is 11:00 pm on Thursday, with only an hour left to post… time is running out!
Another wee redraw of last year’s “Mice Skates”
Skate on over here and check out my fellow HoHoDooDaers!
Didn’t get a doodle done today because I was finishing up my holiday cards. (Yeah, it’s tradition to be this late, thank you very much!)
So although it’s a bit of a cheat I decided to repost this from a couple of years ago. Thought it might be appropriate.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………
I love holiday cards. I love getting them, but most of all I like making them.
At least it starts out that way.
There’s the initial concept. Fun!
Sketching it up. Fun!
Drawing, painting, tweaking. Fun! Fun! Fun!
But then, there is the whole standing in line at the post office because I absolutely must have those special snowman stamps.
Followed by an attempt at addressing the cards and the subsequent admitting to people that I wrote their address on a scrap piece of paper last year and my cat batted it under the couch and apparently a spider drug it away to it’s nest, so could you pleeeeeeease give me your address for the fifteenth time… and I promise I’ll key it safely into my iPhone this time!
Couple that with the fact that I waited until pretty much the last minute, even though I promised last year and the year before that and the year… ok, the past ten years that I would start in August.
Before you know it, I’ve got a holiday card meltdown on my hands.
Does any of this sound familiar? Am I alone with this?
Anywho, fun? Not so much.
But despite the griping and moaning, after all is said and done, the truth is, it’s just not Christmas until I’ve sent off all my cards and, of course, I receive that very first card in the mail, be it Christmas, Hanukkah or Festivus (I’m still waiting for my first Kwanza card.)
I just love holiday cards!
It’s tradition! Every bit of it, from fun to meltdown and I hope it never goes away!
Now get yer elfin shoes over here to see what the other doodlers have in store for you!
(Click to enlarge.)
Nothing says Holidays like a wiener dog. Am I lying?
Anywho, why not stroll on by here to see what the other HoHoDooDa Doodlers are doing!
Undaunted by his recent breakup, Murgatroyd continues to troll for love.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
Murgatroyd and myself wish y’all a Merry Kissmas! Also a Happy Egg Snog (for our friends in the UK!)
Ok now, if you can tear yourself away from these groan-worthy puns, come on over here to see what my fellow HoHoDooDa doodlers are doing.
“Christmas Rapping”
(Click for larger view of Santa and his crew gettin’ down with their bad elves.)
Why not hip hop over here and see what the other HoHoDooDa Doodlers are up to!
Wasn’t able to squeeze out a doodle today, (hmmm, that didn’t sound quite right, did it?)
Anywho, I thought I’d post this guy from a couple of years ago. Also, it seemed like a wee bit of color was in order.
Hope y’all are having a great holiday season so far!
Why not stop on by here, to see what my fellow doodlers are up to.
“Prancing With the Stars”
Why not hoof it on over here and check out what my fellow HoHoDooDa doodlers are doing today.
Getting into sheep shape after missing a day!
So now I’m even borrowing from my own darn self. Redrew this from a sketch I did a few years ago.
Why not pour yourself a nice hot chocolate and stop on by here and check out what my fellow HoHoDooDa doodlers are doing.
“Cookie Sheet”
The puns are baaaaack!
When you get a chance swing on by here to see what my fellow HoHoDooDa doodlers are doing!
“PLYMOUTH ROCK!”
Thought I’d work in a few pilgrims in between stirring and sautéing for tomorrow.
Let’s take a peek at what the other SkADaMoers are up to over here.
Happy Day-Before Thanksgiving, y’all!
“Pigs in a Blanket”
Well at least two of them.
The lovely Laurel Gaylord of Studio Lolo suggested this porcine pun. One of a many other idioms and puns. A girl after my own heart, she is. Can’t wait to dig in to that list.
Stop on by here to see what the other SkADaMo participants are up to.
“Hot Dogging”
Well the only thing about Boswell that’s hot dogging is his tubular physique. He’s much more familiar with the snow plow than any sort of shredding.
Why not schuss on over here to check out my fellow SkADaMoers at work.
“Fruit Cocktail”
I know, groan, that’s a real stretch. But that’s how I roll!
Hey, why not check out how the other SkADaMoers are rolling today, right here.
“Retail Store”
“Does this tail make my butt look big?” Matilda queried the patient sales squirrel.
This is what popped into my fevered mind when I saw the Illustration Friday word of the week was “tail.”
Also, just wanted to mention that I’m getting some pretty cool ideas brewing for PiBoIdMo. A little excited.
Well, I may be falling slightly behind, but my fellow SkADaMoers are kicking some serious squirrel butt over here.
“Car Pool”
Cruise on over here to see some of the other SkADaMo participants.
“Swan Dive”
Just under the wire on this one!
Swing on by and check out my partners in crime here.
“Melon Collie”
What’s with all the dogs lately? At least that’s what my cat Iggy seems to be saying, as she stomps across my keyboard. So I added a feline counterpart, for fear of retribution.
So hey, stop on by here and check out what the other SkADaMoers are up to
“Piggy Bank Tellers”
Swing by and take a gander at some of the other SkADaMo 2013 participants here.
Quickly eggsecuted and puns intended!
Happy Happy, everyone!!!
I think you’re a wise owl for being so clever in thinking all this up. Hugs, Lorlinda
Love your sketches!
So this book is write up my alley! Mr. Putney has a lot of animal friends, but you have to guess their names. The word play is a combination of illustrations and words with half of the joke coming from the text and half from the pictures. Some of the word play is easier than others, but all is amusing and some will have you laughing out loud. This book would be a stitch with a group of kids who enjoy reading and words. In fact, it would make a great basis of an art project or for a writing project to create their own puns.
He’s adorable!
Thanks, Julie!
Sooooooooo cute!!!!!
You are outdoing your own self! A real cutie!
