Friday Freebie: Stage Your Blog Clip Art

It's been a while since my last blog, so I figure I'd better have a good lure for you folks. How 'bout something free? Free is good, right?

Behold, the mighty multitude of AR BLOG ART!

For your non-commercial* use, I give you these fun images to beef up your blog, excite your email, caress your comments and pretty up those posts! As the creator, I authorize you to use/manipulate/publish these images as you desire, with the exception of selling them (*that's what I mean by non-commercial*) to some poor schmuck who doesn't know he could have had the whole hog free. While I do not ask you give me credit for the art, don't claim authorship yourself (that's just tacky) and back-links are nice but not needed. Offer applies to Blue & Red states, so no need for wrasslin'.

W O W ! That's 26 free images! Who loves ya baby?

Quick FAQs:

"How did you make these?"

In Adobe Illustrator CS3, a vector based graphic software program. Or magic, that works too. (twitching nose)

"Can you customize this for me?"

Yes, but I will need to get paid for custom work! Email me for a quote!

Now isn't that Generous and Creative........or is it Creative and Generous! Thank You!

Thank you, I took a few. I usually do not use any graphics on the posts at all. But times change, let's see. Anyway, beautiful work. If I ever use, I will give you credit every time I do that.

Thanks

Hi Audrey, Thanks a bunch, bookmarked!

Liz: Why not Creative Genius? lol :)

Jon: A little art can help split up a lot of text, give the eyes a little something else to rest on. Try it, you'll like it!

Lynda: You're welcome!

I love them! Thanks!

Hi Audrey -- thanks for sharing your creative talent w/us. When I use these little nuggets (and I will) I'll definitely give you your props.

Thanks Audrey, bookmarked for future use.

Audrey;

Once again your talent genius shines through! I love these!!! Sure wish I had your gift.

Cheers!

Audrey ~ That is so cool and nice of you! You did so many I'm just going to bookmark the post! I can't wait to use some in my blog posts!

Audrey, thanks for sharing your clipart. I have it bookmarked should the need arise.

I'm all over the tiki party graphic. That should come in handy. Theme blog parties, I freaking love it!

Audrey- You are too fun! LOVE them all!

thanks

Audrey- you talented gal! Thanks for the offer. You keep us smiling... Kathy

Amy -- Enjoy!

Lanette -- Can't wait to see how you use 'em :)

Bob E.--Glad you like 'em

Gina--I do talent time shares and have some openings in May, if you're interested ;)

Kathy P.--Looking forward to seeing how you "stage" your blog with them!

Bob C.--There's always a need for blog fun :)

Paul--I knew you freaking would!

Elaine--I see you're already all over it! LOL

Kathy R.-- <smiling back>

Audrey...

This is very nice of you. However in your own best interest you should request that when folks use them they disclose that you made them and have them throw you some think love.

Should I choose to use any of them...The bottom of my post will read:

TLW...ROAR!

Awesome, thanks for taking the time to do that Audrey. Know that if I use your image I've got your back (link).

TLW--So be it!

Listen up folks, TLW is putting this "Image...Courtesy of Audrey Hoffman at SimplyStage"

at the bottom of any posts that utilize my imagery and so should you!

ROAR

Rebecca--Much obliged :)

Audrey thanks for the gifts! you are my new best friend!

Klarque--Wow, and to think I didn't even have to bake cookies!

Audrey, you are a:

hidden gem

Thank you!

Tina in Virginia

Cool! Thanks!

Nice artwork-thanks!

Audrey is back! Good to be reading a post from you again. For minute there,I thought you left us. Graphics look very,very nice. Welcome back superstar. Great post.

Thanks for taking the time to do this Audrey!

Darleen--You're welcome! Gotta keep my Rain buddies coming back for more!

Tina--(blushing)

Christina--Hope you find some fun ways to use 'em!

Cindy--Glad ya like it!

Lanre--Now, you know I couldn't stay gone forever, Mr. DC Realty :) Thanks, fellow SUPERSTAR!

Kristi--I really should have been "working," but my grandfather taught me that before you extend your hand to receive, extend it out with an offer. So here's my gift to ya'll!

I have this program - but have not played with it much - thanks for sharing - best of luck with pulling in a few extra dollars

Audrey - These are great! Thank you. I am new to active rain. I am trying to dress up my localism post with some kind of cool tag sale clip art. I was wondering where all the cool clip art comes from and how to use wmf files, etc., so I did a search on clip art and up came your post.

Your grandfather should be very proud of you! My grandfather taught me the same thing, he was always doing for others, and hopefully someday when I am better at this blogging, I will be able to return the favor to you.

Audrey, you rock! Thanks for sharing, I'm bookmarking this post.

Okay Audrey...I want to make those reservations...I would like the grand suite of course...

You are such an awesome talent! I so enjoy seeing your blogs!

Cheers!

Very cute, just used a couple on my profile page, which needs some work, thanks!

Thesa--It's a tricky program at first, but if you know InDesign & Photoshop, you'll get the hang of it!

Deborah--Many thanks! I'll be checking out your blog as it grows!

Mike--Glad to help!

Gina--:)

Cindy--Awesome, I'll be checking it out!

Julianna--You're welcome! BTW, need to email you a question, good reminder!

Lisa Marie, Monika & Mary Lou --Free is always the key word, right? :)

Audrey, It's Audrey! Just thought that would sound funny. I have missed you and I have been gone since last week. I need to get blogging again!! Thanks again for sharing your talents with us!! You are the best!

You give great gifts! I'll enjoy taking advantage of your generosity and using some of your artwork. Thanks very much.

Audrey--I feel the blogging is like bike riding; you may take a break, but it comes back when you're ready! PS--I once worked with another Audrey in a 30-person office. You can bet that got confusing! She was my same age, older just by months. Audrey's an interesting name like that---it's not as common as some names, but yet not completely unique---so when there is another one in close proximity, it can be a bit boggling! When I lived near Rittenhouse Square, I used to hang out in the park where a woman had a Jack Russell named Audrey. Can you believe it? I never thought of my name as a dog name!! Very annoying when trying to read a book and you hear, "Audrey! Audrey! Cck cck ckk! Here, Audrey!" Geez. You'd better have a good treat for me when I get over there!

Audrey, Thanks for sharing your creativity with us. I saved quite a few of them to my clip folder. That was so sweet of you to share them.

Thanks,

Brian

Great job Audrey... These are great and thank you for the opportunity to share them.

Susie--And to think, it's not even Christmas!

Marchel--You're always welcome!

Brian--MUY CALIENTE!

Roland--You're welcome. Your only responsibility is to use them in creative ways!

Natalie--I think that's a nice range, cute to cool, keeping the pH balanced. :)

Thanks so much! How cool!!!! I like your comment about this is available for "red and blue" states.

Tori--I was wondering if anyone caught that!;)

Audrey,
Cool! Thanks a bunch...these will come in handy.

Cynthia--Yep, never know when you might need a graphic!

Hi Audry, I was looking for a button. These look great.

I entered this newbie contest on AR. I was looking for a button to get people to click and join AR. Deborah Lint, who commented was familiar with your blog and recommended it.

BTW, the contest ended last night. sorry, too late for you.

AUDREY - I haven't been around much, but it's nice to come back and see that your creativity is still one of the most unique aspects of AR. Nicely done!
