Masthead #32 – Woodland creatures (plus, bonus contest!)
Now that I have a job where making mastheads during my downtime can’t be attributed to “employee development” (“I’m learning PhotoShop!”), I make them at home. Only I don’t want to spend my nights and weekends hogging the computer.
So we all lose.
This masthead was supposed to be real. “Real” in that I was trying to find an image of a real tree, with a real heart carved into it. But the stupid free photography sites don’t have photographers who cater to my every whim! The nerve!
So, you get clip art instead. I’m sorry.
But, lucky you, I’m already done with July’s masthead and I’m going to have a contest.
If you can guess the theme of July’s masthead, you win a prize.
Here’s your one hint: it’s based on a video game.
Good luck!
One guess per person, please. All entries must be received by 5:00 p.m. CST on Tuesday, June 30, 2009. One winner will be selected randomly from all correct entries. Residents of Brazil and Chad are not eligible. Void where prohibited.


I’m going with Mario, since that’s what my kids play all the time.

Um and I do realize that it’s Invaders not Envaders. Man am I tired. Ugh.

Asteroids! Actually, I was thinking space invaders but it looks like Emily beat me to it.

I was going to guess Mario. Like maybe the blocks would hold dimes (and pickles?) instead of gold coins.
My second guess would be… Tetris? Yoshi? Final Fantasy? Ok, that’s three more guesses. But they’re also some of my favorite games. A girl can hope.

Frogger! (Guess that shows you what video game era I’m from!)

All the likely suspects are taken, so I will say Donkey Kong.

Legend of Zelda FTW!! Um, yeah, I’m old, too.

Tetris. Oddly shaped pickles and dimes fused together. I can see it now!

I’ll guess Centipede.

I’m going with Combat – you know, the one from the Atari era.

Sonic the Hedgehog? I have no idea. Video games are my son’s department.

I have no clue, so I’m going to say Pong just because Pong is inherently funny. At least to me.

Umm. The only video game I know is Mario Kart. So I’ll go with that.
