Welcome to the InkPaperStamps Parade Plaza on beautiful Party Avenue, where Flag Day Giveaway kicks off at 9 am CT on Flag Day, June 14 (running through June 17).
Festooned in bunting, the Plaza has never seemed more lovely. And look over there–it’s a 350-piece marching band. . . and behind them, a procession of some of the most talented and generous bloggers we know!
Do you hear barking? It’s The Dog, clearing her voice in the announcer’s booth. Take a peek at her notes–she’s about to say ‘Ladies and gentlemen, sit back, relax and prepare to enjoy the Flag Day Giveaway parade, featuring our friends and this year’s giveaway hosts:

Great Holiday! We should all honor our flag and service men that protect it. Thanks for the opportunity to participate.
It’s a wonderful holiday and I am flying my flag proudly. My best friend also got married on this day, so I always associate them together. Of course there is also a flag at my father’s gravesite, he was a proud Marine.
I remember learning about flag day the customs and the ‘rules’ as my daughter puts in when I was in school do they still teach flag courtesy and etiquette ? Thanks for remindinng me how important it is….
Hey Holly and the Dog – i think it is fabulous that you put together this blog hop celebrating our flag and our country! so sweet of you. i love the chance to win goodies and all that red, white and blue inspiration to go along with – can’t be beat
Thanks so much for all that you do for our Heroes! Thanks for choosing this day for the start of this awesome hop!
I love this idea! What a great way to celebrate Flag Day- which is often lost in the shuffle.
This is cool. When I was coming home from work Tuesday morning there were all kinds of flags flying. It was really cool.

This is neat! I see flags everywhere…We sure fly them proudly and be proud of the men and women who defend our country so we can be free:).
I love the american flag and anything americana-just reminds me of our freedom and to pray for those that put their lives on the line to for us everyday-THANK YOU! WAVE THE FLAG PROUDLY!!

Hello,
I agree with everyone, what a great holiday (although it does not receive the attention it deserves). And this is a fun idea!
So thankful for the flag and all that it stands for. It is great to have a day where we can remember the flag and those who are serv ing so that we might fly it.
Holly, you are too funny! Thanks for the “hop o’ prizes.”

What a delightful event this is. My husband is a decorated Vietnam veteran, so I always rally around the red, white and blue! God Bless our Troops!
