Boot-scootin’ Along with a Challenge and a Weekly Wow

Published by Michele Boyer at 8:38 am under My Designs, My Favorite Things

TGIM! It’s my favorite day of the week! Not so quiet today though as the kids have no school until Wednesday. But that’s ok. Maybe they will provide inspiration for another “Just Sayin” post.  :)  By the way, I’ll be tying in one of those with my Wednesday post this week.  And before I get to today’s post, I just want to say thanks for all of your wonderful and very supportive comments on my coloring/flower fiasco on my last post.  You guys are the best!  :)

Today -Friday (1/9):  Buy the spring and winter ribbon bundles (25 yards per bundle) at $11.95 each and get the two matching digital paper packs from the Stephanie Fizer line for FREE.   (Spring pack here, winter pack here.)  The digital paper packs are super easy to use.  You can find a great tutorial on how to access/print them here (Parts I-V). 

Just use Code MFTRIBBONWOWat checkout.  If you already have the spring and winter digi-packs, you can choose two different ones (valued at $3.95 each)!

Today’s “Who’s That Girl” challenge is to use Ride Em’ Cowgirl with a red, white and blue color combo.  I printed the flowered paper from Stephanie Fizer’s summer paper pack and the stripes from the Simply Spring Collection-Horizontal Stripes.  Image is colored with Copic markers.  (No paper-piecing!  I do believe that’s a first!)

Thanks so much for stopping by!
