Shopping Our Stash Challenge: Never Been Inked or Neutral color theme


Hello!  This week at Shopping Our Stash we are asking you to dig out a stamp or digi that you have not inked or printed/colored before- OR create something with a neutral color theme!  That should give everyone the chance to play along!

Also, we are thrilled to welcome Dilly Beans Stamps as a sponsor!   Megan has the cutest images and some that are spooky-cute too- something for everyone.  Such a fun variety!  Also she soon will be having a regular challenge blog too so  go sign up now!

One lucky randomly selected winner will get to select 5 digis from Dilly Beans Stamps! How fabulous is that!




Megan kindly allowed us to pick and image to play with, and here is what the SOS Crew created!  Some chose also to use a neutral theme in addition to using a never-before inked image.

Shopping Our Stash Challenge 24: Cowboys/County/Western/ Sports


How 'bout them Cowboys?  When I first came up with this challenge I was thinking of FOOTBALL season because that's what crisp, fall weather feels like to me!  Being from Texas and growing up watching the Cowboys, it was common for that phrase "how 'bout them Cowboys" to be heard quite often!

Just taking a moment to remember the glory days of Roger Staubach...


Thank you.


So that's where the idea for a challenge to use anything sports related, cowboy related  came from- and we stretched it to include anything CLOSE to cowboys or sports!  Think horses,  cows, ranches, farms, pick up trucks, tailgates, cowboys/cowgirls, cattle, bulls, rodeo, saddles, OR anything to do with sports- football, soccer, swimming, fishing, yoga, racing, cheerleading, skating,  walking, jogging, etc.  See how easy this is?

This week the SOS Crew came up with these for your inspiration:


Paige



Alica



Carla



Crystal



Danni



Deena





June



Leslie




Lisa




So saddle up this week and join in! I am sure if you dig thru your stash you can find SOMETHING that works for this challenge!  Thanks for stopping by!
