The Texas girl

Remember that Real Simple magazine I read last night?

As I flipped through it's pages I came across a few wonderful drawings that were a part of an article and I knew at once I wanted to figure out how to get them framed and on my walls.

So this afternoon I carefully cut out 4 of them, scanned them, cleaned them up in photoshop and printed them onto white cardstock.

Next, I had to decide which one would go in the frame I had on hand.

It just had to be the Texas girl. Right?

Isn't she wonderful?!

Here she is framed up and waiting for me to make the rounds of the house and decide on the place she'll hang out.

And here's my gal in her new home - next to my bathroom sink. I love her!

And I'm also happy that I did this for FREE!! Well, almost free. The magazine was $4.

Oh, I'm in love with her. I can't wait to meet her in person.

This is so cute! What a great idea. Also, RS is my favorite magazine. When it comes in the mail, I set it aside until I can find two hours to do nothing but lounge around and read it.
