The Final Showdown: Undeniably Yours!

Posted on by Katie Ganshert

undeniably yoursWell, ladies and gentleman, we have reached the final battle in the Pinterest War between me and my good friend, Becky Wade.

And this week’s challenge is too much fun for it’s own good.

In celebration of Becky’s newest release, Undeniably Yours, which hits shelves this Wednesday, we will be recreating the book cover with our honeys and posting our results this Friday.

Let me just tell you, it’s going to be epic.

To make things a little more interesting, we’re giving away prizes!

  • One person will win a $20 gift certificate to their choice of Amazon or Barnes and Noble
  • One person will win a copy of Undeniably Yours by Becky Wade
  • One person will win a copy of Wishing on Willows by Katie Ganshert

So grab a pair of pink shoes, a white dress, and your camera!

Some of you might be thinking, “Now wait a minute. No fair. I’m single!”

Don’t let this stop you!

We’re all for creativity.

Hold hands and jump in the air with your best girlfriend (although this may be dangerous with high heels).

Cuddle up with your four-legged furry friend.

We’re giving you full creative license to make this cover your own.

Just make sure to post your photo on a social media site and tag me and/or Becky so we can see it. Then come back here and leave a comment letting us know you posted a photo. Every re-created cover gets five entries into the hat.

If you’re thinking, “I’m not a fan of taking pictures.” Then no worries! You can still have a shot at winning.

Tweet or post on Facebook about this final battle, come back here and let us know what you did, and that gets you one entry into the hat.

I’m in Africa this week (yep, you heard that right), so I won’t be drawing the three winners until I return on Tuesday, May 7th. Which means you have plenty of time to participate!

Let’s all help Becky celebrate the release of her book with a bang!

Let’s Talk: What battle have you enjoyed the most?

Battle Seven Results: Creepy

Posted on by Katie Ganshert

smokey eyesThis is what we’ve learned from battle seven:

  • Close up pictures of non-airbrushed eyes are super creepy.
  • My eyelashes look like spider legs.
  • There’s a reason cheap makeup is cheap.

Becky and I give this one a B- for easiness.

Maybe an A for the kind of fun a person might have wearing this much make-up.

And a B- for beauty/resemblance to the original.

Although me thinks we might be being generous with ourselves on that last one!

We have one last Pinterest Battle to go and let me tell you, ladies and gents, this one is going to be amazing! Don’t miss out as we celebrate the release of Becky’s newest, Undeniably Yours, in major style!

Battle Seven: Smokey Eyes

smokey eyeIf you can believe it, we’re already on the seventh battle in an eight-battle war!

We have this week and next (which is the release of Becky Wade’s newest, Undeniably Yours) and then the Pinterest fun is over!

It’s my turn to throw down a challenge.

And I must say, I’ve always wanted to learn how to do a smokey eye.

So this week’s challenge involves makeup.

Apparently, to accomplish the smokey eye look, a person is in need of some mascara, eye liner, and some charcoal-type eye shadow.

We’ll see how it goes! I’ve never been that savvy in the make up department, so this ought to be fun.
