  1. Ok, Wendy!  You know I am a sucker for your contest!!  I have several ideas!  I NEED (yes need!) multi colored stars like a combo of lime green, hot pink, sapphire, orange or yellow, purple...something bright and fun!  

    Then...lightening bolt ribbon would be awesome!!!  

    Checkered flags!!!  I am in a big racing town...from cars to bikes to motorcycles, so checkered flags would be awesome to cover all of them!!

    A "Rock Star" ribbon!  Something fun and funky with the words "Rock Star" and guitars and stars!  

    I know this may sound crazy to some, but an oil derrick!  I live in the heart of oil field country!  My daughters school mascot is "drillers".  

    It would be great to stop having to print the ribbon myself!  A Dr. Suesse inspired ribbon would be amazing!!!!  

    A ribbon with bows on it!!!  It could even say "I <3 bows"!

    A music inspired ribbon...music notes on a cord chart with some fun colors!  

    And finally...one very close to my heart would be a cystic fibrosis awareness ribbon...with red roses and the purple ribbon!  There are over 30,000 people with cystic fibrosis in the USA allow, not including the numbers worldwide!  I convinced another company to make the purple ribbons, but something with the roses would be amazing!!!!  

    Ok, have I offered up enough ideas. Lol. I've got more if you want them!!  Wendy...we should just sit down and brain storm!  Last time you asked us this, I suggested tattoo ribbon and you made it happen and it's my #1 seller!!  Go Wendy Go!!!

  2. I would like to see some cute rainbow ribbon! Fun Eiffel tower ribbon, herringbone with black/white, purple/blk, daffodils or tulips would be fun and springy! I too would love to see some Dr. Seuss inspired ribbon! I absolutely want to see some cute owl ribbon! I love love love owl!!!

  3. I am a frog nut! But all the frogs on ribbon I find look like it's made for a boy. What I would love is a print of "lady" frogs. Frogs wearing a pink bow around the neck, a tiara (not a crown, if you know what I mean) , a dainty tiara, or flower headband! Then a swirl in between each frog. The frog doesn't necessarily have to be green, right? We could have pink frog, Fuschia frog, or even purple frog with pink bows!

  4. I would love to see ribbon with gerber daisies and also loved the idea above about Dr. Suess theme ribbon. You can't find that anywhere!! Monkey ribbon for girls and boys would also be great!! Thanks Wendy for all you do!!

  5. I have a few ideas. What about Sesame Street themed, you do a character per 7/8 ribbon or mix on 1.5 them together, 3/8 you could put the street sign on white background. Oz themed, same as above but 3/8 would be a couple options... brick road, sparkly ruby slippers, flying monkeys. I also like the idea of sparkly spurs and belt buckles; we are in true cowboy area (our school mascot is the Puncher/Cowgirls) and this would be great. What about a garden theme with gnomes, flowers, patches of grass and some cute simple bugs like caterpillars? I could think up some more but I like all these enough to share.

  6. I would also like to see yellow brick ribbon and some oz themed. Also awareness ribbon, other than Breast cancer. I have had requests for other cancers. I'd personally like the ribbon for CDH, Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Research

  7. My first thought was my favorite university but that is probably copyrighted. My next thought was for our local schools, Hornets and Lions. How about initials? (you know one with all K's or all O's) My girls love pink camo and it is hard to find. Just some thoughts. Thanks for the contest. Mary

  8. OK, here is my list:
    Since I am in a beach area I would love to see Starfish, mermaids, seahorses, anchors and sand dollars (it would match Gymbo Greek Isles too)

    Palmetto trees in lots of colors

    Simple 2 color paisley blue/white, pink/white, orange/white

    Zebra metalics and solid color metalics for cheer bows (I get lots of requests for this)

    Hot dots Instead of just white dots on a single color, mix it up a little like Hot pink dots on Navy blue or Lime Green, Red dots on Black or Navy Blue, Lt Pink on Lt purple or yellow

  9. I'd love to see big sister, middle sister, little sister different from whats out there already. They are usually just a solid color with a solid color font. I'd like to see some designs on the ribbon with the print. You always do amazing work! Jessica DLS :)

  11. What about some scrolls or dots with gray/pink or gray/blue combo... or ribbon with a funky font that says "Daddy did my hair" I'd even love to see a funky diagonal stripes print with really loud colors :) margot

  14. Stick people or childlike drawings of happy faces kinda like a take on big sis, lil sis, happy family, etc, but in pictures and fun colors.

    Now in the other direction...more fun rocker chick stuff, orange and hot pink flames (maybe glittery) gothic crosses or a graphic print similar to gothic ironwork.
