I used the Number Junque, Spring Circus, Quaterfoil, & Chevron kits from Rhonna Designs.
In Horse Racing, the first place horse Wins, the 2nd place horse Places, and the 3rd place horse Shows. Hence; Win, Place, Show are terms you hear a lot at the track.
I just made simple lollies (or rosettes is that what they are called??) using 3 strips of 12″ wide scrapbook paper. I have the Martha Stewart scoring board which made the whole job really easy.
A few of the lollies are punched (also a Martha Stewart product) on the edge to give them some decoration.
I hot glued plastic horses on to them… I can’t decide, if the plastic horses are cool, or just taking it a bit too far… but I like ’em. (maybe next year I’ll spray paint them gold *wink*)

I just found your website and I love all the cute Derby things you make. I live in Louisville as well and am always looking for new decor for my derby party. Thanks for all the inspiration.
How did you make scallops on the edges of the. Folded paper? Pinch before or after folding? Paper punches? So pretty and want to make them for quilt show awards with sewing theme. Thanks.
