Going to Rio With the Olympic Darlings!

Hi everyone!!
 
Here is our challenge from Debbie for this month:
 

In honor of the upcoming Rio Olympics the theme this month is “Going to Rio With the Olympic Darlings!"
 
Kits for the Dazzlers include:
 
Image:  Penny Black “Gymnast Mimi”
 
DP:        Scrapbook Customs – "Cheerleading Star Field"
              Karen Foster – "Everything Gymnastics"
 
Embellishments:
  • Blue Twine from K&Co.
  • White Twine from Stampin’ Up!
  • Red/White Twine – dollar bin Michaels
  • Gold & Silver Cord – Stampin’ Up!
  • Star Brads – Stampin’ Up!
 
Here is my card:
 

I used the image and papers, along with 4 of the brads and all of the twine and cord.
 
We were also asked to share which is our favorite Olympic event. I would have to say that Gymnastics and Swimming are my favorites every 4 years :-) This card is being mailed to a friend to give to her daughter.....Maddy is in gymnastics classes and loves Gabby....plus her mom is getting her tickets to see the "Final Five" in October.

Thanks for stopping by!

  3. I love your card, Terry! This was a fun kit and I, too, love to watch Gymnastics and Swimming. How exciting to see the "Final Five". I remember watching Olga and Nadia when I was a young girl (a long, long time ago!) I'm sure the friend's daughter will love your cute card!
