Fabulous Cheerleader Shaped Card...

Hi there, Crafters!  I am here to share another card I finished a couple of days ago.  The main image is from Bugaboo Digi Stamps and I colored her with my Promarker and Prismacolor markers  quite a bit ago. She is so cute in her glittered outfit and pompoms that I thought I had to make a unique card to highlight her beauty so, this is what I came up with...A nice funky-shaped card.  I remember seeing this Card style in several blogs that I visited (don't remember now) and saw how beautiful they are so, I thought this would be the best time to highlight my colored Bugaboo image.  With the use of my Cricut, I cut several circles in different sizes using the Mini Monogram cartridge and the sentiment "Fabulous" with the Paisley cartridge.  I also used my new Nesties Scallop Circle (been wanting to buy some for many months now and finally I had the budget). After matting, stitching each layer, I attached some Prima flowers with pearls in their center, die-cut some leaves using my EK Success punch, punched a button with my MS Punch and attached a ribbon to it, incorporated some gems for extra dimension.  I used 2 DP's and several shades of pink, black and metallic silver CS to complete this project.  The finished card measures 5.5-inch height by 5.25-inch length.  Pretty cool, huh! This card is entered into the following Challenges:

I am totally happy with this card and it's one of those creation that I can look at that would make me smile...Sometimes, I don't feel like spending much time making a card. I sure can make very simple ones but where is the fun in it?  I spend hours making my projects with occasional sleepless nights too but afterwards, I know that they are projects I can be proud of.  Anyway, I thank the Lord Jesus for all the inspiration to make wonderful projects and without Him, all of these creation would be meaningless.  So, Father God, I give you all the glory and honor for all that you've allowed me to accomplish each day.  Looking forward to hearing your comments.  Have a wonderful week.
