This is my card for the WT521 challenge "Hoop It Up" - Sabrina asked us to use circle in our project in honor of the Hula Hoop's 52nd birthday. I was a Hula Hoop champ back in the day - it was one of my favorite activities, along with rollerskating and riding my bike.
Let me be clear - I did NOT color this image! It's a beautiful sticker from Penny Black that I've had for a long time. Everything else on the card is self explanatory, but I need to give shout out to Nancy (stiz2003) for the silver nailheads. Thanks, friend!
As always, thanks for looking!

Jody, this is just SO beautiful!! I recognised the sticker straight away - years ago I bought about 5 sheets of different PB stickers - you have inspired me to get them out and use them!!!

It's still hard to believe that's a sticker and how gorgeous it is! I've never seen these before but sure wish I had! What a beautiful card you created with it too!

Woo hoo, Jody, cleaning out your stash, now, are you? Well, this sticker is a real treasure and I think you hid it on purpose before, but boy, are we glad to see you pulled it out and made this beauty!! Perfectly matched papers and the nailheads give it such character!!
I can picture you as a rollerskating, hula hooping young gal ! Must have been fun being one of your friends with all the activity going on!!

Beautiful!! I mostly have the PB stickers in stamp images that I wouldn't buy the stamp, but I love the more arty ones. A beautiful CAS layout and a very elegant card.

Jody, your center piece is exquisitely done! You used your beautiful sticker to perfection...and glad you said something about it being a sticker since I would not have doubted for one minute that you had created this lovely watercolored collage! : ) The green you chose enhances it wonderfully.
