Mr Muscleman !

Evening everyone, This particular card is made for my nephew/Godson..He is entering into a 'Mr Muscle' competition here in Mallorca. There will be about a 1000 people attending and is a very important event ! Its difficult enough finding images and DP's for this type of sport. So l roped in a few CB forum friends and after alot of searching was sent these papers and image sheets. l have used them all LOL ! Waste not Want not hehehe...l have used a aperture card, acetate, gold mirri card for matting and decoupaged all the images....l am entering this card into the following challenges...Cards For Men , The theme over there is 'Someone Special '...Over at Pollycraft Challenge, the theme is 'Boyz-to-Men'... At Crafty Catz , the theme this week is ' Quote or sentiment '....l have shown the inside of the card too ! ..Hugs susan x
