Stampin Up Way to Goat Simone Biles tribute card designed by demo Beth McCullough. Shop 24/7 and see more card and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/summer-olympics #stampingmom #cute&simple4u

This card is a tribute to Simone Biles, who is not only the best gymnast in the world, but she is the G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time)! The first time we saw Simone was as a fifteen year old in a gymnastic meet in Chicago. Steve and I were so impressed with her, but had no idea she would become so dominant in the sport of gymnastics. I was a gymnast growing up and have always loved gymnastics since I watched Nadia earn a perfect 10 in the 1976 Summer Olympics. Shawn Johnson, the 2008 Olympian, is from our town, West Des Moines, IA. We followed Shawn’s career as well. I gained great respect the determination and dedication that it takes to make it to the Olympic level watching Shawn practice at Chow’s. Our kids took recreation gymnastics there, so we got to watch Shawn for many years.

In my card, Simone, the G.O.A.T. is dancing across the balance beam holding one of her many gold medals. 🙂

If you’re interested in watching Simone on TV, she’s on NBC Friday, June 25 at 7pm Central and Sunday, June 27 at 7:30pm. We are cheering for you Simone!!

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! It’s fun being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0128 is World Music Therapy Day which is March 2nd.

It was nice of Stampin’ Up to make the Way to Goat stamp set so I could make this card for Simone. I used the Playful Alphabet for her name. The beam was created with the In Good Taste DSP. There is a list of all the products I used at the bottom of this post. Please leave a comment or email me at Beth@StampingMom.com if you have any questions.
