Birthday BBQ!

Today Ellen is sharing how to celebrate a birthday with fun BBQ! This unique birthday greeting is sure to make the recipient smile! 

For this food filled birthday card, Ellen looked through all of her stamps with food themes and chose a fun combination of images. She stamped and colored the grill, burger, hot dog and grilling tool from the Dad’s BBQ Stamp Set, cutting them out with the coordinating Dad’s BBQ Die Set. Then She added in the kitty with the full belly and the turkey leg from our Newton’s Thanksgiving Stamp Set, cutting those images out with their coordinating Newton’s Thanksgiving Die Set as well. She added a chefs hat to the kitty, stamping it from the Newton’s Kitchen Stamp Set and cutting it out with the Newton’s Kitchen Die Set. What a fun pairing of food themed goodies! 

For her card base she created a square card and layered a green rounded corner square and red scalloped square onto the card using our Frames Squared Die Set. Inside the smaller square she created her scene, adding hills  and grass using our Land Borders Die Set. She also added fun rays to the sky using the Sunscape Stencil with blue ink.

To make this into a birthday card, she added "Happy Birthday" from the Dad’s BBQ Stamp Set, embossing it in white onto a red banner that was cut out using the little banner from the A7 Frames & Banners Die Set. You can make almost any card into a birthday card just by adding a birthday sentiment!
