Happy Birthday Grill Master Card by Farhana Sarker

A Birthday BBQ! 

Today Farhana has created a card that's perfect a summer birthday, complete with BBQ!

This fun card features the grill and accessories from our  Dad's BBQ Stamp Set. She colored them in fun bright colors and used the coordinating Dad's BBQ Die Set to cut the images out.

She then created a shaker card to go with the images. She used the sunshine paper from our Summertime Paper Pad as her card front and cut a circle out of it using our Circle Frames Die Set to frame the shaker. In the back of the shaker she used the big circle image from our BBQ Roundabout Stamp Set, embossed in white. She added some colored inks over the top to match with her color theme and then added the grilling accessories along with some sequins into the shaker window. 

She added the sentiment, split onto two banners that were both cut out using our Banner Trio Die Set.

Birthday BBQ Card by Ellen Haxelmans

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!

Girls Grill Too Card by Larissa Heskett

Girls Grill Too! 

Do you know any ladies who like to grill? Today we are sharing a feminine grilling themed card by Larissa that would be perfect for them!

She created this card by first stamping the large circle image of grilling accessories from our BBQ Roundabout Stamp Set. She colored the images in fun bright colors with a color palette that has a bit of a feminine touch with bright purples added in. She then cut a purple gingham circle to go behind it using the big scalloped circle from our Circle Frames Die Set. She embossed the birthday sentiment from the Dad's BBQ Stamp Set onto a purple banner that was die cut using the small rounded rectangle from our A7 Frames & Banners Die Set and added that to the front.

Next, she created a white card base and stamped the individual images from the Dad's BBQ Stamp Set along the bottom to make a random pattern. She added black and purple splatters along with some iridescent gems to add fun detail. Then she layered the big circle image on top. 

What a great way to combine our two BBQ themed sets for a card that is perfect for a female grill master!
