I thought Just Add Ink sketch #365 could lend itself to using my Let's BBQ set. I wanted the finished card to have a masculine feel, so I picked a colour combo accordingly from the ColourQ list I have on hand. I selected combo #39: Night of Navy, Real Red, Bravo Burgundy and Brocade Blue.
I stamped the card front with the Flannel Plaid background, one of my favorites in my background collection. For the main panel, I embossed the burgundy cardstock using the new Pinewood Planks embossing folder. With the colour and texture, it looks just like a deck! I wanted a fun French sentiment and couldn't find anything specific enough, so I pulled out my typewriter and created my own sentiment, which reads "Happy birthday to the king of the grill."
