Birthday Card with Outdoor Barbecue - Leslie Larkin

Today, I’m sharing a Birthday Card with Outdoor Barbecue. Also, this cute set can be found in the Spring Mini Catalog and purchased from my online store. Too, the sentiments can be used for Valentine’s Day, Father’s Day and his Birthday.

Also, I am participating in the challenge with the Cardz 4 Galz Design Team. We are to use Kraft cardstock on a card.

RECIPE-

To begin, I made a card base using 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches of Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4 1/4 inches. (I subsituted Crumb Cake for Kraft cardstock, as SU! doesn’t carry it) Next, I randomly stamped images from the Outdoor Barbecue stamp set with Real Red, Crumb Cake and Memento Tuxedo Black inks onto a 4 x 5 1/4 inch layer of Very Vanilla cardstock. Afterwards, I adhered the layer to the card base with SNAIL adhesive.

Second, I embossed a 5 1/2 x 1 3/4 inches strip of Real Red cardstock with the Absolutely Argyle 3D Embossing Folder. (Spring Mini Catalog). Then, I adhered it to a 5 1/2 x 2 inches strip of Crumb Cake cardstock using SNAIL adhesive. Afterwards, I adhered the layer to the center of the cardbase with SNAIL adhesive.

To make the Birthday Card with Outdoor Barbecue,, I stamped the grill image with Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto Very Vanilla cardstock. Then, I stamped a sentiment above the grill using the same ink. Afterwards, I stamped the flame image over the sentiment using Crumb Cake ink. Next, I colored the Grill image with the Combo Crumb Cake Blends. Moving forward, I cut out the image with the 2 5/8 x 4 inches Stitched Rectangles die. Then, I cut a 3 x 4 1/2 inches layer of Crumb Cake using the same dies. To complete this step, I adhered the stamped image layer to the mat with SNAIL adhesive. Also, I tied Black Twine (from the Country Club Twine Combo Pack) around the base of the mat and adhered it to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Finally, I added three Red Rhinestones around the sentiment.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the grill image with Crumb Cake ink onto a 4 x 5 1/4 inches layer of Very Vanilla cardstock. Afterwards, I stamped a sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black ink overlapping the grill. Finally, I adhered the layer to the card base with SNAIL adhesive.
