Stampin' Up! He's the Man Birthday Card

 

Welcome to another Inkin’ Krew monthly blog hop! Our very talented team is doing a blog hop featuring Stampin’ Up! products. This month we are all creating projects with a “Celebrate Summer" theme. Here is what I created for it...

What man/woman doesn't love to grill in the summer? In Florida, I grill year 'round but we did that in the north country too. Just had to brush the snow away!

My card base is Cajun Craze cardstock, with panels of He's the Man Specialty Designer Series Paper. 

I used the retired What's Cookin' Stamp Set for the sentiment. I think I need to reink my Early Espresso pad!  

For the knife handle, salt and pepper shakers, and veggies, I used Crumb Cake ink, scraps of Very Vanilla cardstock and stamps from What's Cookin'. I colored the veggies with Stampin' Blends...Old Olive, Crumb Cake and Poppy Parade.  

I used the retired Cookin' Dies for the cutting board (scrap Very Vanilla), knife (the blade is Silver Foil) and salt & pepper shakers. 

The grill is a punch out from the He's the Man Designer Series pack. 

The grill and knife are adhered with Stampin' Dimensionals. Everything else is adhered with liquid glue.

For the inside, the sentiment is computer generated. The flames and saying is a punch out from the He's the Man Specialty DSP.  The panel measures 4" x 5 1/4".
