My friend Tonya stopped by last night and needed a funny bd card for her dad, who happens to be 'The Grill Master' around here. This wonderfully fun stamp was a gift from my dear friend Jenny, and this is the first I have inked it up. (Thanks Jen! LYMI!) I hand wrote 'dad' trying to match the font on the stamp. The inside reads 'Happy Birthday Wild Thing', and is perfect for her dad.
The DP is classic, retired SU from nearly 8 years ago! The gloves were embossed on paper with a dice pattern w/black EP, and paper pieced. The BBQ was colored with Sharpies (CE makes ink run and bleed) and I added ground coffee for charcoal.
Thanks for looking.

Clever as always dear PAT. I love the font, you are good. The embossed gloves, wow, and the ground coffee for charcoal, must smell nice. Never thought I'd see you here at this time.

Oh look! A BBQ Changito! You are one cleaver chick! This card is a hoot, and I know the man who gets this one will have a good chuckle on his special day.
