I love the summer/BBQ theme and was glad I had a WTG guy to go along with the rest of the family b/c it worked out perfectly. This is for a colleague and friend who - along with her husband and kids - LOVES to BBQ. Since we live in California, we're lucky enough to have grilling weather almost all year and they've got a nice big ole grill. So the inside will read "The Family that grills together chill together" as soon as I print it out.
I used the same template with both cardstocks and then trimmed the white cardstock to be a little smaller. I had three sections - the long apron top (inside), the outside rectangle and the matching inside rectangle. The green matting goes with ribbon colors.
I used Prismacolors for everything BUT the grill. For that, I used Koh-i-noor pencils (black, brown, red and orange), layered them on the grill and then blended with a blending marker to create the coal effect. The steaks and hot dogs were stamped, cut and adhered on. I cut a slit on the top of the grill to tuck the ribbon behind.
