I just had to CASE a card today with Sleepyinseattle being the Featured Stamper. Joanne and I are both on the Tuesday Doubledog Dare challenge team. Not only that - but she also just happens to have a super gallery too!!
I chose to case Joanne's fun just for you Chef card because I missed making this stand up fold card when it was a Try a New Technique challenge and I just love Chef! I changed what was on the platter, I used a pinked circle for framing, used a different DP, ribbon and sentiment and added a brad!
And the Chef is 'out of the bag' here- as I made this card for another fellow DoubleDog member - Itsapassion (Anne) who is having a very special b'day this week. I know she'll be seeing this in the gallery - but she'll also be getting a surprise that is not shown here - so Happy B'day GF!! and I hope you had fun in NYC!!!
ETA!!! I just realized I left the E off of Anne! I've corrected it on the card! SORRY Anne!!! that's what comes from rushing to get a card done and loaded!!
Congratulations Joanne on being the FS today - I'm sure you had a super day seeing all your cards cased in the gallery!!!

Oh Mr. Chef is looking AWESOME in his PTI Bitty Checkwear! And sassy in a shade of Berry Sorbet, I might add! LOVE that fold...you rock at all things 3-dimensional and template-ensional, hee!

Julia, this is so fabulous and fun for our sweet Anne. She looks more like she is just hitting the big 3-0 to me though. If that even. She is such a cutie!
Love this chef, he always makes me smile and I love the festive paper and colors you used on him.
Thanks so much for playing today and for being such a great friend!
Hugs,
Joanne
