JUL18VSNA ~ Friday July 13 @ 5 pm ET ~ Fire up the Grill!
Challenge Title: Fire up the Grill!! Hostess: Kim (aka berlycece) Keyword: JUL18VSNA Date: Friday July 13, 5:00 pm ET
Hey there stampers!! One of the hallmark of summer days both in my childhood and now as an adult is watching the man of the house cooking at the grill. I know, I know...it's 2018, and women can grill too! But the memories of my dad cooking burgers and steaks on his gas grill all year (even in a northern Illinois snowstorm!) makes me smile...and now my hubby enjoys cooking steaks, shish-ka-bobs, pork chops, and veggies for me and friends when we have company during a Staycation. One thing Bruce likes to do is make sure the food looks good with grill lines, perhaps criss-crossed.
My challenge has 2 components; choose one OR both.
1) Make a masculine themed card that is inspired by grilling... colors, images, whatever inspires you!
2) Use SCORE LINES somewhere on your card...anywhere!
Thanks to my fellow hostesses who made fantastic cards to inspire you!

Love that the first challenge is for a masculine card. I chuckled at the part of women vs men grilling. I do the grilling here. My boyfriend doesn't have the patience. 😉
We're in the midst of a Pacific Northwest heat wave. For those of us without ac, outside grilling is the only way to cook. No added heat to my house, thank you very much. Not even a blow drier!

Here is mine. I used scrapbook stickers for the grill and details. Quick card, probably the quickest I have ever made! And now to figure out an inside sentiment and get it in the mail to our son-in-law! JUL18VSNA HB Steve sm by smadson - at Splitcoaststampers

We lived in our home 18 years before installing ac...and it gets very humid here in Pittsburgh! So I cooked dinner daily on our grill, just like you. It truly was the only way to cook without ac.
Kim, thanks so much for the nudge to pull out this die and give it another try! Now that I figured out a different way to use the die I think I will create more apron cards!
