Today's TLC Challenge has us going every which way with one of our main images. Actually, 2 of my main images are going different directions..the greeting was split into these 4 parts & stamped around the sides. The woven plaid stripe image was stamped in 2 directions.
I needed a get well/feel better card for one of my brothers-in-law. Poor guy had a really nasty fall & ended up with fractured vertebrae in his neck, a banged up knee & a face that looks like he was in a prize fight! Ouch! This particular brother of my hubs is a well known grill master. So hubs says, can you make a card w/ a barbeque theme? Really? I've totally got that covered! I left off the Happy Birthday part of the greeting & made a tablecloth plaid layer using the woven plaid stamp.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups, the inside & Copic colors are on my blog: The Write Stuff

What a perfect card for your BIL!!! I LOVE the expression on that barbeque master's face, and your shading is fantastic (something I cannot do well, so I am always looking to learn--thank you ). This card, to me, hits just the right tone of a great masculine card and one that I am sure your BIL will appreciate, and it will give him a chuckle, which is just what he needs right now. Hoping he will recover quickly and completely. I love this card!!! Masculine cards are so tough to hit just the right tone, and this one is a home run--fantastic!!!

WOW! I guess he did have a big accident! This image is really fun, and perfect for the Grill King!
