My dh used to be a chef so I just HAD TO use the houndstooth as the background. Chef's pants often have this type of fabric so to me it was a given. The chef was stamped into the rectangular frame using a revers mask and colored in with the magic colored pencil technique. I made a dotted border for the central image by hand.

I have all these! I can't wait to try and duplicate this but somehow I think it'll be hard to get it to come out as great as your's did. Absolutely terrific job.
