The Cheeseburger Card

Here in Idaho, we are just hitting some high temperatures that everybody is happy about. After over 200 days of temperatures below 70 degrees, we are finally creeping up there. 72. . . 74. . . ohboy! That means that our (albeit short) summer is getting here. . . and I can’t wait! I love outdoorsy things like camping, bbq and just enjoying the sun! It’s also fun to make summer cards for birthdays, Father’s Day and summer get-togethers like barbecues and holiday parties! I actually made this card last year for a party we had for work.

Kate, over at the Stars & Stamps forum was looking for a little tutorial help, so I thought that this would be a fun summery card to share. I made up a little video so that you can see the fine details. Here is a close-up too, of those paper pieces. Doesn’t this card make you hungry?

And here is the video:

The Cheeseburger Card!

 

A fun thing happened since the other gals started making their cheeseburger cards over at S&S. . . I think that sharing ideas with others is one of my favorite things because it’s what other people bring to the table that inspires me even more. You can see the tutorial, and other people’s cheeseburgers here. . .

Among the ideas shared came a lot of great ones like patterned picnic paper with ants on it. .. so cute! Way to go Velda! She also used a punch for the cheese called “drippy goo!” I love it! Kate made hers with orange paper for cheese . . .no two cheeseburgers are turning out exactly alike and I love that. I can’t wait to see what other people can do with this.

Big thanks to all of you guys for playing along with me! I just checked in on my YouTube Channel and noticed that I currently have 126,700 views of my tutorial videos, and that is amazing. As long as you guys are enjoying them, I will keep cranking them out. Do we have any requests? :)

Thanks for stopping by!!!
