Feel Better Grill Master

Happy Friday!
I hope your week has gone well. After being gone last week, I'm playing catchup like you wouldn't believe. You think you have it all under control but I can testify, that's only an illusion...or delusion, lol. For my card today, I remade a card I made quite a while back. I needed a get well/feel better card for one of my brothers-in-law. Poor guy had a really nasty fall and ended up with fractured vertebrae in his neck, a banged up knee and a face that looks like he was in a prize fight! Ouch! This particular brother of my hubs is a well know grill master. So hubs say, can you make a card w/ a barbeque theme? Really? I've totally got that covered! Since I really liked the layout of my previous card I used most of it again. I left off the Happy Birthday part and made a tablecloth plaid layer using the woven plaid stamp. For the inside, I used the leftover frame (after die cutting it for the front) and added a feel better greeting and a die cut bbq grill.
The finished card is 4.25 x 5.50 and these are the (ridiculous number) of Copics I used.
Supplies:
stamps: Grilling Guy, Boss of the BBQ Birthday, Woven Plaid, Cheerful Smiles
paper: white, black
ink: Memento tuxedo black, love letter, rhubarb stalk
accessories: Copic markers, Spellbinders A2 matting basics B dies, Lil Inkers stitched rectangles dies, Memory Box party grill die

Fabulous card Julie. I really like how you did the sentiment!
I remember this card! I like it just as much this time around too!
Your plaid is perfect - and I love how you used the "leftovers"! I'm sure your BIL will appreciate your hard work!
Nice one, Julie! Excellent coloring and layout. Hope your BIL is on the mend soon!
OMGosh Julie!! This is so darling...for the DH!! I love your BBQ guy and the inside is so cute as well! Love it!! I think I "need" these stamps!! LOL! Is there a stamp we don't think we "need"!?
This is a great card and I love the way you carried the plaid frame to the inside! The clean design of this card is super for a guy too!
Great card it will have him feel better in on time. I love the the way you used the greeting around the edge.
Great layout! Love how you used that cook on a get well card! Awesome job on the plaid!
