We were invited to a barbecue on Saturday and this is the Joy Fold card I made to thank the hosts.
The image is from Digi Stamp Boutique, 'BBQ Stan' and coloured with Promarkers. The hexagons are all Memory Box 'Stitched Hexagon Layers' die cuts. The patterned papers are from Anna Marie Designs. The card is kept closed with a brad.
This photograph shows the card open, revealing a pair of barbecue tongs made with a die from the Sue Wilson 'King of the Grill' set.
