SC279 Father's Day King of the Grill Fun







I am so thrilled to have been able to use the King of Grill stamp set from Stampin' Up's new Summer mini catalog in today's splitcoaststamper's sketch challenge. I just think this set is the cutest, and obviously perfect for Father's Day. I also love both the spot lighting technique, and the argyle DSP used in the background. I hope you enjoy!

The card features colors in black, white, and silver. The primary image was stamped on whisper white cardstock, and then spritzed with my silver smooch spray. Little pearls were adhered to the flowers. Some additional stylized silver hardware adds a special touch!
