Burger to my Fries

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today. 

Well I finally got all my Christmas decorations taken down and mostly put away where they are stored. I have a few containers to get put away and then it's officially a wrap. This is such a time consuming process and definitely not one of my favorite tasks. But after today it's all finished until next year. 

We also woke up to a couple of inches of snow on the ground and it's still coming down. It looks so pretty outside. The trees are all covered with a blanket of white. This is one of those days where a hearty meal is in order. I think I will make some chili today and hopefully some cornbread. 

But before that happens, I am getting this post finished. I made this card as part of my weekly DT post on the CottageCutz Blog. I am featuring the new Build-a-Burger die and created a card for Valentine's Day.

I used the current MojoMonday sketch for my card layout. 

I started by cutting the hamburger and fries images. For the hamburger I used various colors of cardstock to match the photo on the package. I used the following Stampin'-Up cardstock: hamburger (baked brown sugar), tomatoes (real red), lettuce (garden green), pickles (cucumber crush), cheese (mango melody), onion (confetti white).

For the fries I cut in so saffron cardstock (soft yellow) and then sponged with wild honey distress ink to get more of a golden glow. 

My designer paper is from the Stampin'-Up "from my heart" collection. I selected coordinating colors that match the cardstock for the card base and the center rectangle panel. 

The sentiment is from a Taylored Expressions set "we go together." I masked and stamped the sentiment on both of the rectangle panels. I used a stamp-a-ma-jig for placement. 

Now, I am ready to start card assembly. I attached the designer paper, embossed layer and oval to the card base with double sided tape.

The white rectangle panels are attached with double sided tape. For the images, I used dimensional adhesive. To finish off the card I scattered a few red hart sequins. They look darker in the photo but they are red. 

I added a Valentine sentiment on the card inside. I used an older die from CottageCutz - Valentine Phrase & More.  And that completes my card for this post. So until next time........God bless.
