My card today features Moka Bobby (as in Bobby Flay), illustrated by Nancy McKinney for the Whimsical Wishes collection at Taylored Expressions.

When I saw Moka Bobby, I knew I had to have him.  He’s so cute!  And we’re big “grillers” here, rain, shine, snow… it doesn’t matter.  🙂

After stamping and coloring Bobby with Copics, I die-cut the circles using Spellbinders Nestabilities (Large Classic Circles), added some stitching and “flagged” my sentiment.  I thought about paper-piecing Bobby’s apron but decided to complete the sentiment there instead.  Afterall, you can grill “any time.”  🙂

I used Train Track Border to create a “fence” along the bottom and papers are once again from this month’s Project Pantry Kit.

Be sure to check out what the Baker’s Dozen have created today!
