Checkered Birthday Chef

I wasn't planning on making a card today as I have a Stamp Camp I needed to be getting ready for tonight BUT dh tells me this morning that he needs a birthday card for his BOSS/friend like today!! So I grabbed the SU catalog and turned to Violia as I liked that card. Of course I had to change it some so that it would fit within the Limited Supply challenge which was to use a circle AND a rectangle on your card.

I used retired SU design paper for my rectangle and also for the chef's jacket that I paper pieced. His hat and neck tie are paper pieced with Kiwi Kiss cardstock. I layered the rectangle on chocolate chip and so saffron. Using my coluzzle, I cut a circle ring out of So Saffron. The chef was stamped on white and also cut into a circle stopping at the hand and hat. As I cut around them to make them coming "out" of the circle. The birthday cake was stamped on another piece of cardstock and adhered with a glue dot. I colored it with markers.

We were allowed ribbon ONLY as an embellishment for the limited supply. So I used Kiwi Kiss striped ribbon. I thought it turned out pretty cute for as fast as I had to come up with it.

stamp: violia; paper: retired SU dp, kiwi kiss, so saffron, chocolate chip, white; ink: black stazon; accs: ribbon, makers, coluzzle

I did add stickles to the candle AFTER I had taken a picture for the Limited Supply Challenge but of course didn't get a picture of it with the stickles on it as dh had to run out the door.
