A Cheeseburger with Ketchup


Here I go again--another food card! I do believe that I may be obsessed! Julia's Ways To Use It challenge this week over at SCS was to use scissors in a a creative way, so I centered this one on cutting rather than stamping. Basically, everything is cut out on the cheeseburger card. I drew each piece so they can be put together separately--like build-a-burger! For those vegetarians out there this is a soy burger, of course! Feel free to copy my pattern, if you are so inclined. The ketchup bottle was created using the pattern provided at Mirkwood Designs. Thanks for the great pattern, Ruth Ann! A couple of notes if you try this:

  1. I couldn't come up with anything spectacular to simulate a sesame seed bun top (other than real sesame seeds!) and I am not satisfied with mine. I'm sure many of you can think of something so let me know if you do.
  2. Use a hole punch to make Swiss cheese! fun!

Thanks so much for visiting my blog today! So, how you want your burger?! LOL!

So adorable! One of my decorative border punches (small ones) has tiny tear drop shapes that work perfectly for sesame seeds.

Great card and templates...you are so creative. I look forward to coming by and seeing your amazing projects! Since I was a vegan for 12 years, I just can't seem to shake my veggie-grain patties, with guacamole, cheese and on the side chips instead of fries! Yeah, can you tell I live in CA - LOL!

How funny about making foody cards...I'm the same way, especially with the ice-cream, cakes, cupcakes, etc. Guess it's better to make them in your craft room than in the kitchen and save all those calories!

And another cute-beyond-words pattern (You ARE submitting these to all the mags, right?)! Just got back from Michael's, JoAnn's and Barnes & Noble, but didn't see your best-selling pattern book, so let's get going on that, huh?!
