Last week of Summer of Colour – time flies when you are
having fun! So here is my last Boys of Summer installment.
Hank and Gordon have had a bromance since grade school. They’ve
known each other since they’re moms met in the local SuperSave oh so many years
ago…
Over the years they’ve become renown in the neighborhood for
their BBQ’s . “We make the best pork ribs in town” Hank boasts. Their wives
Angie and Dolly can’t agree more (and are grateful for the summer reprieve from
having to do all the cooking).
But it has not always been this way – we don’t talk about
the kerosene incident a few years back when Gordon committed a serious lack of judgment
(“It was all I could find in the garage” he says with a sheepish grin).
Yes the colors are raspberry, tangerine and lemon (pic does
not quite show it) – another gesso textured background. The graphics/text
actually are a raspberry colour – found in a Betty Crocker Outdoor Cook Book. Snuck
some washi tape in as well… Wow six weeks went incredibly fast! I enjoyed all
the color matches Kristin gave us and cannot wait till next year! Enjoy. Jewels
xo!
ReplyDeleteI will miss the wonderful back stories that go with your fabulous 'Boys of Summer' cards!
ReplyDeleteSilly old Gordon (I wonder if the 'kerosene incident' was responsible for blowing off his hair?!).
I have loved looking at all of your cards for this year's SOC - looking forward to SOC5! Kids of Summer?!!
