Backyard BBQ

April 4, 2007 By Chris Durnan

I guess I am in a bit of a summer party mood. This file is no longer available for free download. It may be purchased Here. Downloading the file is an acceptance of these terms. BBQ is joined together with a Mat. The words backyard are stenciled and will cut with the oval all in one piece.

So I worked on the second alphabet set and will probably offer it’s pieces intermittently with the other files I create. A sample of it is below. If you would like the file right away, I uploaded it to Paperthreads this morning and it can be purchased Here.
Thank you for the great positive feedback! I read them at the beginning of the day and it is great way to start the day. Motivating to create something new. The PW for the BBQ file is summer.
Enjoy!
Chris
So an update on the family, for those interested, My son took a fall yesterday when outside so he looks like a bruiser. Scrape on his cheek, his forehead and his lip. He gets to spend time with Grandma tomorrow and he looks like he was in a fist fight. hoping the swelling will go down by the morning. I bought some kites, kickball and a few other things for his upcoming birthday party. We plan to go to the park and have a picnic. Should be fun! I am looking forward to it. I love to see his little face light up. Well I better get going with new bedroom furniture comes the need for paint on the walls and I am doing it in sections so I can move furniture around in between wall coats. Enjoy your day!

    I hope your son is feeling better soon. Kids always seem to mark their faces right before their birthday, I swear! I have 2 girls who have had their share of scrapes on the nose and black eyes.

    Our little boys keep us on our toes for sure don’t they? And they do handle it all better than us too. Hope he heals quickly…they usually do tho.

    I again want to thank you for sharing your wonderful files with us all….this is the first thing I do in the morning now & as has been already mentioned it makes it like Christmas every day. Have a great day!

    Oh no! So sorry to hear about your son! I hope he heals up at least a little before the party.

    Thank you so much Chris for all your files! It’s like you’re reading my mind with what to make and post. We grill like fiends and the BBQ pping it just simply perfect. Thank you so much! (ps…..this morning I just HAD to go buy the other letters I had missed earlier, can’t wait to try my hand at a book).

    Chris,
    This is one of my favorite files so far! I love it! It would be fun to have the foodies to go with it…sweet tea and hambies as we call them. I live for backyard grillin and chillin in the summer.

    Isn’t having a little boy who likes to run and jump and climb totally a gasp-gasp experience! My little one (2) has scraped every square inch of his knees and some of his shins in the last WEEK!!! On Sunday we had EIGHT — seriously, eight — character bandaids between the two legs. That looked crazier than the scrapes. He’s going to be the one with the first broken bone or major cut…I just know it. I’m trying not to be a helicopter hovering over him….but that’s hard to avoid! I just hope my heart can take it because I have a looooooooooooong way to go yet! Ha.

    Thanks again for the wonderful files. Your files make me excited about scrapbooking!
    shae
