Card Chain Challenge for April

I created a mini slimline card for this challenge and used the option of HATS.  Chefs have hats and I just love this cute set anyway, so the chefs have it.  I knew I wanted my two chefs to shine (of course, with their hats) and I also wanted all the little items you might cook with too, but I needed a table.  When I chose my sentiment, I thought it could serves as a table and I think it really does.  My background is a bit off-kilter because I attached the card onto the back of the patterned paper. 
MY BAD.
However, I had the background down so it may be wonky, but I still think it works.  My poor recipient will have to grin and bear it.  I chose the red hearts because I think it needed some more color. I also used Glossy Accents on the chef's buttons.


These are the Challenge Selections for the April Card Chain Challenge.

Fun and happy card Arlene. Unless you mentioned it I wouldn't have notice the "wonky" background. The whole card is superb.
