For those of you that don't know, I have a major weakness for monkeys! Any time I come across a cute t-shirt with a monkey on it, or a little stuffed monkey doll, I HAVE to buy them for my kids... cute monkey stamps? No exception! So of course, I HAD to have this cute Monkey Zoo stamp from CC Designs! Not only is the image adorable, but I LOVE the sentiment that comes with it!

 

 

Cute, right?! So I whipped up this quick birthday card for my nephew...

  

  

Monkey - E37, E35, E33

Face, Ears - E21, E00, E000

Cheeks - R30

Ribbon - YR18, YR15, YR12

Shading - E42, E41, 0

 

I stamped only the first line of the sentiment on the outside of the card, and the rest is stamped on the inside (sorry - I forgot to take a picture of that!). All cardstock edges are inked with Versamagic Jumbo Java ink, except for the main image oval, which is inked with Versamagic Wheat. The gift box and hat are paper pieced with papers from the My Mind's Eye Out of the Blue 6x6 Pad. I did a little shading with my copics on the paper pieced areas, just so it wouldn't look so flat.

  

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:

  

That's all for today! Thanks so much for stopping by! I would love to know what you think!
