I had so much fun making this 8inch square card at the weekend for my daughter's birthday today. She's 23 but loves monkeys so I thought this image and sentiment from a set of Inky Antics stamps would be just the job! He's coloured with Promarkers and glittered. She is also a big fan of orange too. I distressed all the edges and inked them with Wild Honey distress ink. The monkey border and the flower were cut on my Cricut. I made the flower from palm leaves! The bananas are cut freehand. The dp is from Basic Grey.
I'd like to enter this into several challenges just because I really like it!! I'm glad it's staying in the family, you know, I sometimes hate having to part with my cards, they're like children!! lol Are you like me, I stand them on the sideboard before they get sent so that I can see them, lol - (Or am I just dotty - you decide?!!)

You are dotty darlin', but you are soooo not alone. I have even been known to "hide" some cards as I can't bear to send them. Now who's dotty?! Monkeytastic card hun - I can see why you are so pleased with it, and I'm well impressed with the handcut bananas! Hope your baby has had a good birthday. Hugs, Sxx
