Monkey Business Card with Tina H

Hello crafters, it’s Tina and I really went a bit overboard with this card! Since I am featuring some adorable cuties from the Monkey Business stamps and dies set , I went all out creating a vibrant jungle scene! 

Starting with a green card base, I then cut a white panel with the outer die from Frilly Frames Stripes. Next, I create a frame with one of the Stitched Semi Circle dies. This provides the opening for my scene.

For my leafy jungle, I first cut a panel from a green sheet of paper (Dots & Stripes Pastels) with the border die from the Botanical Backdrop. I adhered parts of this border to the back of my white panel so it would look like the leaves were growing inside of the frame. From that same green sheet I also cut 6 more individual leaves to spread around my design (Summer Greenery). I wanted the background to be completely green, so I added another green striped panel to the back of the white piece. Now I could adhere this whole jungle scene to the card base with liquid glue.

The main characters of this card are the cuties from Monkey Business, it was hard to select only three of them! Of course they needed some yummy bananas as well! To add to the jungle vibe, I also stamped a sweet parrot (Outback Critters).

All the coloring was done with Copic markers and I added some highlights with a white gel pen. I found the perfect sentiment in the Inside Greetings Congrats set and used a red ink from my stash. To assemble the card, I first added the individual leaves and bananas to the scene, followed by the cute critters and sentiment. Lastly, I added a bunch of yellow jewels (Pastel Jewels Mix). I am so excited to see all your takes on this sweet set!

Thank you for joining me and happy crafting!
