Loved this cool site. I noticed a couple of things with the ol' Sock Monkey but I hesitate to pull him out. I have become aware that there is an "I hate the Sock Monkey" contingency out there. I tell ya' I NEVER got comments when I used the Sock Monkey, so I put him away in a safe place. But today I got brave and decided to try again. After all, the IC ladies are the biggest commenters around, so here goes. I used the bib as my inspiration, so I actually used the monkey image to create a background tonight.
I went back with a brush and did some monochromatic watercoloring on my barrel of monkeys. I actually liked the effect. I didn't stamp on white, but used yellow. I pulled out my new dual colored ribbon for just the right touch as it's yellow and red- cool. I went for a bold sentiment that looks fun, with a little red scallop below.
We have the cutest little red-headed nephew that's having his first birthday in October, so this may be just the card for the little guy! Thanks for viewing and commenting. Please don't hurt the monkey's feelings, ladies.
