I think I'll hang on to you!


Tee-hee! ....and except for those stick legs, that little monkey looks just like me! ROUND! Bwah-ha-ha-ha! Yup, this is my DH's Valentine's card! Ain't it a hoot? The BEST part of this card is, that he found this stamp for me on our vacation last year. He knows I LOVEEE cute, so as I was browsing through a craft store, he spotted these stamps and said, "Hey, these look like you!" (In more ways than one! *snort!*) Anyhoo, he was right! I LOVE that little Stampendous monkey and this one was adorable. It was the first time I had seen Stampendous stamps made with cling mount cushion. SOLD!! Now you see why I'm hanging on to him, right? Any man who finds stamps for me, IS NOT GETTING AWAY! Mwah!

Ok, so I stamped both images onto Neenah Classic Crest CS and colored the main image with my Copics. I cut it out with my scalloped Nesties and drew some squiqqle lines around the scallops. I also drew the hearts above my (ah-hem, the monkey's) head! I added some distress ink to all the pieces and then stitched around the edges. To finish I added some Stickles to the hearts and tied this polka dot ribbon in a cute bubbly bow! Okee dokee, that's it for me today! I hope you hens have a MAAH-VELOUS Monday! {{{hen hugs}}}

Supplies:
Stamps - Stampendous; CS - SU Soft Suede & Real Red, Neenah Classic Crest White; Copics; Ribbon - Offray; Nestabilities; Stickles
