Monkey Business

Monkeys make everything more fun, don’t you think?  This is a card that I made for my niece for her Birthday. She had quite the surprise when she opened it. 🙂

…….So this is a twist panel card, I got the instructions from YouTube, there are a lot of videos for this style of card and I watched quite a few so sorry, I don’t remember exactly which one I used to follow the directions.

All the cardstock, Designer paper and stamps and the small flower punch I used are from Stampin Up. and the cute little monkey is “Jinx the Monkey” from Karen Burnistons Character dies collection. The Monkey on the bottom left is the original shape of the die, but he is easy to trim up and reconfigure into the different poses.

I am not an alcohol marker master but I try, the greeting on the front and the cake on the inside were coloured with the Chameleon Brand of alcohol markers.
