CCdesign, Proverbial monkeys in a barrel


This will be a fast post today, but tomorrow I hope to come back with a small tutorial on how I free handed the barrel, and other tips on free handing images. It's midnight, and my last lady for stampers Club just left. We had a great time, and it was wonderful to have adults to talk too. For this card I was feeling a little silly. I used to love those monkey in a barrel games that they had as kids ( the ones with the red plastic monkeys that you hook together), and I wanted to recreate that with these adorable new monkey's from CCdesign. The only stamp used here is CCdesign monkey. The BG is faux wood technique, The barrel was free handed, the colors are Chocolate Chip, very Vanilla, and Close to Cocoa. Monkeys are colored with Copic Markers. Window is Nestabilities and sponging. A little doodling on the frame was done.
I'm so tired now that I am going to sleep.
Hugs
Sophie
