August Challenge #2 Reminder - DT Feature

Good Morning!

I hope you are all having a wonderful week so far.

We are in our second week of school.

It feels like Fall is coming.

While I am NOT ready for summer to be over, I just LOVE Fall!

Enough babbling, I am here to remind you about our

COFFEE and MONKEYS! Oh My!!!

Good Morning.

I have a card and little something extra to share with you today!

I don't know where I have found all of this time to create this week, 

but I did, and I am thankful because we all know how life gets and

how it could be a month before I post again. :/ But hopefully not.

I have enjoyed creating and have LOTS of images colored in and waiting to

be placed on their new card front 'home'. Until then, they are unhappy and homeless, 

and that just isn't good. That will have to change! :D

I used my Fresh Brewed Digital Stamp:

Girl on the Go

For this card I used all scrap papers (I am making that my mission -

to use more of my HUGE scraps in my HUGE scrap box :D

I colored the image using prismacolor and copic markers. 

The edge of the image was embossed using shabby green frantage.

Now for more fun!

My mother in law asked me to create a project for her.

She needed four little monkeys to hang on a tree for her 

church to use at Vacation Bible School this year. I admit, I was a little

intimidated. I am afraid of drawing monkeys for some reason. I was afraid

they wouldn't look like monkeys. 

I got over my fear and intimidation, sketched them out on notebook paper, 

was pretty satisfied, and then began the project. I have to finish them today 

(cut them out, laminate them and so on) 

I hope the church and the kids love them and that they make the kids smile.

(here they are cut out and ready to go.)

LEAVE A COMMENT BELOW AND LET US KNOW IF YOU WANT TO SEE THESE LITTLE GUYS

IN THE SHOP AS DIGIS! :)

Have a very happy and blessed day!
