Happy New Year and welcome to the first Papercraft Star challenge of 2011! This week's challenge is to use one of our New Year's Resolutions and incorporate it into a project - what?! As I was thinking about what I was going to make, I found this great digi stamp from Pink Cat Studio (Pink Cat will be sponsoring my challenges for the month of January and there are some cute stamps out there!!) My husband and I have promised to have more fun in 2011 and what could represent fun more than this cute little monkey? I printed out the digi stamp and colored it with my Copics. Found a sheet of Core'dinations while cleaning out the craft room, embossed and sanded it, and used a blush base for the card. It took me a while to cut out the little monkey but love the way it came out.
I can't wait to see what you come up with for this challenge! Thank you for joining us at Papercraft Star!
Supplies: Digi Stamp (Pink Cat Studio), Copic Markers, Card Stock - Blush Blossom (SU!), Chocolate Box (Cor'dinations), Embossing Folder (Cuttlebug), Sanding Block (Making Memories), Foam Squares, Ribbon (Michael's)
The monkey is so cute! Great resolution for the new year.
ReplyDeleteHi Jen,

Hugs, Wendy

What a cute card Jen! I love how it turned out once you put all the pieces together. I agree--monkeys definitely represent fun. :-) Hope you and your hubby can find lots of fun things to do together this year. Great card!
ReplyDeleteThis is REALLY cute, and I am thinking of my grandson - this is his favorite folder when he "makes" cards, and monkeys his favorite animals (or aminals as he says...) Smart to use that folder with the Coredinations paper - it looks like real candies !!
ReplyDeleteToo fun! This card totally makes me smile. You did a great job, Jen!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this fun card! Great job on the challenge and wonderful use of our sponsor's stamp too!
