Last Week’s Card & Cuppa for Children – More Little Monkeys

August 15, 2023August 9, 2023 ~ Karen Young

Yesterday I shared last week’s Card & Cuppa project made using the Little Monkey Bundle.

While I was making that project, I also made a similar project for my Card & Cuppa for Children classes using the same bundle.

Lots of leaves from the Little Monkey Stamp Set, stamped in Shaded Spruce and then coloured using Watercolor Pencils and a Blender Pen created the fun background.

Next, the monkeys were stamped in Early Espresso onto Pecan Pie cardstock. There were also monkey faces in Crumb Cake and bananas stamped onto Daffodil Delight.

All of these pieces were cut out using the Little Monkey Builder Punch.

Each monkey then had their face and a banana attached.

A sentiment from the Circle Sayings Stamp Set was stamped and then cut out using the 2″ Circle Punch – an Online Exclusive Item.

All of the pieces were then stuck to the project using Dimensionals.

I love how cute this project has turned out. Perfect for any little monkeys in your life!

Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Little Monkey Bundle

August 14, 2023August 9, 2023 ~ Karen Young

For last week’s Card & Cuppa project it was time to use the Little Monkey Bundle.

This is a new discounted Stamp Set & Punch Bundle from the Annual Catalogue.

Everything is stamped onto Basic White cardstock and coloured using Stampin’ Blends.

The background leaves and sentiment are in Shaded Spruce, with the monkeys and bananas stamped in Early Espresso.

Each monkey is coloured using the Light Lemon Lolly Stampin’ Blend as a first layer, followed by Dark and Light Pecan Pie Blends for the body to give some shading. Pretty Pink in both Dark and Light adds the colour to the face and ears.

The bananas are coloued using Daffodil Delight.

Once these were coloured, they were cut out using the Little Monkey Builder Punch.

For the colouring of the leaves, a combination of different Stampin’ Blends are used, Old Olive, Parakeet Party, Granny Apple Green and Lemon Lime Twist. Plus of course the Color Lifter came in handy too for those oops moments!

The sentiment is from the Circle Sayings Stamp Set and cut out using the 2″ Circle Punch from the Online Exclusives.

To finish, all of the pieces were attached using Dimensionals to create the fun scene.
