Now I have to have this little gem in the post today for my nephew, found out he's favourite place to visit is Monkey World bless him he's only 31!!!! Back to the card I thought I'll have a go at the Papertake weekly challenge which was to use squares, I used a square punch with scraps of daisy bucket papers then I handstitched a frame which is the challenge for the little extra on DCM to handstitch on your card. Knotted thread in the corners to tie in with the stitching and my brand new whipper snapper monkey and 3d him using silcone glue. The words are from Hero Art clear stamps set which has loads of birthday words. So now I have to put in an insert and make sure I write inside to let him know its from me.
