Birthday Monkey Business!



I lost track of time & last night realized I hadn't yet made a card for Andrea's Monkey Business challenge - and the linky closes in 11 hours. I almost had time to spare, not sure what I was hurrying for...anyway...

Supplies: Bugaboo monkey & cake digi; Bic Markers; Liquid Applique; Sakura Stardust gel pen; Cuttlebug birthday embossing folder; classic small circle Nesties


It's been ages since I've used Liquid Applique, and it was just as fun as it always is :)

I just joined the 21st century & got a cell phone - I am SO EXCITED to sit here like a dork texting away :) For all that I am good with fiddly bits of paper, I am not so good at typing on a tiny touch screen. I think I will quickly become a lot more tolerant of such abominations as 'u' instead of 'you.' And who decided that commas and apostrophes are less common than periods? Sigh. I'll get there.

xoxo,
Jessi

    DD, who is 9, uses her thumbs so fast it's mind-blowing! I think it's a generational thing. Have fun with it!
