Recently, my sister broke her arm so I thought I'd make her a card and send her some 'get better soon' goodies. This card came together quickly because of a cute monkey stamp from a Hero Arts clear stamp set. It was super simple to stamp out the image, color it with Copic pens, fussy cut it out and attach it to the card with foam adhesive dots. The printed background is simply a piece of vellum I found in my stash of Hawaiian style papers. It was a little difficult to adhere the vellum to the card without the adhesive showing. I applied very tiny dots of Fabri-Tac glue to the back of the vellum and they are barely visible. I thought that the green ribbon from my scrap pile looked like a vine so the monkey decided to hang out on it. Hahaha! Please note that the monkey also has a broken arm in a cast (made from a tiny roll of paper). I hope my sister will be cheered by this card or at least will smile as she eats the Japanese treats I mail to her!

I do enjoy the depth I can achieve with a few more layers. :)
