Warm Wishes from my favorite monkey!

DO NOT FORGET BEFORE YOU LEAVE TO ENTER MY BLOG CANDY  ! !

Yes I have said this time and time again..he's one of my favorite monkeys.Can't help myself. LOL
He's from High Hopes Stamps.I teamed him  up with Authentique's papers.These are sooo not Christmas or snow papers but I think it worked. I just love the blue and brown combo. I promise to use some other colors. 
I also used High Hopes mitten border stamp in the corner.They are so quick to color and easy to cut out.I bought these cute clothespins and just had to hang those mittens. Those cute wood snowflakes were covered in Picket Fence distress stain and the spritz with a blue Smooch Spray.


Ok I got a cute close up of the liquid applique ,...had to show. 

Close up of those mittens....

Make A Wish

Hello hope everyone is having a nice Sunday..mine has been quite lazy actually.Regretting it though,when there's sooo much to do.Anyhoo here's a card I forgot to post awhile back...it was for a friend and my favorite fan ! ! It was her birthday.I admire Teddy Bo images so much,yep I'm a sucker for cute.And these are soooo cute.You'll be seeing more of these in the future. 

Today I used this cute elephant.Now I have to admit I started to color the wings,which I thought were ears.As I was coloring and looked and thought to myself....6 ears what the heck?? LOL So I corrected my confusion...much better ! !Still kinda giggling.
My papers are from Authentique. Some flowers ,ribbon,brads and there you go.
