Stampin' Up! Sock Monkey Birthday Card


I made this card for my youngest son's birthday.  Ok he is not kid age, but 24 years old on Tuesday.  LOL  I printed the poem about "you look like a monkey and smell like one too" on the inside.  LOL  He will get a laugh.  I put his name on the balloons with a Stampin' Up! Black marker. 

I used markers on Stampin' Up!'s watercolor paper and used the aqua painter to color in the monkey and balloons.  I used Dusty Durango, Old Olive and Night of Navy colors for a challenge on Stampin' Connection, a Stampin' Up! demonstrator only website.  I made the birthday card for a challenge on a wonderful group of stampers called LNStampers. I also used Technostampers sketch challenge for this card.  How great it feels to make three challenges in one card!  Hope you enjoy it!
Have a wonderful day!
