Wednesday Inspiration

Hello, It is hump day today. That means it is time for another Wednesday Inspiration over at the Cuttlebug Challenge Blog. Today is the last day of our month long birthday celebration. To bring things to a close we all created birthday Thank you cards in our theme. My theme has been monkey business. So perfect for so many in my family...

For my Thank you card I stamped a pocket (unity) and cut it out. Then I stamped the little peeking monkey and colored it in with prismacolor pencils. Cut out the colored monkey and attached him to the pocket. I bumped the little hands up with some foam dots, for added dimension. The white cardstock I embossed with the Cuttlebug thank you embossing folder. Then I inked the edges with distress ink in tea dye.

Overall this card was fun and easy to do. Make sure you hop on over to the Cuttlebug challenge blog to see the rest of the design teams creations. I hope you can join in the fun!

Thanks for stopping by today! Jenn K

Wednesday Inspiration # 50

Wow! It is another Wonderful Wednesday Inspiration! Today I bring you an idea for a centerpiece for your birthday bash. Of course I am continuing the Monkey business....

I covered a container that once held some flowers with cardstock I embossed with the Herringbone Cuttlebug embossing folder. I stamped some leaves onto green cardstock and cut them out for the border around the bottom edge. For the "Trees" I used green pipe cleaners and more green stamped leaves. I used a hanging monkey I colored with Prismacolor pencils for between the trees. The Happy Birthday banner is attached to a wooden skewer cut down to size. I attached a few leaves and some ribbon embellishments. To get the trees to stay in place I stuffed packing peanuts and tissue paper in between the sticks.

I had fun creating this little centerpiece. I love it especially when I can re-purpose an old container. So great to recycle.

I hope you hop on over to the Cuttlebug Challenge Blog to take a peek at the rest of the design teams creations...they are so awesome!! Next week we will be bringing our Birthday bash to a close with Thank You Cards...

Thank you for dropping by today, drop me a note and let me know what you think of my project. I love hearing from you.

Till next time, Jenn K
