Waffle Flower Monkeys

Hello there, hope your having relaxing Sunday wherever you are the world, I've spent this weekend cutting out with Ciaran the cameo (my nickname for my Silhouette cameo machine) I know to some it may sound a bit sad, but I have always called my machine Ciaran, since I purchased him. I just couldn't be without him either. 

Plus I had to use my brand NEW waffle flower photopolymer stamps that I recently purchased and thought it would be perfect for this card I've made especially for little boy who's birthday is not that long off. 

First I folded piece of card measuring 27.3cm x 10cm in half at the top, next took a strip of the PC monkey washi tape and applied this to the left hand side. Using the Silhouette Cameo I created rectangle and type the name Jenson using Arial font (bold) and place just slightly higher than the bottom of the rectangle, opened Craft Artist software and type in Happy 4th Birthday using Mister Sirloin BTN rare bold font in purple colour. Exported this as PNG and open this in SC software and place it just above the name Jenson.

Now using the print and cut system I cut it out , placed a small piece of lime green card on the card blank just to the bottom right of the card. Adhere EVA foam with double sided tape to the back of matt I have already cut out on the SC. Now adhere the back of that same foam with double sided tape and adhere it to the card blank. Adhering the leftovers of the e and the o with Zig fine glue pen.

Stamped WF willy and friends monkey stamp with memento tuxedo black ink and acrylic block, on to piece of Neenah solar white card then coloured the little monkey in with Spectrum noir pens then cut him out with no white edge and adhere him pinflair glue gel. Finally added some clear droplets that I made using dried Anita's gloss glue and adhere to the card using Zig glue pen.
