My Cheeky Monkey


Today my baby turns 12 (going on 22! LOL!) and as I quite often tell her she is a cheeky monkey, this card I made at Teneale's class last night is just perfect! It uses the gorgeous little monkey from Fox and Friends, a new set in the Autumn mini catalogue. I did cheat a bit though and used a punch for the balloons instead of stamping them and having to cut them all out!


I also made her a couple of small fun monkey items - a bookmark and a pouch for an Itunes voucher.


And I even found a gift bag with a similar cheeky monkey on it, so how perfect was that? LOL!

We're having a family dinner tonight but one of her birthday gifts is a trip down to Melbourne next weekend to visit her big sister. They are going to do dinner and shopping and a show and generally have some great bonding time together, which I know they'll both enjoy. She gets to fly by herself for the first time and is even coming back Business Class so she is REALLY excited about that (and her dad is very jealous, LOL!).

Part of her present also includes these two items:


Yes, that's right, Green Galore, DD12's favourite SU colour and soon to be retired. Naturally, I am instructed to stock up well and truly before the end of August! And DD18's fav is Ballet Blue, so I'm stocking up on that one too. Have you started stocking up on your favourites that are leaving us? Trust me, you should get in soon and avoid the last minute rush!

Thanks for calling in. Hope you have a great day.

Cheers
Kez

I haven't wanted this set up to now. This little monkey is growing on me. If I find myself buying this set it will be your fault!!
