I got this super cute stamp set by Stampendous called Changito Dos. I don't think it is a new stap set, but it's new to me :) It has a couple of monkeys and some vines, and these cute "monkey" sayings. I really fell in love with the "I'm bananas about you!" saying and wanted to use it to make a card. I thought it would be cute as a Valentines card or just to tell someone that you care.
I started by cutting two bananas using my cricut Create A Critter cartridge and used chalk to give them some shading. I also cut the shadow out in brown so that it would pop off the green pattern paper I wanted to use for the background. Next I stamped the saying on a cream color paper and used a circle punch to cut it into a circle. Then I just put it all together. I used some foam tape to pop up one of the bananas to add a little 3D effect :) Materials Used: Paper: Mostely scraps from my stash, Recollections cardstock Cricut: Create A Critter Stamp: Stampendous Changito Dos Ink: Stampin Up - Chocolate Chip Challenges Entered: The Cricut Chirp - Sweet Valentine Paper Playtime - Use Brown Pause Dream Enjoy - Desserts Cut It Up - In with the new Like what you see, visit my Etsy Store
