Heffy Doodle New Release Blog Hop

Hi Heffydoodlers!! Welcome to my blog and the second Hop for the new release! Hope you have been enjoying the release and you have been sharing and tagging your creations! I have this cute monkey card for you today! Pop on over to my insta to see a little video of him in action! Don't forget to check out the rest of the team & their projects - full list at the end of this post.

 https://heffydoodle.com/shop/
I started this card by creating the background. I brushed Lucky Clover and Twisted Citron onto a piece of white card through the UnbeLEAFable stencil. I then used the Fancy Nancy Frames Die to create an appeture. I coloured some card with the same inks and cut out some of the Amazonian Leaves using the Die and adhered them behind the appeture. I stamped and coloured the monkey with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and die cut him. I created some clouds on the base card (just behind the appeture) using the Cloudy Skys Stencil

I used a simple 'swing' mechanism to create the movement of the monkey. There is a video on my channel showing this mechanism (I've just flipped the mechanism up the other way in this card). I attached the monkey to this mechanism, and adhered the front piece with leaves over the top with 3D foam. I created a leaf pull piece and attached to the end of the pull-tab.

Hope you enjoyed the card! Here's the hop details and prizes that can be won!
