Your Top Banana With Me!

Here is my card made with "Monkey Mike".....just one of High Hopes Fabulous New Stamps.

I also used the "Your Top Banana With Me!" ..... "Single Banana" and "Banana Tree". All are from High Hopes recent New Release of stamps.

Here's the recipe.....

I used Prismacolor pencils (OMS) and H20's to deepen the shading on the Monkey and Banana.

I stamped the banana tree on a light yellowish paper with Old Olive.

I cut around the Monkey's hand with an exacto knife to hold the banana.

The basic grey paper is a Xmas paper ....but I think it worked well here.

The Cute Monkey and sentiment are on foam pop-ups.
