Swingin' Birthday

I know, I know.  It's another Create a Critter creation.  As hard as I try I just can't stay away from this cartridge right now.  Besides, this one was created based on one I saw in a past issue of Just Cards. 

My mom's birthday is today and I had to have a special card for her.  And since she's always so crazy and fun I thought using monkeys (who have the same characteristics) would be perfect.

The vine was created using both vine features on CAC with the upper portion being adjusted for a greater "swag" and then a second one welded to it in order to bring the vine across the card.  The monkey's hands are glued directly to the vine but then the bodies are pop-dotted to lift them up for a more "swinging from the vine" feel/look.

On the inside of the card I used Accent Essentials for the sentiment piece.  I was little upset when I drew in the banana's face because as soon as I started drawing the mouth my pen decided to bleed. 

All in all I know mom will love it.
