Beate's Weekend Sketch Challenge #41

I just love this little monkey from C.C. Designs, if you would like to indulge a little they can be purchased at All That Scraps.

I am thinking about investing in nestabilities, what are your girls thoughts, are they worth it. I wish they would come out with die for the Cuttlebug! I will keep thinking about it, as they are very pricey and if you know me, I would need all the sizes!!! I will be heading down to the States in the summer for a week, I was thinking about getting them down there. I was looking on-line and I saw that you can get them at Jo-Anne's and they except Michael's coupons. But knowing my luck, they would be all sold out. What to do, be impatience and impulse buy or wait and take the chance?

Gift card holders!!!! These are Fantastic!!!

I found this wonderful Tutorial on one of the blogs that I visit, Paper Pleasing Ideas. I did a little modification on this one because my Father wanted me to make one that had 2 holders instead of one. It looks like one whole piece but it is not. I did the scoring and the had to add in the front and back pieces. I will be making more of these for Christmas and birthday's this year. They are just the right size to keep the whole card in a wallet or purse.

This is another one that I did when I first found the Tutorial. I thought the DP would be perfect for a shopping gift card.

When I saw this challenge I know I had to use my new set from C.C. designs Rubber Stamps. To indulge yourself please visit All That Scraps. I think all the sets are super cute. My favorite animals are Dogs, penguins and Monkeys. I have always been fascinated with them. When I saw this set, I HAD TO HAVE IT!!!.


I started with the DP and then matched the other colors to it. I seem to do that most of the time. On the piece of Wild Wasabi, I scored it at 1/4' increments to mimic the veins on a banana leaf.
