Materials used:
Anita's monkey hugs stamp
Penny Black A hug is . . . stamp
Stamps Away Patchwork Template
Distress inks: antique linen and iced spruce
Spectrum Noir pens and pencils
Whispers brown pen
Memento Rich Cocoa ink pad
Method:
Using the template and distress inks I stencilled in a background on the front of an A5 white card blank. With the memento ink I stamped the A hug is . . . on top of the stencilled panel. I used the brown pen to ink up one monkey from the Monkey hugs stamp and stamped it above the sentiment. I used the Spectrum Noir pens and crayons to colour in the monkey.
A really quick card this time because of lack of time, next week is starting to look busy too!
Thanks for popping in. Take care.

"Less is More"
Hi Pippa, Happy Sunday. Hope you have a chance to look at the tutorial, as it's very easy to follow the instructions, and it makes a gorgeous background. I've done marbling with other alcohol inks, but using the markers was a different twist for me. It's probably been around for a long time (like the shaving cream stuff...but I'd never heard of it!). I'm having fun with the backgrounds. Some work, some don't for me. Hugs
