Ironically, this monkey is for my uncle who is married to my aunt, the recipient of the Hot Chik card. I'm not particularly sure if he likes monkeys, but I love them. This is actually a tri-fold card. The front flaps are covered in red cardstock featuring random drawings of Sock Monkey's with a large monkey face. Each monkey face has bee
n embellished with flocking to add depth, texture and a separation in color
for monkey-face definition. The caption, "Monkey See" is featured on the left panel (panel 1); "Monkey Do," is featured on the right panel (panel 2). The three panels on the inside of the card is covered in bright red paper with bright yellow bananas; the left and right panels feature a monkey holding a banana. Yes, the bananas are also covered in flocking. The center panel is captioned, "Monkey Goes Bananas," and is covered in yellow flocking. This is the heaviest card I've ever made (shipping was $0.56 in standard mail), but it's rather charming. The center back panel is uncovered. That'
s where I put my stamp, but it can also be used for writing your sentiment since the inside of the card is covered and quite busy. It can be written on, but I would suggest using a felt-tipped pen so the writing will show up. Card measures 6 1/2" x 5" when folded and approximately 15" x 5" when all three panels are showing. Includes envelope.
