Do Do Do the Funky Gibbon ...

Afternoon peeps - can't believe its the middle of the week already and I'm not nearly half way through these card orders - gosh, I can really spin them out cant I! ...lol..  I keep finding other wee jobs to do instead of getting stuck into them.

While tiding up my stash at the weekend, I came across a Kanban sheet of animals which I have had for yonks and yonks, so I decided to make a concious effort to use it.  I managed to make four cards out of it, which this is one of them.  The backing paper is from a Docrafts paperpack and tools used were a Cuttlebug embossing folder and my Circle Nesties.  The challenges I have entered it into are:-

• CRAFT Challenges  -  Film Inspired  (Plant of the Apes)
