Funny Monkey Birthday Card

Created this card with a BugABoo digi, MStalljungleblocks Monkey, and a funny theme in which my funny is that the Monkey swings back & forth across the card.

Colored the digi with computer. Printed digi on white cardstock. Used Kraft cardstock for base & sentiment tag. Used animal scrapbook paper for layer. Attached digi with a brad but I did not flatten it snug which allows the monkey to swing back & forth. Stamped sentiment. Used recycled buttons and twine tied as bows thru the buttons to attach sentiment tag.
