The theme of Teapot Tuesday this week is "monkey around." If we're going to monkey around, can we do it at the beach? (yes, another Southerner who is so ready to see winter get out of our hair.)
This is my first shaker card, so I know it's not perfect, but there was something about this monkey that just wanted to be a shaker card. (The shaker has a couple of tiny starfish along with gold microbeads to be the sand).
Monkey is colored with pencils.

Love your strip of beach towel colours and the cute little beach scene you made for your monkey. I'm sure even monkeys get sick of the jungle and long for a day at the beach.

Super cleaver card. It must be so neat iRL when you shake it and the beads move. The monkey is colored so nicely and coordinates perfectly with the dp. Fantadtic creation.
