Baby Shower card for a first-time to be Mommy, Kayla- who has collected sock monkey's since childhood. Had to borrow this set, and used SU's Linen over pretty in Pink for the main image. The little hat has hot pink Fun Flock and is wrapped in a pink gingham bow. I am tickled at how this turned out, and I also made a pink "for reals" sock monkey to go with.
Inside is also stamped in pink and reads "A Baby is God's Opinion that the world should go on."
Thanks for looking!

So very sweet Pat! I am fascinated by sock monkeys. I tell myself I am too old for them... :-( I'm young at heart? Doesn't that count? So lovely my friend!

Well, maybe it's the pink hat or the wee little pink bow but this sock monkey doesn't 'skeer' me like sock monkeys usually do. ;-) Cute idea to use the linen background over the image! Fun baby card my friend! Hugs to you!
