Zoofari card and a prayer request


I borrowed this set from my friend Michelle and decided to start playing with it today. Here is the first card I made with it. I actually cased this from SCS with a few (very minor) changes.

It is my very first gate-fold card. I am pretty pleased with how it turned out. This little monkey just makes me smile! Isn't he just the cutest??!

I hand cut the scalloped circle, though I won't have to do that for much longer because I ordered a set of nesties today!! YAY! I just got the small scalloped circles to start with. Then I'll probably order another set in a couple weeks because I know I'm going to use the living daylights out of these things! I colored the monkey in with my Pebbles Inc. chalk. The sentiment is from a Michael's set of stamps. I hand doodled the border around the monkey.

On another note, I found out a few minutes ago that my sister is in the hospital (she's 9 months pregnant) and found out that she has a kidney stone. SO they are going to go ahead and induce her and deliver the baby so that they can treat the kidney stone. If you could all keep her and her hubby, the baby (Logan Michael) and her 4 yr old daughter, Kylie in your prayers through this time I'd appreciate it! Her delivery with Kylie was difficult and she had to stay in the hospital for an extended time. Let's pray this one goes much more smoothly and that she and my new nephew will be safe and healthy!
