I Like You More Than Bananas

Happy Saturday! I skipped a day of coloring so I can keep this card a surprise. Surprise! Monkeys in space!! Aren’t they adorable? It’s been awhile since I continued my 3 cards a stamp set, but I love these monkeys so much you’ll definitely see these critters come back… and soon!

I first created the space background with distress inks and created stars with white acrylic paint. I then colored the monkeys and bananas with copic markers and a little additional shading with color pencils.

The space helmets are created with small die cut circles. The bottom layer behind the monkey is cut from vellum, and the circle in front of the monkey is cut from acetate. The acetate adds the perfect touch to add a reflective surface to the helmets!

Love the effect! Don’t you agree?

Hope you enjoy today’s inspiration!

Cheers,
