Monster High

Greetings everyone!

10/11/2016
Well now that Halloween is well and truly gone and the stores aren't scared to remind us that Christmas is on the way (decorations up from the 1st on November!!) I decided to do a monster themed card, but giving those little monsters a well earned break. 

Monsters and Halloween creepers have worked their little furry bottoms off spooking everyone, so why not reward with a cup of coffee and a cheeky pun? 


So after quite the intro, here are the fuzzy little guys!




Here is our green guy, kermit. 

Sadly I dropped a tiny bit of inky water on his cheek and it 'curdled' the paper. How it rolls a little and peels, tried to fix it the best I could and I think he still looks ok :)


And secondly, our blue buddie, Sully

The stitching is slightly off centre but as a perfectionist I can't seem to look past it, haha. But I love the vibrant colours and the contrast of blue and the yellow. 

I think this would be a great card for a boys birthday party perhaps? Or a baby shower. Oh the ideas are flowing...
