I had a total blast with the next image too. Tikki Monkey is sporting some awesome Coconuts dont you think???
I sat here for the longest time trying to think of WHAT embellishment I could use for her bra. Then I came up with the idea of doing a really bad job of recoloring a brad.
First, I heated the normal silver brad.
Then I dipped the hot brad into brown embossing powders.
And then heated again. And while it was still hot I dipped it again. Allowing the powder to get bumpy and really ragged looking. I think it looks awesome myself.
I then double layered the Monkey's skirt too and cut slits to make it whip in the wind. I also popdotted the whole monkey so that he would stand out against the little dudes on the side. Again, my pic does it no justice!!
So thats it for my coming out show and tell. I hope youll visit Dustin today and see what else he has going on over there.
We are still desperately praying for a buyer for our house. Funny how the Lord's timing is never early. Please continue to pray for a buyer with a fair price to come our way soon.
How are YOU? Are you up and showered and ready for the day? Are you bright eyed and bushy tailed? Or are you still grumbling? In any case I hope that you are wonderful and are very blessed today.

You did a really great job on the cards. I love the tools down the side of the card and the dimension you gave to the monkey card with the flower, coconuts, and skirt.
These are both wonderful!! Thanks for the tip about the crockpot -- our oven doesn't have a see-through door, so the girls never get to watch their Shrinky Dinks do their thing. But we have a crockpot, so we'll give it a try. I love how you got creative on the monkey's coconuts!!
