Ape for You Valentine

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne posting today.  I have a quick Valentine's Day card for you today.
First, I stenciled the cloud background on a piece of card stock slightly larger than A2.
I used Soft Sky ink.
I cut the monkey from two shades of brown card stock and used a black pen to color the eyes.
I cut the hearts from both pink and red card stock and the branch from dark brown.
I cut the stenciled panel down to 5 3/8 x 4 1/8 inches and adhered it to an A2 red card base.  Then I glued the branch and hearts to the upper portion of the card.
I stamped the sentiment on the pink card stock and used the second smallest heart to cut it out.  Then I placed everything on the card base before gluing down.
While the branch, hearts and sentiment are all glued to the card, the monkey is popped up using foam.
