instructions
  1. Cheeky Monkeys - 1 Cut blue card 15cm x 23cm and fold in half to make a blank. Stick white card onto the front and two pieces on the inside, allowing a border of the blue to show around the edges. Die-cut ten monkeys in five different colours. Stick each pair together to give the shape more depth without using foam pads. Add a strip of vine and leaves to the left-hand side of the card front and attach the monkeys on top.

    2 Die-cut letters to spell 'four cheeky monkeys' in various colours and fix to the front. Make more letters to say 'swinging in a tree. One fell off', arrange on the right of the inside and stick down. On the left spell 'then there were three' and stick on diagonally. Die-cut a length of vine and one green monkey and attach to the furthest right side on the inside of the card.
