I have used one of Doodle Pantry's brand new sets called Lil Gorilla Jungle. Isn't he cute? I printed the pre-colored image on white card stock and then cut him out by hand. I used a red glitter Sakura gel pen to color in the heart he is holding, as well as a few of the hearts scattered on the background (it's very hard to see it in the picture). The tree and hearts are a cut file from Silhouette's Online Store (Design #72710). This tree is actually a 3d image, but I only cut 1 and I removed the perforation. I cut the tree using white card stock and then distressed it with Going Gray ink so it would stand out a little bit against the white background. The hearts were cut out using red card stock and glued in place over some of the branches. I cut a few extra hearts out so I could place them in the background as well. I added clear crystals in the center of the hearts that are in the tree. The sentiment is also a cute file from Silhouette (Design #56743). I cut this out using red card stock and glued it in place over the trunk of the tree. I used foam dots to pop-up the gorilla. I used the sentiment "I'm ape over you" on the inside of the card. Here is what you get in this set.
