A La Card Monkey Challenge 107

I made these cards for the A La Card Monkey Challenge 107. I turned the sketch on its side, I hope this is OK and it still counts.

I am trying out a new thing of making the same card but in a couple of colour ways. I want to give the cards I make to charity so hopefully this means I can make more cards and cut down on the faffing that I always end up doing when I start each card – that's the idea anyways!?

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Carfting. Lorry :o) xx
