Have you heard of Punch the monkey over in Japan? This cute little abandoned snow monkey who carries around a stuffed monkey is now a sweet little stamp set over at Unity Stamp Co.!
I decided that I wanted to create a sunset background. I took out my distress inks and using a wet paintbrush, pulled the colour smooshed onto an acrylic block. Next, I painted up the monkey and his stuffy with distress inks and gouache paint. I set the image onto some leafy paper I found in my stash. You can see a video tutorial below:
