my old friend

While rummaging through the box of scraps I use for press packing I came across a perfect print of my old friend Sparkle Monkey. He was my second most popular card (the gnome has always been my best seller) for many years until Monk decided he was a chew toy. 

As I recall, he was named by a friend's daughter when she was a toddler + in return I gave her a one-of-a-kind Sparkle Monkey T-shirt I stenciled with freezer paper when that DIY project was all the rage in blogland.
