Safari Palz Card and New Design Team Spot

I have recently been accepted for a new Design Team spot with ScrappyDew Creations. This is my first project using Rob's files. I apologize for the photos, it is very dark and rainy today.

This is an action card based on a tutorial that Dena posted on her blog Here. If you have not been to her blog I suggest you check it out. She is very talented!

This card will be for my nephew for his birthday, he loves animals. I used the Safari Palz files, you can find them Here I used the Stylus on the rocks to give them a curved shape. I applied Stickles on the leaves and used an embossing folder on the crocodile. I also put a tree on the back of the card with some additional grass. This is what the back of the card looks like.

The lever on the right is what makes the monkey move up and down when the card opens and closes. The tab on the left is a support when the card is open.That does get glued to the front back of the card.

This is the front of my card. I used Porky's Font for the sentiment and joined it to the additional front shape I created in MTC, to create a cut out effect and then cut a piece of black card stock to shadow it. I also applied Stickles to the sentiment and the snake.

You notice the monkey is in the down position when the card is closed and then moves up into the tree when the card is open.

If anyone would like the card file you can download it Here. You can go to Dean'a Blog, link posted above to see how to put this card together. She gave me permission to create the file. Also, if you use it please give credit to her.
