Flying Monkey ACEO Bookmark

I drew this devious flying monkey a few years ago as a minion for my Ogre. He hasn't been available as a bookmark in the past because he growled ferociously when I tried to stuff him into the standard skinny format. However, I've been seeing more and more artists create bookmarks in ACEO size. I approached him again this week, inspired by brown week over at the Summer of Color.

I went prepared with a banana split bribe to keep his fang busy while he was cloned, laminated, and adorned with a decorative yarn. Don't make me sic my flying monkey on you - go give his ACEO bookmark some handmade love on Etsy.

    He is really adorable and does not look vicious at all, but then again looks can be deceiving.

    He looks really sweet, but monkeys always get up to monkey business! Valerie

    He's adorable--and I don't normally like monkeys because... they throw poop and stuff.

    He looks a bit cunning to me, as if he is hatching a plot. Fabulous character and drawing. Love it.

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 108th commenter, Andalene! Accessorize an outfit and rejuvenate your spirit at the same time! Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter. The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting.

Rica Jewels will email you within 24 hours with instructions on how to claim your prize. The winds of March are making me wonder why I haven't learned to properly braid my hair yet. Not only would my tresses get less tangled, but there are so many pretty patterns available online now. The only braid style I ever mastered was how to make friendship bracelets back in the 1980s. Daniela of Rica Jewels offers a much more intricate braided bracelet called the Kusma Bracelet. The mixed metal bracelet is made with silver, bronze and copper. The beautiful bracelet is 7" long and 0.4" width and can be bent gently on the edges to better fit the winner's wrist. Yes, you read that right. Daniela's giving the above bracelet away to one of my readers! Rica Jewels has several marvelous metal and beaded bracelets for sale. Daniela received a bachelor’s degree in ...
