My son's 5th birthday party was a hit over the weekend. We had about 16 kids and 18 adults show up. And so now, I am finalizing my birthday party projects with this funky monkey thank you card.
I wanted to come up with something cute (but simple) to pass out to the people that celebrated with us.
I strayed from the pirate theme and went a completely different direction using the sets "Sock Monkey" and "Simple Birthday Thanks" (see image of this set at end of post).
On the front of the card, I stamped Mr. Monkey in Close to Cocoa ink and added a bunch of bright Summer Sun bananas. A basic sentiment, thanks a bunch! sums up just how we feel about the generosity of the families that attended his bash.
On the back of the card, I inked the center portion of "Simple Birthday Thanks" (also in Close to Cocoa).
Coming Soon: Getting geared up for the holidays!

I will fill in the child's name, description of gift and have Devlin sign all 12 thank you's.
This might be a daunting task for a 5 year old - but I'm going to attempt it. It's always fun to see my little guy's penmanship.

Great idea! I think it is important for kids to write thank you's, especially after a party. It's a lot of time/effort on your part to help him, but these little cards should make it easier. Some Mommy & son time!

Very cute Kris. It's always nice to get a thank you card - especially a handmade one!
