Ok, to make the monkey i just traced the image with an x-acto nife, but just the body, face and ears. I made the hands, feet, mouth, eyes, cheeks and tail by hand. I also traced the giraffe body and made the rest by hand, i meant the tail, the dots on the body (for this i used the wilton tips # 9 and 7), the eyes, mouth, cheeks, the feet and those little things they have on the head. And last but not least the tiger, for this one i used just cutters, with a circle cutter i made the head and the body (different sizes) in an almond shape. For the ears i used the littler petal cutters from the wilton flower set and for the tail and feet a made a snake and cutted in peaces and painted the stripes with the wilton markers. hope this info help you. Can't way to see how the cake turns out. Good luck.
