Ahoy, me hearties!

I had a nosey over at the PfP challenge blog to see what this week's challenge was - when I saw it was "a pirates life for me" I thought "oh well, can't enter that then". But on my jaunt over to The Papeterie yesterday to catch up with Charlotte, Rachel, Alanna and Kath, I spotted these cute little Nellie Snellen pirate stamps.


Image: Treasure from Nellie Snellen, stamped with Memento London Fog and coloured with Promarkers and Flexmarkers - got to use Antique White and Light Fawn on his shirt and Aquamarine around him.
Red, black and white cardstock from The Papeterie, Hero Arts canvas stripes cling stamp with Memento Ladybug Red, Papermania mini buttons, faux stitching with Tim Holtz design ruler, Sakura silver metallic pen and Letraset Fineliner


I'd like to enter him into...

Love your card Debbi. Everything co-ordinates so well down to the little spotty buttons. I just recently bought the canvas stripe background stamp that you've used and love it. Beautiful colouring on your image.
