Ahoy There Pirate Edwin !!!

     
Hi

Today I would like to show you a card I've made ready for William's Birthday - it's not until 18 July, but there's nothing like being prepared LOL !!!


I used Pirate Edwin from Magnolia and coloured him using my Copic Markers.  I inked around him using Ranger Distress Ink in Black Soot.  I also used this to ink around the backing paper used on the base card and the red and white stripey paper which was a freebie from Martine.  Thanks Martine !!!


I'm entering this card into the following challenges

Simon Says ... - Pirates
One Stop Craft Challenge - One for the Boys.
Sweet Stampin Challenge - CAS (Clean And Simple)



Recipe:

Stamp: Magnolia Pirate Edwin
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black and Ranger Distress Ink in Black Soot
Papers: Red Stripey Paper from Martine, the rest from my stash.
Button and Pearls: From my stash

Thanks for stopping by today.  Hope you like it.

Hugs
