I used an image called AKV Pirate parrot, colored with Promarkers and fussy cut it.
The background is made by using a honeycomb like embossing folder as stamp, I sponged the background with DI and finally used a Prima map stamp and black ink. I cut a out a part with a Dienmaics banner die, layered it onto a black one and onto the leftover of my own made paper. A leftover piece of a Maja Design paper and jute paper was used. The banner was die cut, inked and stamped, and I used a black pen to make the lines along the edges.This card is also for:

Great take on the sketch, Pia, and wonderful card! Love the bright, vibrant, happy colors and delightful pirate! Hugs, de
ReplyDeleteI like cute pirates much better than the fierce looking ones, and this guy's a winner. Love the background, and how interesting to read how you created it. Also like the texture of the burlap and the black stitched frames. Good idea to use the burlap to add some dimension to that top layer. Must remember that, It's not only a good design look, but I like the 'lift' it appears to give the 2 top layers. Also just noticed the fishtail finish with the pirate overhanging another layer! TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteFabulous creative and love the image coloured beautifully.xx
