A Pirate's Life for Me




Hi everyone and Happy Tuesday :) I hope you are all having a wonderful week. I have a quick post for you today, I have so much to get done and so little time :) For my card today, I just had to ink up my new stamps from Sweet Pea Stamps. This one is from the most recent ching-chou kuik release and is called Unregrettable Pirate Life. I love these images! :) I inked the image with Memento Black ink, stamped it onto PTI white cardstock, and colored the image in with copics. I added some Martha Stewart glitter to the mermaid tail. Next I created my card base out of SU cardstock (Chocolate Chip and Real Red). The design paper is from a pack I picked up at Michael's probably over a year ago. It's made by Deja Views. I used my SU ticket corner punch on all corners and added red pearls. I used my Martha Stewart edge punch on the top piece of design paper, then added swirls from my Fiskar's swirl punch and some red roses from Wild Orchid Crafts for a finishing touch. What do you think?

Thanks so much for stopping by today. I hope you all have a wonderful day and I'll see you back here tomorrow.

Big Hugs, Christine
