What a thrill to be the TGIF guest designer! Thank you for asking me, Sandy and Heike!
Here's my little Pirate. He's a photo image from Memories Of A Lifetime, printed, cut out, and glued with dimensional tape inside the treasure chest. The background paper is from DCWV and the assorted embellishments are from Karen Foster Designs, Jolee's Boutique, and Sandylion Essentials. There are extra beads, gems and gold accents, along with extra glitter, home-made stamps with black Staz-on, Versamark, and gold embossing.
Have a great day, Everyone! I can't wait to see all your pirate artwork!
Oh Barbara this is brilliant. So unbelievable. Wonderful, amazing and cute.
