Ahoy! Matey!

Have you ever seen a dragon pirate (or is it pirate dragon)? This one is just adorable! The ship deck and water background, keg, box, cannonballs and the pirate are all digi images from Dustin Pike.

They are all colored with Prismacolor markers and Prismacolor pencils. The images are layered for a 3D effect. There's a little bit of stitching on the paper layers and some big waves stitched inside. The embossed background paper is inked in gold as are the edges of the various paper layers.
The challenge this week at Creative Card Crew is to make a card with a scene. I've entered this card.

  3. Awesome! You and Dustin P. make a great team Cindy. I am in awe of the green paper! Looks like Cuttlebug folder swirls but how did you get the color in the swirls?
    Too cool! Love how you colored the image too!
    Hugs!
