Ahoy! This week our cards are for James, an absolutely adorable little boy with tumors in his spine and brain. James just loves pirates, so we'll have a seaworthy tea party this week. Let me steer you in the right direction to find all of the details...arrrrrhh! MMTPT211-Aug 14, 2012 Ahoy Mateys by JustMe427 at Splitcoaststampers
Stamped the image from Little Boys in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with Copics. Stamped the senti from Ahoy Matey and punched. The unknown map image was stamped on tan in Soft Suede, distressed with Old Paper and distressing tool and edges curled. (I used lighter weight paper from Mikes to facilitate curling the edges) Mounted all on a card that had been sponged with Pool, Bayou and Caribbean, added the dubloons. Stamped the compass, covered with CE and added the TH game spinner. PT - 10
Thank you so much for looking. Great job with the challenge, Rosalia! Have a peaceful day.

Just awesome! Love that image and you colored it perfectly. Your background is just fabulous, so glad that you mentioned that you use lighter weight card stock for curling...I've been trying to figure out how that was done forever. Why that never occurred to me, I don't know. But thanks for the tip!
