Pirate Birthday Card

Not being able to sleep sucks! This is the 3rd or 4th night this week that I have been up all night. My head is killing me, my stomach is a mess.....ok, that's enough "poor, poor, pitiful me."

I was directed to a new digital stamp site (at least new to me) that has some very cute stuff: Hambo Stamps. And like I always do on a new site, I just start clicking stuff. Well, I ended up on their blog. And, guess what.....they have a challenge. Each week participants are given a new digital stamp (FREEBIE), and the challenge requirements.

This week's stamps was a pirate with several sentiments. It took me a little bit to figure out what I wanted to do with a pirate, and settled on this:
 

This is my first center step card, and I think it turned out very cute.

Card Base: Recollections black cardstock

Treasure maps: treasure map coloring page, printed on Stampin' Up Very Vanilla paper, colored with Stampin up inks and blender pen, distressed with Vintage Photo distress ink.

Blue back ground paper: DCWV Old world stack

Sand: Kraft paper scrap

Pirate: colored with sharpie markers, obtained from Hambo stamps.

Treasure chest: Coloring page. Colored with Stampin' Up ink and blender pen.

Hope you like it. Have a great day!
