Another DT card for The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Ladies, well its raining again and its still blowing gales as well, not nice and poor hubby has just gone to post a parcel for me, just hope he doesnt get to wet. Anyway as Im still a bit busy at the moment catching up with my DT work and I thought Id let you see another of my DT cards made for The Paper Shelter by the way we will be starting the new Challenges on Wednesday 16th February, and you will find us here and Im so looking forward to being part a of a very talented team and I sincerely hope that your will take part in our challenges to.
Anyway todays card has been created using The Paper Shelters "Arr Pirates" and it has four digi's images in the set and Ive used two of them, I printed both onto two different pieces of card, coloured them with my copic pens then cut out the pirate captain completely and then stuck it on the other piece of card by the side of the canon. I then cut it out with my rotatrim and mounted onto a piece of dark blue card. The sentiment was created on my computer and mounted in the same way as the image.
The base card is a 6"x 6" white card with a first mount of blue card and three papers from Donna's Bearlymine Digi Papers "Grunge Days" the first one is blue baised one and then with the other two theyve been cut into stripes and Ive used a border punch down the two sides of each of them, then layered up and stuck down the middle of the first mount, the mounted image has then been stuck on top and the sentiment down below on the right hand side. The last finishing touch is the chest of gold button thats been stuck to the left hand side at the bottom.

Hi Shirley

Isn't it lovely to be craftily busy? Far better than the washing and ironing type of busy!! LOL!!!

I hope Hubby got back safe and sound without getting too wet.

It has been really windy here and my washing just didn't want to stay on the line!!

Loving your card. A great fun image and that shiny treasure chest is fab!!

Have a good evening.
