morning all
there is a new challenge at 


you must use a Delicious Doodles image
i have used 



the base is an 8 x 8 black card, i printed the map and did the old tea bag dye thing,
 cut it out, crumpled it up and went over with a brown ink pad to  highlight the crumples.
next i printed and coloured Gothicka  with spectrum noir markers, fussy cut her and added to the card, i found a pic of a flag and some doubloons on the net, printed and cut them out.
then i finished it off with her pearls and gems , after all a pirate has to have her treasure ;)

morning guys
well here i am with day 2 of this weeks 
makes, boy its been crazy here what with one thing and another, 
hope life calms down soon lol anyway here is my make


i have used 
& the sentiment from

first i sponged the base card in shabby shutters & broken china distress ink 
to give the effect of a landscape .
next i stamped the forest background in Foliage Big and Juicy ink, once the stamp was inked i went over it with pin needles distress ink, using the edge of the ink pad to give the effect of vines on the tree.
then i added some grass in pine needles.
the butterfly was stamped in black and then painted with inktense, while it was drying i added some white splatter to the background.
to make the scroll banner i used tea dye distress ink and just rubbed the ink pad over the paper on both sides, stamped the sentiment and then ripped the paper around, curled the ends and stuck in place, then the butterfly was added and a bit of bling just had to go on his body :).
then the whole thing was mounted onto coordinating card.

hope you like it 
hugs
