Happy Birthday, Matey!

Hi there!

This is Tanya from Studio 5380 stopping by to share a pirate themed birthday card with you today.  I had so much fun with these adorable images from Lawn Fawn....

I mean, seriously, how cute are these guys?

These adorable little pirate images are from Lawn Fawn's Ahoy, Matey Stamp Set.  I colored them with my Copic markers and cut them out with the coordinating Ahoy, Matey Lawn Cuts.  The little seashells are from another darling Lawn Fawn set,  Mermaid For You.

I added a little sparkle to several images with a Clear Spectrum Noir Sparkle Pen and gold Stickles.

To create my card panel, I inked up my cardstock with my Mini Ink Blending Tool and several colors of Distress Ink including:  Mermaid Lagoon, Salty Ocean,  Carved Pumpkin and Worn Lipstick.

For finishing touches to my card, I used a White Uni-Ball Signo Pen to add a few "waves" to my ocean.  I also added a few Copic marker dots to the sand to create a little texture.

Before adding my completed panel to the card base, I distressed the edges of my kraft paper with a Tim Holtz Paper Distresser and inked up the edges with some brown ink.  

And, there you have it!

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  Have a great day and I'll see you soon!
