As usual, Its been a long time since my last post. The days fly by while life happens. On with the post! This page is one of my most favorite to date. This layout was entirely based on the invitation that I made for Tanners 2nd birthday. We had a pirate party. The patterned pirate paper in the background, I made. I took a sheet of Very Vanilla, stamped the pirate all around the edges and then colored them in. I then took a sponge and Close to Coca ink and Chocolate Chip ink, and sponged all over, especially around the edges, to give it a worn look.

Supplies:

Stamp Sets: Ahoy Matey
Card Stock: Groom Specialty Paper, Real Red, Tempting Turquoise, Basic Black, Very Vanilla.
Ink: Basic Black and Chocolate Chip and Close to Coca for sponging.
Accessories: Clear Buttons, Silver Elastic Cord, Black Brads, Sponges, and Cricut for the lettering.
