Your Ship or Mine??

7:00 AM

Time for another fun preview of Kraftin' Kimmie February Stamps!! I've got another fantastic image from the pirate line by our artist, Annie! This sassy gal's name is Polly the Bar Wench! Whenever I look at her I remember all the scenes at the port of Tortuga in the Pirates of the Caribbean movies....you know, with all the rum and bar brawls....and the sexy wenches!! haha!

So I stamped her on Neenah using memento ink and coloured her up with my Copics. I used E00, R20, R81, R83 and R85. For her hair I wanted to make it look black with a bit of a white/grey stripe up the side, so I used a bunch of the warm greys....W1, W3, W5, W7.

The papers I used for inspiration were ones I had in my gigantic stash o' papers and the line is called, appropriately enough, Pirate Princess by Rusty Pickle. I added some black rick rack, some layered flowers attached with glittery black brads and some black rhinestones at the bottom. The perfect finishing touch is the sentiment...hehe...which is from the new Pirate Sentiments set. All the stamps will be available on Sunday morning!!

I love the way this card turned out and needless to say, I'll be giving it to my honey pie on Valentine's Day! *wink, wink*

Now hop on over to the challenge blog where I've listed all the Krafty Girls that have more amazing samples to show ya!!!
