Ahoy Mateys!

I have to admit that my 7 year old son keeps me fairly busy in many aspects, and especially when it comes to crafting :-)
He has so many little friends and birthday parties to attend to (with handmade cards by mum, of course), he surely has a better social life than me!!
This particular card is for one of his best mates, Darragh, who turned 6 recently. For it I used
Pirate Ethan, from Pollycrafts, coloured with Letraset Promarkers. The fantastic backing paper is from Free Digital Scrapbooking (thanks, Marie! http://www.freedigitalscrapbooking.com/)
The sketch is an old one from Eat Sleep Stamp.
Some challenges:
Totally Stampalicious - Emboss it
Creative Inspirations - Friendship
ABC - Anything goes
Aud Sentiments - Anything goes
Penny's Papercrafty - Anything goes
