Hello 

 
This week Sweet Sketch Wednesday is being sponsored by Digi Stamp Boutique. Sally Ann is a long time sponsor of mine...clear back from the very beginning. She always sponsors once a month.



 

When I saw this sweet Digi at Sally's store I knew I must do it. I love how it turned out. The pictures are never near as good as the card either.


I went hunting for Pirate paper and found this adorable paper at Hobby Lobby.  When using the paper I realized that my ships would not show if I put three embellishments there. But then I realized, hey I could get three ships right there on the side and they would fit perfectly. So there ya have it. Then I took those three ships and put crystal effects over the ships and cut them out and used them as embellishments. It all fit and worked so perfectly as if I had planned it.


Well the design team has cooked up some lovely eye candy so bug on over and take a look. While you're at it, have a SWEET day!!!
