Raise those anchors and batten down the hatches as we embark on this great adventure! All aboard!

I took a few of pics of my ship shaped card!  The first one is free standing but my ship likes rock so I took another to make sure it wasn't blurry.

I simply cut a 5" circle and folded in half to create the card base.  I inserted a skewer that I chopped down to the size I wanted between the "wood" panel and the card base. I used my CM circle cutter to cut a tan circle 1/4" smaller and cut that in half.

I ran the panel through a wood grain embossing folder. inked it up with chalking ink then free handed the "planks".

The "sail" is a piece of wall paper sample with a skull and cross bones stamped and embossed on a piece of paper.  I inked up all edges to distress.  Then I added the wheel.

Ingredients:

Hampton Art Skull and crossbones stamp

Brilliance Graphite black and wow clear embossing powder

SU Hello Sailor stamp

AC Brown Sugar and Recollections clear bark embossing powder

Crafter's Companion woodgrain embossing folder

CM brown pen

copper brad

wallpaper sample from a bloggie friend

wood skewer

Quick Quotes chalking inks:  Milk Chocolate and Mahogany

Bazzill black card stock

misc card stock
