An Adorable Sailor Card - Crafty Gals Corner GD

I've had a dearth of birthday cards lately, and my guy stash has been especially low. So when Crafty Gals Corner asked me to be a guest designer for the month of December, and then sent over Captain Owen from the Paper Nest Dolls, I was pleased as punch!

With images like these, I can't help but to go all cute and bright with my design. 


 I colored him in using Spectrum Noir markers and then made the "water" using some gelatos that I blended together. The sentiment is one that I had from the Inspired By Stamping Ahoy Matey set. I added a little metal anchor and some twine and woop! woop! I had a birthday card to add to my stash! 


Crafty Gals Corner is a weekly challenge and they've got prizes to give away. For the month of December, CGC is making it easy on us by saying it's Anything Goes! 

 Speaking of challenges, I'm going to send this cutie over to:
Simon Says Stamp Monday - Gentlemen
Crafting by Design - Anything Goes
Mod Squad - Tic Tac Toe (I chose favorite color {red}, digi stamp, and patterned paper)

Thanks for popping by! I love to read your comments and appreciate all the word smiles you all leave me! :)
