Ahoy There Matey's

Happy Wednesday all!
It's time for the new challenge at Dude Time Doodles!
Are you ready & raring to go??
This week for our Inspirational Challenge
The Theme is
We want to see "Buttons" on your projects for "Dude's"
Here's my card


I made a little scalloped circle easel card.
I used my largest nestie to cut it out!
I used the next size down for the DP & cut out the image 
with a plain circle die.
The papers are from my K&Co Hopscotch Boy pad!

I've been dying to work with this little guy for ages!
He was semi retired but has been made to walk the plank once again 
to search for treasure or is it to drink Rum???
 You can find him hiding in the Dude Time Doodles Store
I coloured him up with my usual mix of Flexmarkers & Promarkers
The gold anchor charm was originally silver coloured,
it was coloured with promarkers too then added with some twine!


The sentiment is from Dude Time Doodles too!
If you look closely you can see the designs on my buttons,
the little one has a fish & the lager an anchor!
Thanks for dropping by!
I hope you enjoyed your visit!
