Pirate Chick!

This week's SNB image for the Creative Chick Challenge #20 is a cutie..... aptly named Cute Pirate! I have always loved pirate movies, and am such a devotee of the man himself, Captain Jack Sparrow - mostly I'm sure because it's Johnny Depp.  I can't wait for the 4th PotC movie!!! I had to use Black Pearls in this challenge....

Ingredients: Digi Image - SNB; Cardstock - Craft Affair, SU!, Kaisercraft; Markers - SU!; Stardust Glitter Pens - Sakura; Black Pearls - Kaisercraft

I wanted to keep her in black, but twisted in Halloween-ish colours (orange, purple).  I've used simple layers of cardstock to create the card, becuase I'm in a CAS mood again today. But to make her pop, I cropped and trimmed the image, so that the sword was out of the border, and left it over the back layers.  I added Stardust glitter pens to glitz the sword, cuffs, neckline, boot cuffs, and the edges of the hat.... I mean she isn't a scary pirate, so she can afford a little glitz! 

Since I chose the colours from the Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #81 pic this week, I've entered her in the challenge there too...

Thanks for peepin'!
