Yo.. ho.. ho!

This was one of those cards that was perfect in my head, I just couldn't seem to get it down on paper. To be honest, the more I look at it, the less I like it!! Sometimes you just need to step away, don't you?
Anyhoo, I am entering it for this week's challenge at Pollycraft, where I followed the great sketch by Sue. Head on over there and check out the fab DT work that show off the fabulous Pollycraft images. You dont have to use a Pollycraft image to join in with the challenge, but if you do you could be picked as a 'Pollycraft Favourite'.

I used Pirate Ethan as my image, which was a Friday Freebie from the Pollycraft Blog. He was coloured with Copics.
I made the little treasure map myself, and distressed the edges.
The skull and crossbones flag was from an online colouring site, scaled down to fit my card.
Design Paper is My Mind's Eye, Wild Asparagus.
Brads and corner pieces from my stash.
