Talk Like A Pirate

Today is Talk Like a Pirate Day!  In honor of this day I have a punch art pirate card.  I am a huge fan of punch art and I loved figuring this cute guy out.

I used the Square Lattice Folder to give the shirt dimension and used the Linen Thread for his belt for a rustic, beached look.

It took some experimenting, but I finally found exactly the look I wanted for the sand.  I started with Crumb Cake cardstock, tore the edges, and sponged it with More Mustard.  Perfect!
