It's a Pirate's Life

It was my nephew's Birthday on Thursday and now I'm sure he's had my card I can now show it on my blog.
Yes its another Side Step card, I can't help it now that I found out how easy they are to make I have to make them.
Obviously you can see that its a pirate's scene, I've used High Hopes ship, Pirate and Palm tree. The map and barrels are Magnolia but they worked a treat with the High hopes stamps.
The papers are Echo park but not sure of the collection possible Summer Days. I used the EK success scroll and dot border punch a couple of time for the sea. The number and words are actually stickers.
The latest challenge on the High Hopes Challenge is numbers I think this would work and hope they forgive me for using magnolia for some of the images.
Jake had a Star Wars fancy dress party and his Uncle Tim (my nephew) came as Chewbacca!
