Shiver Me' Timbers
Alison has chosen a cool Blog Hop theme to celebrate the summer, Shiver Me' Timbers!!! Here's what Alison says:
"Arrrrrrrrr!!!! In honor of the latest Pirates of the Carribean flick, and the start of Summer (cruises and such...work with me here, folks) I decided what better theme than pirates! More like the phrase "Shiver me timbers!" Now, I am thinking pirates...but what do YOU think of when you hear that phrase?"
Here is my take on Alison's theme! I paper-pieced the galleon from the Homeward Bound Bombshell stamp set with the lush Cosmo Cricket 'Wanted' papers.
I used the compass and serpent stamps in the background (Tim Holtz Distress Ink Frayed Burlap)
I used Aged Mahogany Distress Ink to colour the ribbon.
Close- up of the paper piecing:
So if you started at my blog you can HOP along to the Stempelientje's Blog (just click on the link below) and you can see what the rest of the Design Team (and our guests!) have come up with!
I hope you enjoyed the projects by everyone, be sure to leave a little love on everyone's blogs for a chance to be entered into the Bombshell Draw for a set of stamps!!
Keep Crafting!

This is amazing. I love paper piecing but it never turns out this well. Love the tag x
Whoa. That's some seriously fantastic paper piecing. The ship looks fabulous like that.
I love your background paper and your Distress-dyed ribbon too.
Tags are one of my favorite things and this was is great. The stamped background paper is neato and I really like the patterned paper you chose to use for the ship
What a great tag! Great work as usual
Katie, your paper piecing is amazingly perfect! Beautifully done!!!
Katie, I love that you did the paper piecing on the boat. AMAZING. I kept going back and looking at how you did that and it is PERFECTION.

Have a great day :)
