Ahoy Matey

I am just loving these soon to be released Lili of the Valley boys stamps (less than a week now peeps).  How cute is this Pirate Bear!!  I did the card for this weeks Lili of the Valley challenge which is Animal Antics.

The flag is a download from the web, I smudged the ink on the corner after the card was assembled and I was so not going to start again.  Looks like it was meant to be there (well that’s my story anyway lol).  The raffia ribbon started life as ecru so I swiped  a Walnut Stain inkpad over it a couple of times as it was too insipid against the pale papers.
