Hi everyone, For this month's paper clip, I wanted the feel of a pirate ship flag to match the pirate's Costume that this Santoro Gorjuss Mini Stamp No-49 Piracy. My theme this month was Halloween, so I tried to achieve a little girl dressed in her pirate costume "being brave" enough to go up to that scary looking house to ask for the mother of all candy loot *lol* The background was achieved by stencilling with paint (Dyan Reaveley Blue) and white acrylic paint. I used 2 stencils. To achieve the flag ship look, I added bits of hessian, cord, and ribbon around the periphery using a mini stapler. The haunted house is a die-cut using this Haunted house thinlets die by Sizzix: I hope you enjoyed this month's video.
