Little Dudes Pirate - Polkadoodles Crafting Challenge - Week 23

 Good morning, lovelies!  It's Saturday and that means we have a new Anything Goes Challenge up on the Polkadoodles blog! 

This week, we were challenged to create an easel card.  I wanted to try something different, and I found a Square Easel Fold Card tutorial by Gloria Plunkett, so I went to work creating!   I had so much fun coloring the Little Dudes Dragon Onesie, that I decided I wanted to make another card using this collection.  I colored up the Little Dudes Pirate with Copic markers (colors listed below), cut out the image and set it aside. 

I wanted to keep the color palette a bit subtle so that the image itself would stand out.  I used one of the digital papers that comes as a bonus with the digital stamp and then chose some solids that coordinated with the paper.  I used the Deckle Die Set from Stampendous to cut out the blue and gray panels.  

Lastly, I adhered one of the sentiments that is included with the stamp.  I just LOVE this little fella and the fact that the card folds flat and will fit in a standard envelope, and it stands on its own to display.
