Shiver Me Timbers

Arrgh, shiver me timbers I completed Amy's Friday sketch!! It's a great layout for combining and using up some papers. My friend Kris sent me this fabulous Basic Grey paper so I had to put it to good use. I used 3 different papers from that 6x6 pad. My Ollie is stamped on watercolor paper with Palette Noir. I then used SU markers and an aquapainter to color in the scene. The image is raised with dimensionals and I decorated the corner with some Dew Drops. Love those embellishments. I just use a mini glue dot to adhere them! Look what we have in the backyard. Ross worked out there all afternoon yesterday cleaning up a few beds and planting a couple things. Well out by the herb garden, we have a hollyhock and it grew so fast this year. It's already taller than me and check out all the buds that it's covered in!! I can't wait for them to bloom. Have a great day!!

Paper: Always Artichoke, Basic Grey - Periphery, Creamy Caramel, Soft Sky, watercolor
