Cute and Scary Pirate Card

September 21, 2011 by Holly Gagnon 10 Comments

      I can’t decide if my Pirate is scary or cute?   I’ve been playing with my Cricut  Mini Monster’s cartridge lately and since it there’s a  cute Pirate cut included, I thought I’d make a Halloween card.

After I cut out the die cut layers with my Cricut,  I added some texture embossing on  the Pirate to make him look crusty, added a brad as an earring then put a bat on his eye patch instead of a skull and bones.  If something scary like this lil’ guy  rang my doorbell,  I’d give him all my candy!   Aaargh!
