I chose to combine two stamp sets this time. The River Raft set is a new release for this month and Pirate Birdie is an older set. As soon as I saw the raft, I wanted to use this birdie. Using my image software, I combined the raft and sail from River Raft and the birdie and chest from Pirate Birdie. I did a horizontal flip on the chest so it was facing the other way. I printed it on white card stock and colored it with Copic markers (bird - B32, B34, B37; beak & foot - YR20, YR23; raft - E42, E84, E87; sail - E40, E42; hat, patch & chest - C2, C5, C9). I used the clear Sakura glitter pen on the corners of the chest and the hook. I printed the digital designer paper that comes with this set and mounted it on navy card stock and then a white card stock base. The image and sentiment were distressed with blue ink and mounted on navy card stock. I added clear square crystals, a red round crystal and 11 medium and small round gold crystals and then a little string of pearls in and on the chest. Here is a picture of the River Raft set:
