I got a good laugh at this one when I first saw it. Look at that cute pup being held over the food bowl hahaha!
I colored my image with distress ink refills and used paper from Hobby Lobby with the pirates all over. The flags were cut with my cricut as well as the letters. I used the Whimsy die cut - Notables 3 for the sentiment which was done on the computer.
Please have a visit at my teammates blogs and see what they did with "Walk The Plank". This is a great way to get ideas if you have already purchased this stamp or plan on purchasing it soon.
I also wanted to show you a picture of the completed pool project for our backyard. We love it and plan on having many swim days very soon. We went from this (the pool people marked out the pool with string):
To this:
Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope you were inspired just a bit!
Big hugs, Dena

Oh My Word, girlie, im so jealous, just goes to show how differently we all live in the U.K compared to you lot over there, my yard isn't big enough to have a paddling pool, lol, let alone a gorgeous pool, if i win the lottery thats the first thing i want in my new house, as swimming is the only form of exercise i can do, and it would have to be in a poolhouse as our weather isn't warm enough even in summer we are lucky to get a few days of hot weather!!! LOL, im not kidding either! You must be over the moon with it though Dena, joking aside, its absolutely gorgeous....do have fun!! and your card is lovely as always, you know im one of your biggest fans, and i love the fact the dog is being made to walk the plank into his bowl, lol, so stinkin cute......i must also thankyou for your kind words after losing my brother last week, bless you my friend xxxxx Vick
