Challenge # 7--Arrrgh

We are trying something a little bit different this time here on Scrappy Frog. We wanted to see what everyone could come up with using the same exact background image. The image we have chosen is a digital one that can be downloaded for free (hey, the price is right!) from Dustin Pike. It is called Pirate Dragon Background click HERE to download the image. To participate in this challenge, you must use the provided Dustin Pike background in your project. If you are unfamiliar with digital stamps, they are actually very user friendly. You can open them in a photo editing software, paint, word, etc. and resize them to however small or large you need them to be. Then, print it out on your home printer and color away. I printed mine on neenah cardstock in my inkjet printer and colored with copics and the ink was perfect. Some people may find they need to let the ink set a little or even heat set with a heat gun to prevent bleeding. I think it all depends on the ink. So, dig deep and find your inner pirate and show us what you come up with. The prize for this challenge is a surprise, kind of like finding a hidden treasure- you don't know what it's going to be, but it's a treasure so you know it's going to be good! AHOY and start crafting!
