Here are all the hop stops in order

If you have come here from elsewhere, or get lost on your way through the hop, pop back to the ABC Challenge.

The theme is Y is for Yesterday ... either distressing, an old stamp or a previous ABC challenge theme.  I went for  X marks the spot - a pirate theme (22/06/11).

I coloured this cute LOTV Pirate Bear in using my Prisma pencils.  The image and mat are made from my deckled rectangles nesties.  The dp is from Cuddly Buddly and a pirate pack that Martine made (I'll find the link).  I added some card candy to finish it off. 



The kitten is off for his vaccination this morning, so no chance of me seeing my craft room until this evening :(  I will have a bit of time to hop along through the birthday celebrations though, and to look at the DT's gorgeous creations.

Challenges:
Lili of the Valley - celebrate (ABC anniversary)
Creative Stamp Friends - dots
Crafty Cardmakers - spots and stripes
