Thank you everyone for your kind comments last challenge, I really enjoyed looking at everyone's work. As you know I have just had a total hip replacement that has left me unable to do much crafting, if any. But I just had to keep up with this one. The background is a copy of a treasure map showing the wrecks of the Spanish Fleet around the coast of Florida, aged with walnut ink,on top of which is my favourite drawing of Blackbeard the Pirate, gold doubloons, rubies, pearls, gold ingots and emeralds all caught in a net along the bottom. A copy of a Letter of Marque on onion paper singed at the edges with a wax seal and my torn out dictionary piece for Pirate and Privateer finish off the spread.
At the moment I am not supposed to bend more than 90 degrees so sitting and typing is banned. Got my partner to do this for me. I will continue to look at and enjoy everyone's work but comments will be few and far between.
