A PIRATE THEMED BIRTHDAY CARD FOR KEEGAN'S THIRD BIRTHDAY

I was asked to make a 3rd birthday card with a pirate theme for a friend's grandson, Keegan. 
Here is the card I made, using three Bugaboo Stamps:

The images featured on the card were coloured using alcohol markers and a white gel pen and they are:




The sentiment and the child's name were created in WordArt in MS Word.

I used the following
white CS card base
red checked DP
blue CS card mats
The eye patch is cut freehand from velvet embossed paper and a gold stick on number added.

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:


CREATIVE MOMENTS, #4, ANYTHING GOES
FAB N FUNKY, #148, BIRTHDAYS AND THREE
LITTLE RED WAGON, #160, BOY OH BOY
THE PAPER SHELTER, #91, BIRTHDAYS
