Pirate Adventure

Hello again.  What fantastic weather we have been having this week. With that thought in mind I thought i'd share a card I made for a little boy who loves playing pirates.  Initially when I was asked to make a card with a pirate on it, I thought 'oh'. Then I was walking around a local shop and they were selling off party bags and blowers, the boys were pirates and then this idea came to me
.

On the long side, cut down from 7 cm, 14cm and 21cm from the top to the center score line, repeat the same down the 28cm score line. Remove the left over piece (top half) completely
