Commissioned Christmas Card with a Pirate Theme????!!!

Hello!

I had a request from a work colleague to make him a Christmas card for his girlfriend using a pirate image! I must admit I was a bit stumped at first but with a few suggestions and tips from some Crafty Buddies I found an image from Simply Betty Stamps - Jack and used this to make the card. Here it is:-

I hope it fits the bill!

I wonder if I'll get any other strange request!!
