Pirate Skeletons ATC Set

Back with a  set of ATC's.

The set showcases images from the Etsy store Conjurer of Dreams. There is a Facebook group and they have freebies.

The images used are from a set called Pirate Skeletons AI Art Digital Download Set of 4. I got this set several years ago and it has been discontinued but you can find some amazing pirates and skeleton related images in the store.

The details and color for this image set are amazing. 

Mixed media background with Distress Inks, Distress Oxides, Archival Ink and acrylic paint.

Lots of fussy cutting and layering went into this set to obtain the 3D effect.

Hope you like it and are inspired to create.

I would like to enter this set in the following Challenges:

• Conjurer of Dreams: Anything Goes
• Crafty Calendar Challenge - 6th September: Lots Of Layers
• A Perfect Time To Craft Open Challenge: Anything Goes
• Classic Design Challenge #09-2025 Sep/Oct - Anything Goes with Optional Twist: Trees and/or Leaves
