Ahoy Matey! Batten down the hatches!

I had such a blast doing the Pirates of the Caribbean envelope, that I opted to do another pirate theme! This time, Peg Leg I Sing and Captain No Eye Bettie are taking over the seven seas with their great ship, the DeeDee. Oh, and a few cannonballs. 

I'll never let go...

If Forrest Gump is my favorite movie, Titanic is definitely my second favorite. My entire family loves this movie - we can recite it all line for line and my younger sister can even cue every sound effect, ie: "Cal smacks Rose."

My all time favorite scene has to be the scene when Jack and Rose first kiss on the bow of the ship, the last time the Titanic ever saw daylight.

Now, if we were to replace all the characters with cupcakes, call the ship the Cupcanic and use crayons to make a sunset, it looks a lot more delicious.Seriously - you see that whipped frosting for Rose's hair? Yum! And Leo DiCaprio as a cupcake looks so much more yummier (not that he isn't already, but as a cupcake, you can, literally, eat him up!). So, this my friends, was the last time the Cupcanic ever say daylight.

And yes, every time I see a foggy window, I DO make a handprint, thanks for asking.

Yo-ho-ho and a bottle of ...cupcakes?

This is one of my most epic creations. I want to make another one similar to this because I had a blast drawing the scrolls that have the writing on them. The thing is, it's starting to get super busy in the shops now, so I don't have time to get as detailed! And, as much as the blue pen looks fab, I'm leaning more towards pencils now - they are easier to blend. I wish I had taken the time to make the ship look s a bit more realistic, though. 

Does anyone know any other movies where ships are featured prominently in a pirate-type setting? Besides Waterworld? Because Kevin Costner does not make a good cupcake persona...

Especially when he has gills behind his ears.
