The Craft Barn Dictionary Challenge -- X

This time on the Craft Barn Dictionary Challenge it's the dreaded X
For the tag entry I have coloured the background with distress inks and used the word Xebec which is a Mediterranean three masted vessel, used initially by Algerian pirates. They were eventually used for commerce.

You are not just a pretty face! I have never heard of a zebec but what a beautiful tag design it has made. X would have had me stuck with the common or garden Xmas tree.

Yep wasn't easy finding the elusive X that could be illustrated! (making note of yours for future use...). Lovely tag.

I always learn something new each time I visit. The Xebec is a new one on me, but your illustration is so well done, and fits your tag perfectly.
