Viking

The February Crafty Calendar Challenge begins today with the theme 'Add Ribbon'.  Our generous sponsor this month is Paper Nest Dolls.


Our sponsor kindly gave the DT digi stamps to work with and I chose Viking Andrew from the Viking Bundle Set.  I coloured the image with Promarkers and used Sizzix Thinlits 'Stitched Ovals' for matting and layering.  The background was embossed with a Darice 'Wood Grain' embossing folder and layered on a silver mirror card mat.  I put a strip of cream twill ribbon across the bottom and added a sentiment and two silver Card Candi.

The Crafty Calendar Challenge ends on 28th February, so please pop over to the challenge blog and see the wonderful cards the DT have made for inspiration.

I am joining in the following challenges:

  13. I don't know if Vikings should look adorable, Liz, but your guy certainly is cute, in spite of his giant axe! I love how you showcased him in the oval frame, the look of the sediment banner, and the great matting! Thank you for inspiring everyone at NBUS! Hugs, Darnell
