My Viking Hero!

 

Jeg har fått helt dilla på denne nydelige die-rammen fra Hero Arts! Har lagd flere kort med den og stemplene fra Mai kit'et, og de kommer snart, må bare blogge denne tøffe lille vikingen først! Han er fra Roberto's Rascals som du kan finne hos C.C.Designs. Jeg var så heldig å kjøpe flere av digi-stemplene før de forsvant, men man kan enda få Roberto's Rascals som gummistempler  :)

I have had SO much fun with this gorgeous window die from Hero Arts! It came in the My monthly Hero May kit, and I've made many cards I'll soon show. But first this supercute tough little viking dude from Roberto's Rascals ♥ You can get him and others through C.C.Designs, I was so lucky to snag a bunch in digistamps, before they quit carrying them, but they still exist in rubber!

I'm really on a roll with the greens and blues!!! Had rummaged through my scrap-room for hours for the previous cards I made, so my desk was full of papers and embellies in lovely bright colors, seemed a shame to put them all away before playing some more with the brighter spectrum of my T.Holtz distress inks! ;)

Techniques: Most often I use Aquarelle paper from Canson Montval (200 g/m coldpressed). I use my Twinkling H2o's and Tim Holtz Distress Ink pads n markers to watercolor and distress image and papers. I used a punchinella for a mask, and my new Tim Holtz® Mini Ink Round Blending Tools. And also the Distress Marker Spritzer! It creates a cool airbrush effect on your project, and also comes in handy to dispel water every-wich-way! Take a look here on You-tube for lots of videos on this handy tool, and here Scrap-Time has a demo from Tim on the mini blending tools.. It's just... AWESOME! No harshly squared lines! :)
