How adorable is this Viking from Birdie Brown? I just love him and wanted to created a fairly realistic scene behind him so I watercolored the sky and water added Stitched Mountain Range Die-namics, and Grassy Fields for him to stand on.

I stamped him with the new Extreme Black hybrid ink and colored him with Copics then popped him up on foam. Some clouds and a sun and it was done!

My second card uses the new In Paris Stamp Set and In Paris Die-namics for a dreamy scene.

I did a little research before starting this card and found an antique post card that inspired me. First I stenciled the background with Mini Cloud Edges Stencil, then I added Our Town Die-namics cut from Grout Gray card stock and added grass cut with Spring Scene Builder Die-namics.

Next I stamped the sentiment and all the images from In Paris, cut them out with the coordinating dies, colored with Copics, and popped them up in the scene.

And there you have it for Day Four of MFT’s January Release Countdown! Thanks so much for stopping by! See you back tomorrow for Day Three!
