Nordic Village

Photo Details

Poster: susanbri

CCC18APR (SCS April Christmas Card Challenge) = the optional theme is houses or buildings.

IC647 (Inspiration Challenge) = inspiration from the Replacements Ltd. website.

I chose this plate. It made me think of my Crafters Companion Nordic Christmas stamp set.

I watercoloured the image, trying to keep the watercolouring loose and rustic. A simple sentiment, die cutting with a wonky stitched rectangle, a very thin black border, a bit of glitter along the snow lines, and fun foam behind to add dimension.
