Hello Crafty Friends! Laurie here again! I am sharing My Viking Love Valentine Card using the Brave Vikings Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! My Hubby loves history and especially Vikings! He even has a Viking outfit with sword tor Society for Creative Anachronisms events. So, it was a given that I would get this stamp set as soon as I saw it.

The Details of My Card

For my card, I decided to use the Pattern Party Designer Series Paper that you can get for free with a qualifying hostess party. This paper is awesome! It has so many patterns for different occasions and seasons, and you get 48 sheets (4 each of 12 double-sided designs)! The colourful hearts are perfect for a Valentine card and the diagonal stripe paper matches those colours perfectly!

I used the Heart Punch Pack to punch out my DSP and matching scallop hearts. The little Poppy Parade stitched hearts are from the Give It a Whirl Dies. I scattered the hearts willy-nilly to mirror to the whimsey of the Stitched with Whimsey Die on the Basic White. 

Once I stamped the Viking girl in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink, I pulled out my Stampin’ Blends to colour her using the colours pulled from the DSP. I then fussy cut her out. I placed her on the card so that she is pointing at the sentiment like she is saying the words. A scattering of Red Rhinestone Basic Jewels adds a bit of sparkle to the card.
