Christmas Card Club Challenge #8 - Humorous

Hi Crafters,

It's time once again to share my CCC card for this fortnight. It was Valery's turn to choose a theme and she has given us...

HUMOROUS


Now I don't know about you but every time I look at this image it makes me laugh, these funny, chubby dancing soldiers from Stamping Bella are just great. They remind me of watching your older relatives dancing at weddings etc, he, he :o)
I've coloured them with my Promarkers and used a stitched rectangle from Mama Elephant and a stitched scalloped border die for the accent colour. The sentiment came from the same stamp set.

These dancing soldiers are a hoot and very funny...but as I am now one of the older relatives at family functions, I am hoping the younger generation doesn't view me as that...Yikes!!! lol

Great card, Lorraine.
