The trees are embossed in brown onto watercolor paper. I used Almost Amethyst and Sage Shadow reinkers to color the scene. I hope you can see that these trees are just starting to turn green. Because it's still chilly in early spring, I warmed up the card with houndstooth, stamped in craft ink.

This is a gorgeous first breath of spring! I like that out of the box touch and the color of the Houndstooth. Beautiful shading on the watercolor paper, too.

Great card! Love the effect of the tress extending out of the "box". I know I have a hard time thinking out of the box! You've really inpired me to give it a try! Thanks
