I stamped few leaves in differents colors and embossed them with clear powder and some more in gold.
Than I covered my Fabriano paper with masking tape and sprayed differents colors of ink over it.
I toke off the masking tape and colored little lines with my markers to give a birch effect.
I embellished with feather, leaf and ribbon and added a little cristal.

Diane, this is so far beyond my abilities! How wonderful is your talent, and how great to see you back in the gallery. I've been thinking of you lately. Hope you are moving closer to finding peace. You do just beautiful work!

I was going to scold you for not give the original birch-tree maker credit...so I went back and looked--and it was you! My sister and I have made several birch-tree cards and have received nothing but compliments on them. They're easy and stunning! I don't know what made you do them but thank you, thank you for sharing.

Your birch tree is magnificent and the feather and ribbon are wonderful!

Your card is beautifully made. All your embellishments make this an even more special card. The birch trees are so lovely and bring back good memories of when we lived in northern Minnesota. TYFS
