CC507 challenge-Under the Tree--Dessert/Use a Tree
Colors-Cherry Cobbler, Early Expresso, Garden Green
I didn't use the colors named but drew my colors from them. I did add a bit of yellow for light inside my house and an orange beak for the bird. Bird was colored with Copics
The snow on the roof was made with Winsor & Newton chinese white watercolor paint and added Dazzling Diamonds on top.

Nothing says country like red gingham, right Brenda? it is an adorable backdrop to your cozy snow topped cabin with a warm light inviting weary wanderers in for some good ol' country hospitality. Mr. Cardinal is cheerily presiding over the scene adding yet another lovely detail, and those are just the most darling little trees for dessert

A charming country Christmas card, Benzi. The bg gingham DP and cute die cuts make for a warm and cozy scene. The cardinal is beautifully colored and looks so pretty against the pine boughs.

This is sweet, sweet, sweet Brenda!! I love the gingham paper and the gingerbread house. The cardinal watching over and giving the greeting is perfect.
