I used an actual piece of birchbark. I stamped the image directly upon it and used Prismas for some shading. The birchbark has so many beautiful shades within it already, so I didn't do a whole lot. The card opens like a flap up.
Thanks for looking!!!

Wow, Deb, absolutely gorgeous. Love the stamping on the birch bark...you're right...the colors of the piece are so beautiful it really didn't need much. Nice accents with the bg stamp and distressing.
