Winterly Tree Tops Card ~ Color Dare #609

 This week Color Dare is giving you a trickier challenge. You must use ONLY Black and Beige with ONE color of your choice. NO other neutrals...including white. You can use Gold and Metallics.

Make any paper craft you like. when you're ready to join our challenge click here.

With my card you're getting a sneak peek at a stamp set coming up in September. It's beautiful and I know you'll be excited for it to be available. But for now all you get is this peek.

I stamped and colored with pencils. Just a touch of red for the berries and a bit of beige on the heads and wings of the birds. 

Since there isn't a lot of color I decided to go with texture. The vellum has a beautiful look and makes a nice background for the birds. The embossed layer is a nice effect, too.

See below for a list of products I used on this card.
