Sadly, I don't have a cool birch trunk image but we do however, have real birch trees on the property. The river birches provided big enough chunks of *paper* to make the frame. It's backed with five layers of Soft Suede CS. Have dog, coyote, and wolf, but no fox images. The fox color does show up in the robins' breasts.

Paper: Birch Bark paper from a tree (it's very supple), Dusty Durango base, Soft Suede, naturals white CS
Ink: Memories Black, sponged, aqua-painted or markers: Daffodil, Tangerine Tango, Really Rust, Soft Suede, Going Gray, Bashful Blue, Old Olive
Accessories: CB Forest Branches embossing folder, Cuttlebug Damask Frame die-cut, bark *paper* from a birch tree
Techniques: cut a piece of 4.25 by 5.5 inch Soft Suede CS, cover it with adhesive and adhere the birch paper to that before die-cutting it. Otherwise it's too fragile

Oh wow, Peg, that image is not only beautifully colored but so appropriate with your design. Love the die and the birch borders. You're on a roll, girl. Keep 'em coming.
