TAKE A HIKE

This is my second unintentional card for the day. This time I was playing around with the cake image over at Color Throwdown #680. I decided to use thin paper and just tear it for the mountain images. I had a hard time gluing the edges because my tape runner just kept pulling up the back of the paper, so I decided to leave well enough alone. 

After gluing the mountains and a die-cut dark green slope to white cardstock, I die-cut a stitched rectangle out through all of the layers, added die-cut trees from Alexandra Renke's "Winter Village" die set, and heat-embossed the sentiment (Simple Stories "Great Escape") with white embossing powder. I glued this to a top-folded white card that I had attached a band of brown wood-patterned paper to. That's it. I was disappointed with the color renditions from my cell phone camera - the dark green looks black.
