  Hi Pat, I'm glad you enjoyed the eagle card.  Here's a quick overview how I made it.  I first stamped the eagle in chocolate chip and then embossed with clear embossing powder. I used the coordinating marker and a blender pen to color in the eagle a bit more.   I then extended the branch with chocolate chip marker and added some highlighting to the branch using early expresso and crumb cake markers.  I went over the whole image again with veramarker and clear embossed it again.  I sponged the background starting with bashful blue, and then marina mist, with a hint of pretty in pink.  I stamped the trees in the background with brocade blue using a mask to control the size of the trees and I stamped the spruce trees in the front with baja breeze.  I hope that helps you and would love to see something you create using this stamp.  Like you I've had this set around for a few months and had not used the eagle yet and wanted to try something in a scene scape format.
