Lindsay Ostrom is a wonderful design artist and the main image and prayer are hers. I added glittery stickles to the feather. I used a lt blue card front and embossed and sponged it before stamping the black feathers for the bg. The ef is weathered paint by darcie, and the feather stamp is just a $1 wood mount from Michael's.

Wow...you made that bkg? It is amazing. I had to keep looking at it because it is so pretty and interesting. Great colors and card design. The stickles really make this an exceptional card.

Great background, but what a really wonderful main panel with the prayer and feather...so perfect for the challenge. I can see the added Stickles, I bet it's even more shimmery in real life.

TERRIFIC card, Mary! Love your bkgrd and what a great feather stamp. Neat Lakota prayer, too. I am forwarding this to my friend Taytankayotankax who is very proud of his Native American heritage and embraces all tribes.
