I made this card for my SIL Alan who loves all Canadian Native art.
I misted my large shipping tag with Memories Mists in Amaretto and Merlot then sprayed it with Glimmer Mist in Tattered Angel. I then used a hair feather stamp by Rubbernecker and embossed it in Pure Gold EP. Sponged the edges with TH DI in Aged Mahogany.
Mounted this onto Bravo Burgandy cs that I had edged with Pure Gold EP.
For the bg I used More Mustard cs and stamped it with a small scattered leaves stamp by? the mounted the whole thing onto Bravo Burgandy.
The embellishment it made of feathers, beads and burgandy colored twine.
