The sentiment came with the stamp and I printed them off as one image. I think I used almost every pen in my collection for this one. I wanted to keep it CAS to make the image the focal point of the card.

I chose this image to work with for a couple of reasons. Firstly I love anything to do with Native American peoples and secondly I wanted an image that moves away from the usual pastel themes. I am not sure what sort of birds the feathers came from but I think I can  be allowed a bit of artistic license. When it comes to the pastel colours the pale aqua and the purple are my favourites.

I hope you will be inspired to join our challenge this month. Here is a reminder of the challenge rules and how to enter.
