Three Muses Challenge- Mail Art

The background of this is an actual envelope I designed a while ago to mail a bookmark swap. I added some embellishments and transformed it a bit.
Credits to Scrapbook Flair, Graphics Fairy, Ms Jordan, Trine at Nothing But Freebies and Jessica Sprague, and to Stephanie Shimerda's Postal brush set.
The stamp is from RoyalMail.com and is a actual British postage stamp from a set called Mythical Creatures, issued in 2009.

  6. I love the muted monochrome of this piece. It makes it so cohesive, and the bronzy colored swirl in the lower right hand corner looks so 3D on the monitor. Really beautiful job!
