Polar Bear Aurora Borealis

Good Morning Ladies,
Thursday has rolled around again. That means more laundry. What else would I do on Thursday. LOL
I missed Joan's challenge last week. To busy and to tired to do much of anything except work and train dogs. Not a bad week though. And my poor muse got a rest for a change.
Here is a card for you today....
Polar Bear Aurora Borealis I created this card using a polar bear rubber stamp from Magenta. This is a very detailed stamp I have never gotten good results from. This time around I am very pleased. I stamped it on La Blanche paper and archival ink in black. You can purchase the La Blanche paper at http://www.atjoansgardens.com/  I colorized the bears using Tim Holtz distressed inks and range pen nibs you can also get these at Joan's. The poinsettias are rubber stamps from Heartfelt Creations. I stamped them on metallic white card stock and embossed them in silver. These were hand cut and popped. The background paper is from last year's Martha Stewart metallic pad in 12 x 12. For the finishing touch I added silver metallic ribbon. A very pretty card was the results.
Off to laundry...
Happy Scraps,
Mrs. Swandog
