Several months ago I posted some cards I had made with a stamp I purchased in Alaska. It was a Hummingbird stamp that has Native Alaskan artwork in it. You can see those cards here if you missed them and would like to see them. I had purchased three stamps from the same company Earth Art International. They are part of their Animal Spirit Stamp line.I really like coloring in these images but it is very, very time consuming and I must be in the right frame of mind when I do so because it is very detailed coloring. Here are two more cards. This time
using the Bear image. These are quite large stamps so I am really challenged on how to use them on cards. But I do love them and hope to find many ways to use them both colored and mono tone. So far I have been trying to use color schemes that are found in traditional Native Alaskan art. These include primarily red, black, white and turquoise.
The third stamp that I have is a moose. Soon I will show some pictures of it. I do have some cards completed just need to edit them.

What a lot of work alright, but oh, I love these Alaskan stamps. My folks lived there for a little while and I got to visit. Ever since then all things Alaskan have appealed greatly to me, and I do love bears (I just wouldn't want to meet one in the woods!)
I'm glad you fought off your impatience long enough to finish this one :)
