Hello again! Staying with the evening scenes, I made this card thinking about all the times we went camping with the boys during the summer. However, we don't have fireflies in Colorado. I have only seen them one time in my life and that was when I was in Missouri during the summer. They are so delightful.
I inked the night sky with Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Black Soot Distress Oxide. I speckled it with silver metallic paint.
For this card, I used the Build A Cabin die cut with Light Brown Woodgrain, Barn Red and Sunflower cardstock. The mountains were cut with the Stitched Mountain Borders using Narwal cardstock. The ground was cut with the Stitched Hillside Borders using Noble Fir cardstock. The trees are cut from the Stitched Hillside Backdrop - Portrait using Noble Fir cardstock. The mountains, hills and trees were all touched up and speckled with Black Soot Distress Oxide.
I stamped the critters from the 'Smore The Merrier stamp set. The fireflies are actually ants from the Crazy Antics set. I drew little wings on them, but they are still a little large. For the little trail behind the one firefly, I used the Trails Hot Foil Plate with gold glimmer foil. I used the sentiment from the Love You 'Smore stamp set.
I hope you and your families get the opportunity to enjoy the outdoors this summer. Thanks for stopping by.
Sandy
