Here we are in the first week of August and Summer is in full swing. Diane is our host for this two week challenge and she found lovely pictures of mason jars. Boy does that bring back old memories. My mom did a lot of canning and I did too. Not as much or as long as she did. I liked the more modern idea of going to the grocery store. Lol
They are all so pretty, but I wanted to use a die that I had never used before.
Actually, I used a lot of stamps and dies on this one.
My card is below.
This is it!
I caught lightning bugs but never a fairy to keep in a jar.
Here are the supplies:
Gina K Designs Buds and Vases
Magnificent Mini Faires die
Altenew, Adore You stamp
Quilted stencil from Kaiser Craft Kat Scrapiness Slimline dies
The prize for a random winner
Our design team is the best and I am sure that you will get some inspiration Here
Thanks for stopping by and I always appreciate your comments!
Delightful! Those pretty fairies look happy to be flitting around in the mason jar. Love your gorgeous flower topper and the dimension on this.
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet Barb! I used to catch fireflies too in my youth. Aaahhh the good ole' days when children played outside until sundown. How magical to think we could have been catching fairies. This is delightful!
ReplyDeleteThis is so sweet. We used to catch fireflies (or lightning bugs) as we used to call them but was never lucky enough to catch a fairy. lol
ReplyDeleteOoooh how Magical! I love how you added the sweet fairies and that fabulous looking background! Topped with a very pretty flower. Penny would be chasing them all over the yard lol She comes soon and I already saved a jar to try and catch a few fireflies, I'll show her your beautiful card and I know she'll want to hunt for fairies too!
ReplyDeleteOH WOW this is so cool! Yep we spent many summer nights catching lightening bugs in a mason jar in my growing up years. But like you, never did catch that elusive fairy lol. Beautiful inspiration my friend! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteOh Barb! This reminds me of my childhood! Love the replacement of a fairy instead of a lightning bug! Great slimline card! Love the subtle background too!
ReplyDeleteLove the little fairies in a jar and sponging a little light around them was genius. Cute, cute card.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful jar of fairies! A lovely design and I think the lightening bugs were really fairies in disguise!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable card. I used to catch fireflies too. So much fun on a sultry summer evening! I love your little fairies, they are a perfect take on the Mood Board. Super sweet!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow lucky to catch fairies in the jar! They must have been after the lovely flower at top of the jar. Love the background you used, it looks like it is quilted. Lovely card.
