You Light Up My Life!

Here is a cute card I made for my husband using the Jar of Love stamp set. I wanted to show how special he is to me but in a less floral way. He enjoys puns, so this stamp set is perfect! Plus, I got to use one of my favorite stamp sets from the 2016-2017 Annual Catalog!

The background is sponged from the bottom to the top with Tempting Turquoise, Island Indigo, and Night of Navy, respectively. The stars are little circles drawn with a white gel pen. The grass was created using Garden Green cardstock and the Fringe Scissors to act as a base or grounding element for the jar.

The fireflies are stamped in Archival Basic Black ink, die cut, and attached with 1/2 of a dimensional. I didn't want the light from the fireflies to disappear into the sky, so I stamped the circle image on Whisper White cardstock with Daffodil Delight ink. Then I punched the circles with 1/4" handheld circle punch. Each circle is attached with a mini glue dot underneath the firefly.

I stamped the smallest jar image in Archival Basic Black ink on vellum. The jar is attached to the grass using mini glue dots only underneath the inked outline. A linen bow finishes the jar.

The inside has more fireflies and the sentiment You Light Up My Life. This is such a sweet card to give someone special in your life. I hope you give this card a try!

Thanks for stopping by!
