LIGHTING THE WAY
Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Pool Party cardstock, scored at 5-1/2 and folded.
- Two 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strips of Earthen Elegance DSP were added to each side on the front.
- The 3 x 5-1/4 piece of Basic White was stamped across the top with the tree branches several times in Garden Green and Lemon Lime Twist Inks.
- The top of the background was sponged with Pool Party Ink around the leaves.
- Another branch was stamped with Garden Green Ink on Lemon Lime Twist cardstock and cut with the Lighting the Way Dies. It was added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The lantern was cut from Copper Clay cardstock and trimmed along the bottom and top to make it shorter. It was put in place temporarily, then the light dot stamped with Daffodil Delight Ink and sponged around with Lemon Lolly Ink for the glow. The lantern was added with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Some Linen Thread was tied thru the handle of the lantern and around the branch, then tied in a bow.
- The small flower from Petal Park Builder Punch was punched from Lemon Lolly cardstock and colored in the center with Daffodil Delight Blends. It was added with Stampin’ Dimensionals. A yellow In Color Glossy Dot was added to the center.
- The firefly was stamped with Memento Black Ink and colored with Daffodil Delight Blends.
- The greeting was stamped along the bottom with Garden Green Ink. Then the Basic White panel added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

This is a beautiful summer card. I was just noticing how the fireflies (we call them lightning bugs) are out now in Oklahoma. Very pretty!
We call them both fireflies or lightning bugs here in Ohio, too! Glad you liked my card!
