I used Cricut's Stretch Your imagination cartridge to cut out the canning jar and the fireflies. I used Plantain School house for the grass. I cut the canning jar out of the clear acetate, then the jar lid out of silver foil paper and roughed it up a little so it would look like one of the old "timey" type lids. I adhered the jar with3d dots, also the fireflies underneath the jar, and in the night skies. the others in grass were just stuck on. I hope you get out this summer and catch some fireflies. Be young again.


And yes always remember to catch and RELEASE those little wonders.

Such a fun card! We got our first sighting of 'lightning bugs' last week! Love them!
Love, love, love this card!! I remember those hot southern summer nights when we caught lightning bugs - I would keep the jar overnight in my bedroom so I could watch the "lightning". Then in the morning I'd take them back outside. Thanks for reminding me of such a great memory.
