June 24th Summer Buzz Blog Hop

Click on the link above or HERE to see all the details on the blog hop and then just follow a few simple rules and drop your project off so you can be in the running for some fab prizes from LeighSBDesigns!   Another quickie tonight!  Here in south Mississippi we have some spectacular night creatures and heat!  The heat can only be portrayed as soooo hot and humid it  feels like a thick gumbo but not nearly as tasty!   The fireflies we have are truly beautiful to behold here!  I followed one the other night until I fell in a hole :) as it lit its way across the field!  So my next page for my art junk journal is dedicated to the fireflies or lighting bugs as we call them 😼.
The fireflies are a freebie from Scribbles Designs and the hanging lightbulbs are by Oddball Art from CCC#9 You light up my life.  I colored with the Prismacolors and tried to give everything a shine.  I added some white gel pen highlights here and there.  A piece of scrap paper represents the fields.  A few drops of glue to hold it together and we are done!   I hope you will come play along with us HERE at LeighSBDesigns Inspiration Blog where the Summer Buzz Blog Hop is hosted!

    1. Thank you :) They really amaze me! I have tried to get them on video but that only results in more trips down the mole holes!

  5. Fabulous page, did you use kraft paper? It is something I haven’t tried using yet except for journals where I am going to Matt and layer. Although the heat would be too much for me, I would love to see your fireflies in action (without the falling into a hole!). I hope you didn’t damage anything except your pride! x

  7. Fabulous card Nan, I love your fireflies & your description of the heat was funny & spot on, I could feel the heat! Hope you don’t have any more hole encounters although the firefly adventures are probably worth it, can’t miss a magical encounter right LOL!

  8. Hehe! Nope! Gotta follow the magic :) although I was rather hoping for a more Alice type encounter instead of just the bottom of that dang hole! Thanks for dropping in xx

    1. I make my junk journal out of cereal boxes and things like that. I paint them and paper them to fit whatever image or finished project I want to put on them. Thanks :)

  10. Sweet card. I hope you weren't hurt falling into the hole while following the firefly!

    Thanks so much for entering your creation into our Customer Gallery over at the Scribbles Designs Challenge Blog. Sorry it took me so long to come and comment. I'm supposed to be notified when an entry is added but when I was over there today, I realized I'm not receiving some of them. Good luck in the draw.
