Jewelry Color Inspiration Challenge #38

Stacey has challenged us once again. This time with a patriotic flare! Her colors were red, white and blue. And I immediately wanted to do fireworks. I have a couple of stamps that have some 'firework-like' images, so I used those. Here's the inspiration:



Isn't that a fun piece of jewelry? And here's my card:





I wanted to add a red bow, but it didn't work out in the end. Oh well. I thought this card would make a great birthday card for a July fourth baby. The Prisma glitter really adds some sparkle...that stuff is beautiful and pervasive. It will be everywhere for a while.



I'll be back soon with another challenge...





Details: All CTMH



Paper: Holiday Red, Star-Spangled Blue and White Daisy cardstock



Stamps: Say It In Style, With Love, Serendipity



Ink: Holiday Red and Star-Spangled Blue



Other: Prisma glitter, bonding memories glue, foam squares

Great card, Mere. When you said you had fireworks like stamps I knew the images you were going to use. I did a layout last year using those same stamps as fireworks. I'll have to post it sometime.
