Stampin' Celebration Fireworks

It's July 1st.  Happy Canada Day to all my Canadian friends!


The 4th of July is only a few days away and the skies in SouthWest Washington will be filling with awesome displays of fireworks.  In Thurston County, where I live, it also means that you need to bring your own bag to the store or pay a premium for those cheap plastic bags that used to be free.   In stamping land it means that it is time for a new challenge at Stampin' Celebration.  That's what you are here for, right?

With it only be a few days away from our nation's Independence Day celebrations, I just had to use the fireworks photo as my inspiration.  Of course that picture of the smores has me wanting to roast some marshmallows in our firepit soon.  Here is the card I came up with using the sun from Kinda Eclectic as my firework.


Each burst was embossed with a different color embossing powder, then I took one of the stamps from Gorgeous Grunge and embossed it with Iridescent Ice embossing powder to give it a little sparkle.   

Which photo will you choose as your inspiration?   Don't forget to check out what the rest of the design team came up with, then make your own project to enter.

Believe this is my favorite so far! Love the colors and the fireworks. Did you just stamp the fireworks or do they have embossing powder on them. Frankly, Im having trouble seeing right now. :)
