Since I worked today, I had to wait until tonight to post a message on the blog. Did you notice the really colorful 4th of July template I found to change the look of my blog? Speaking of colorful, I'm really looking forward to seeing fireworks tonight. When my kids were young, I would always take them to see fireworks and I enjoyed it just as much myself! Kind of like card embellishments, they embellish the night sky with beautiful colors, sparkle and glitter, and then after a few seconds, disappear. I made this card, starting with a creamy caramel cardstock base, cutting the 8.5 x 11 paper lengthwise to make use of the patriotic words. I tied some shiny red elastic cord around the fold of the card. I used brush markers in red and blue to color the fireworks stamp and added adhesive rhinestones to the centers. The blue backing paper is DCWV blue metallic textured paper. A simple card, but it gets the point across, I think. Now go and enjoy some fireworks---it's almost dark !!
