A quick before-work post for The Paper Players Challenge #300~Clean and Simple Celebration. Three hundred challenges is an AMAZING milestone!!
Fireworks stamps I don't have, so I went with what came closest (well, in my mind they did *grin*): my Clearly Besotted Sunburst (sun bursts = fire bursts in some fashion, right?). I based my colours on those in the inspiration photo: blues, purples, and whispers of black and gold. My layout was
was inspired by CAS(E) this Sketch #177.
