Would you believe this card stamped with Betsy's Blossoms and embossed in gold started out to be just one more 4th of July card in red, white, and blue?  There is something so compelling about Betsy's Blossoms…even though I would say I don't "love" it…..I've got to use it!  I thought for the day after July 4th, I could get by with trying this big blossom as a firework stamped in red and blue….then I thought "how about a gold cardstock layer?"….then looking at that I thought "what about embossing some gold on the Whisper White card front?"…. then I thought "what if I embossed the gold card stock for the card front with all gold blossoms as fireworks?"….and after I did that and added the rhinestone bling, I no longer liked it on the red card base and thought it actually looked pretty/elegant. So then I mounted it on Soft Suede card stock and added a gold embossed greeting from Teeny Tiny Wishes with a little ruffled ribbon behind it…and there you have it….one more fireworks card….that probably isn't!
