Things that go pop!!!!!

Or bang or bum.....Hello dear friends: The Less is More has a fun challenge this week, they want to see things that go "Bang or Pop" so it was the perfect chance to use this stamp set that I got a couple of months ago after hunting for it for at least 2 years!!!!! True, true.....it's a Flourishes set called "Patriotism on Parade" and it's fabulous.  When Flourishes closed it's doors a few years back, I was left with a very long wish list of beautiful stamp sets and this one was one of them. By the time I went to buy it, it was gone!! so, I looked everywhere without any luck until I finally found it  on Christine Okken's blog one day when I was checking what she had for sale and, when I saw it I immediately pounce on it. She still has a whole lot of Flourishes images, if you want to get your hands on some, check them out HERE, just click on the "for sale" at the top of her page.  Here is my card.

There are several images, this one comes in a silhouette image too but I love this one where you can see the kids outfits, so sweet and beautiful.  I paired this image with some fabulous fireworks images from The Ton called Pyrotechnics, perfect for Independence Day. I was itching to use this stamp sets together and the Less is More challenge gave me that chance, woo hoo!!

I stamped this image onto a panel of Ninah Solar White card stock with Versafine Onix Black ink and heat embossed it with clear embossing powder, the fireworks were stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed in glitter gold, glitter green and Calypso Coral from SU. 

Here is a close up of them.

I hope you can see the shimmer. Here is a look at the finished inside of my card.

All of this images are from the set.

Thank you for stopping by, until next time, happy stamping.

Hugs from Maria.

This is the stamp set I used.
