This card started off with the inspiration photo at the Mama Elephant and Me challenge. However I'm sure you can tell it kind of took off in a brighter direction quickly. I started with the idea of the tops of the boxes in the photo look like the fireworks from the Mama Elephant Around We Go set. While I was at the Mama Elephant event in NYC they showed us how to use Hero Arts daubers to add color to the fireworks and I wanted to make use of that technique. However I'm cheap and so I use bingo markers from the dollar store. For more on how this card came together check out my video below.
