We don’t celebrate Guy Fawkes here but I still wanted to go with the Fireworks theme so I thought I would make a Happy New Year card :-)

For the background I used plain dark blue card and sprayed with Tawny Turquoise spray from Lindy’s Stamp Gang, so shimmery IRL.  I used a Hero Arts Fireworks stamp and silver glitter embossing powder to light up the sky and added a few crystal gems for stars in there too :-)  The London skyline was a design for the Silhouette Cameo and I added some little windows, a gear, also cut on the Sihouette with 2013 in the middle. I made the  Happy New Year sentiment using a Simon Says Stamp ‘oh Happy day’ die,a Sizzix Typeset Alphabet die and lots of crystal glitter :-)
