BC-83: Torn Firecracker Frame

I haven't had an opportunity to play in a Blogger's Challenge for a long time, so I was thrilled to be able to jump in this week.

The challenge was to use Black, Red, Kiwi and White in our creations. The poppy and saying stamps are from Firecracker Designs by Pamela. That panel is on a Torn Frame, a technique from the December 2008 issue of the Technique Junkie Newsletter.



The black Stampin' Up! paisley background was stamped with VersaMark then brushed with Pearl Ex to give it some shimmer.
It feels good to be back!
