July STARS and STRIPES by Debbie

Design team member Debbie has submitted this for our July STARS and STRIPES Challenge:

Hi there,
Living in Southern Arizona during the 4th of July can be very hot. We don't go out and see the fireworks very often because it's usually too miserable. Once in awhile we try to sneak away and go to a cooler climate for our anniversary which is July 1st. In 1998, we were in San Diego, CA for the 4th, and I had these photos from our trip. I tried to use different shades of red,white and blue that aren't your typical patriotic color scheme. I added black into the mix to help make the firework photos pop.














Now it's your turn to play! Go here for details :)

  6. I remember being in California many years ago and although I cannot remember which city I was in, the BEST fireworks happened while I was there and this brought back a great memory for me :) Awesome lo!
