This is gorgeous Em! You really rocked the color challenge. Your night-time photos with the light from the fireworks are amazing. I have a hard time with some night pics (I should really read the manual for my camera some day, lol). I love how full the page is and how you added the little clusters on either side of the banner. The wordbits and journaling look great. Glad your family had such a fun time on July 4th.
Thank you for participating in the July 2013 Color Challenge, Em. It's a great layout using multiple photos accented with the banner and small cluster. Very nice!
