New Challenge at Exploring Cricut

We have a new challenge at Exploring Cricut. You are to show your "Red, White, and Blue to celebrate the 4th of July. Make a card, layout, or papercraft using any cartridge you want! Only requirements are to use a cricut cut. I used the cartridges Rock Princess, Stand and Salute and Independence Day for my layout page. This little firecracker is my youngest granddaughter Peyton. Join us this week with your creation. Below the picture are my directions.
Paper was from my stash . Some leftover when I closed my store. I think it might have been from Adornit, but not certain.
Cardstock is Bazzill
The phrase is cut at 2.25 inches from Rock Princess
Fireworks are cut at 2.5 inches from Stand and Salute
Firecracker is cut at 2.5 inches from Independence Day
Stickles on firecracker and ribbon from stash

I will be entering this into challenges at:
