Here are two angles of the card. I used the Paris Art Rubber stamps from The Stampsmith. The rubber stamps can be found at The Stampsmith on-line store here.
I colored the sky with distress ink, outlined the lights on the tower with a white gel pen, embossed a few fireworks and added colored prills and mica to the fireworks. I used the following Spellbinders Dies - 2011 Snowflake Pendant, Ovals, Rectangles and Fleur de Lis Rectangles. The background paper started out as a piece of white copy paper which I copied the lyrics to Auld Lang Syne then cut it to the size I wanted. I then crunched the paper then straighten it out and applied distress inks. I stamped some fireworks with distress ink and embossed a few with gold embossing powder. I applied Glossy Perfect Paper Adhesive and Crystal Effects (US Art Quest) for the shimmer. I blinged up my snowflake to look like a swirling firework and added some ribbon. Thanks for stopping by.

I love your card! You did a great job on it. I have seen the tower at night and it is so beautiful, but I haven't seen it with fireworks behind it. Your card make me want to go back to Paris!

This is really gorgeous! I love the blue and gold together. It looks so elegant.
Oh my! You have outdone yourself, Sistah! This is an amazing card, with so many details to make the eye feast at each detail hungrily! I wondered how you did those lights, and then you shared that info - GREAT dimension, Linda! You have such a way with colors and details - like the ribbons on the die and the sentiment layered in colors. Beautiful!
This is so gorgeous. You have managed to incorporate two special places for me personally:- Paris and the hint of Scotland with Auld Lang Syne.
So striking.
