I do occasionally buy googlie eyes, but they tend to start yellowing and falling apart before I finish the pack. So I went with simple big eyes, and while I thought first of the Crazy Birds, I ended up using these frogs from Katzelkraft to make an anniversary card for DH.
The fireworks are Lawn Fawn dies cut in a background sponged with blue distress inks and spattered with gold Twinkling H2Os. Ibufgrd different colours of wax around each firework. The foreground is sponged with green and torn. I think the toadstools is Elizabeth Craft. This is a chibitronics card, so when you press on the toadstool the fireworks light up.
I used the shadowbox frame card tutorial (Shadowbox Frame Card Tutorials at Splitcoaststampers ), adapting it to fit my card size. The front is a stencilled monoprint from my stash matted on silver glitter paper and with a sentiment also from Katzelkraft.

The lights really add a lot to the card, but the eyes on the frogs steal the show!!!
