4. Place three envelopes of your unflavored gelatin in 1 3/4 cup of cold water mix and bring to a boil
5. Mix in your can of sweetened condensed milk and heat until it comes to a boil, stir constantly to avoid the mixture burning
6. Take your white Jell-O off your heat and let cool for about 15 minutes
7. Pour your white Jell-O over your red Jell-O and set in the fridge for another two hours
8. Using a small pot again, boil 1 3/4 cup of water and mix and three packs of your blue Jell-O until dissolved

You will have some scraps of Jello after you cut out the stars. These could easily be made into a trifle in cute individual cups! Just layer the jello scraps and whipped cream.
