When the element is subjected to flame, the electrons are in a high energy state. When they come back down to a stable state energy is released in the form of light. The color emitted depends on the amount of energy released.
The different colors of the light emitted are caused by the different quantities of electrons losing energy in different elements.

When were colored light bulbs invented?
In the timeline of history? About 30 seconds after clear light bulbs. The idea was a natural, and arose almost immediately. Edison was offering short (8 bulb) strings of colored lights for "celebrations" (Christmas was the obvious target) before the turn of the 20th century. They were horrendously expensive - the equivalent, in the dollars of that time, of about $350 for an 8 light set. Christmas tree lights today are one of the cheapest expenses in decorating for Christmas - but that didn't happen until after World War II. Even in 1940, a string or strings of colored lights to decorate a 6' tree ran about $15 - today's equivalent of $240.00
