KWerners Color Challenge #29

This week for Kristina Werner's Color Inspiration #29
these are the colors she chose:
Pumpkin Pie, Pacific Point, Taken with Teal, Elegant Eggplant & Whisper White

I would never, I mean never would have put these colors together before.  When I saw the colors I almost didn't want to do it, but I think a challenge is good for you and it gets you out of your comfort zone.  If you want to play along click here and it will take you to her blog.
I used the All that Glitters stamp set by Flourishes, I think I'm going to use that set for my Christmas cards this year, I just love the ornaments.  
I stamped all three ornaments separately, once in pumpkin pie, taken with teal & elegant eggplant.  I then colored them in with Copic markers that came close to the shades.  After I colored them in I cut them out and put Diamond Glaze over them.  Diamond Glaze dries clear and give it a glass like look.  The bracket looking chipboard was stamped with elegant eggplant (heat set it) stamped again with versamark, added heat n stick powder, heat set, then topped with dazzling diamonds (fine glitter) then heat set again.  When I was done with that, the diamond glaze was just about dry, so I put the ornaments on it, I popped them up with dimmensionals, but dimmensionals will not stick to glitter, so I added glue dots under the dimmesionals and that seemed to work.  Glue dots are pretty tacky and stick to anything.  Pacific point, is a darker blue, so I needed a layer to go over it, I added pumpkin pie, and stamped my sentiment in Adirondack pitch black ink.  Polka Dot ribbon is by May Arts.  I know this isn't the prettiest card I have ever made, but I put a lot of work into it, so I'm showing it lol & it would be a good New Year's card, very bright and festive.

"Happy New Year"
