Color Throwdown #519 using SSS Ornate Ornaments

Happy Wednesday!

I am so excited for todays post since I am the 

Guest Star Stamper for this weeks Color Throwdown Challenge #519

I was so excited to see that the colors this week were Red, Aqua and Silver. 

I really wanted to use the Simon Says Stamp Ornate Ornaments Stamp set but didn't know how to make the tree work since no green. 

I then thought of those old school Aluminum Christmas trees and how would be a great backdrop for some colorful ornaments.

The tree branch comes from the Sunny Studios Holiday Style stamp set and was heat embossed with Ranger Silver Embossing Powder. 

I heat embossed the ornaments onto some Bristol Smooth card stock and colored the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers.

I used:

Geranium Red

Light Pink

Turquoise Green

Light Blue

Light Gray

I fussy cut the images and attached with Gina K Connect Glue. 

The sentiment is also from the SSS Ornate Ornaments set and heat embossed in silver.

 I used the light gray marker to add a slight shadow since I thought at first looked a tad flat. 

I popped the panel onto the red card base using the SSS Big Momma Foam tape to add just a little dimension. 

Thank you so much for visiting and please go visit the Color Throwdown site to see all of the other beautiful creations and I hope to see yours submitted!
