Plum and Gold

Loved the idea of Plum and Gold Glenda.
I first made some plumy colours with my H20's which I brushed and stippled onto some card and then with Egyptian gold I stippled over the top. I stamped the main image and embossed it in gold then stamped the words Celebrate and embossed them. I then decorated with beads and gems.

Using H20's I mixed three colours to make some plummy shades I painted these on to glossy card in a diagonal pattern and highlighted with gold.
For my backing paper I again used the Egyptian gold for the wash, then stamped with a brilliance pad and embossed with clear powder.

To finish off I twisted some gold wire and added a tassel.
