Graphicus Challenge

Here is my entry for the January Graphicus Challenge, I chose to just go with the Plum and Gold theme as I couldn't think of anything appropriate to combine the celebration element as well. Finding a plum colour was a challenge in it self as I didn't have anything that had plum in the title so I had a go at making my own from Glimmer Mist sprays. I mixed rum raison and candy apple together to make a "plummy colour". I stamped the Paisley background in Brilliance Gold and then sponged the glimmer mist around the edges. I then went over this with the Brilliance Gold. The main image stamp is from the Fantasy Floral plate. I covered the stamp with the Brilliance Gold and then went over it with the glimmer mist that i painted on with a brush, then stamped as normal. I cut out two of the images and stuck on with silicone glue along with the setiment which is from the Harlequin Rose plate. All the stamps I used are from Elusive Images
