Ornament Keepsake Christmas - Challenge 191 LNS

The challenge this week with the Late Night Stampers group is "Dots and Stripes" i.e. create a card, scrapbook page, 3D project or anything else that incorporates dots and stripes.
This is my card:
Technique:
The base card is Old Olive matted with Very Vanilla.  The striped designer paper is from the Merry Moments Simply Scrappin' kit.
The ornaments were stamped with Raspberry Ripple, and then die cut with the Ornament collection framelit.  Each ornament was then covered with Versa Mark, heat and stick powder applied and after heating with an embossing tool, they were covered with dazzling diamonds and heat set.  The Ornaments have dots on them.
A piece of White Baker's twine was attached to the back top of  each ornament with a glue dot and the string attached to the back of a Very Vanilla panel embossed with a polka dot folder. The ornaments were attached with dimensionals at different levels, slightly overlapping each other.  A small ribbon of 1/8" Old Olive taffeta ribbon was attached to the top of each ornament.
This panel was matted with Old Olive card stock.
A piece of scalloped dotted Old Olive ribbon was attached on the lower 1/3 of the designer paper.  The panel was then attached to the front of the card using dimensionals.
