following is not a valid item name

<item name="colorTextGreen">@color/colorTextGreen</item>

you can only use item names that specify an attribute in your xml layout. The value in the element is the value for that attribute.

example 

    <item name="android:background">@color/colorTextGreen</item>

this will be default background color because we set the item name to color for theme.

You can't create items with you own name, in this case you created a colorTextGreen and a colorBackgroundGreen, this is no possible. The item has predefined name, so, you must just use it passing a value.
