This is for the High Hopes Challenge 22... we had to NOT use any dp or patterned paper on our project! I made the dp myself! Its so easy, I just swiped four different brown dye inks across white glossy cs, and sanded the edges. On the large bg panel I went over it again after sanding it so there was no white.
Colored the three stamped images using Copics. I made the scene using masking to fit the three elements in. I cut across the top of it and popped it up on the blue panel.
These are the potm for March at High Hopes.

You're killing me with these creations, Crissy! I cant believe you've created the dp and such a fantastic scene. I must admit, I closely scrutinize your cards because I'm totally in awe of where your talents take you. this is positively remarkable. it's just extraordinary, that's what this is!

I'm very impressed with your homemade dp - fantastic job! Love that image and the coloring as well! I've got the farmer on order and I'm thinking I had better have that bg farm stamp as well. My next order has started! TFS and this card looks fantastic!
