Creating My Own Background

I rarely get to play in the TOMIC because work interferes with getting a project done. The holiday Monday changed all that! I made my own background using crumpled tissue paper, a doily, glitter Modge Podge and some distress ink. The cardboard behind Edwin and Tilda is recycled from a waffle box. I played around with my Prisma Pencils to color the image. I'm in a bit of a Copic funk right now, so I thought I'd give them another try and I'm really loving them!
I'd like to enter this card in the following challenges:
1. TOMIC #14 - make your own background
2. Allsorts #119 - green and blue

Happy Crafting!
