For my blog hop creation I used the newly released Bart's BBQ by Crissy Armstrong along with the new Good Life Tickets by Ann Vento of Raindrop Echo Designs. I painted Bart in distress inks and the papers are October Afternoon. I left this super simple and flat so I can pop it in the mail with no dilemmas.
