March is a time to usher in new things. Afterall, Spring comes in March! So, I have a fun challenge for you. This month we are going to do a Featured Stamper challenge. Who is the featured stamper? Well, YOU are!
This month, you are going to choose the oldest card in your gallery (or at least one on your very first page of uploads)... and you are going to CASE it!
Here is the catch... just like the regular featured stamper challenge, you are going to change at least three things on your card (i.e. different colors, different stamps, different embellishments), but we want to be able to see the subtle changes.
Ok, are you ready for this? I don't have the card anymore...I probably sent it to some poor soul who no doubt wondered what was I thinking!!! I tried to copy the picture from SCS but it wouldn't let me...so before you go any further, you MUST follow this link and view the original card!
Seriously, at the time I probably thought it was good! 
Thanks to all the wonderful stampers on SCS, lots more toys!... I've learned and grown, and I'm happy to show my updated version!
As you can see, I used the same two sets, changing from a "snow" scene, adding in some ground cover and small rocks from Cornish Heritage Farms. It's all colored with Copics, I masked the truck then airbrushed the "forest" floor and sky.The windows of the truck are cut out and filled with Matte Accents by Ranger to look like actual glass. I stamped another pine tree on a scrap piece of cardstock, colored it and airbrushed, then fit it behind the windows (behind the entire card front) so it looks like you're looking right though to the trees behind the truck!
Keyword: DCFSC0309 in the SCS gallery...c'mon, have a look. I think this will be fun!!

WOWSA Dawn, I loved the first card, but when I saw the second card - holy moly! What a difference! You are amazing!
Geez Dawn...this is fantastic...It really looks like it should be put on canvas...are you sure you aren't related to DaVinci??? Truly, wish I could come to your house and play...so you could teach me this technique :)
ya know....if you look back at that first upload, 40 people favorited it.....so couldn't be too bad for those days.....HOWEVAH.....your new one is the work of the colorist queen you have become.....wow
I really liked your first card! Your second though shows just how much you've grown in your ability to colour and create scenes. Brava!
This is so amazing, Dawn. It's like a photograph it's so good!
Well - your first card is a nice card for a beginner stamper!! and your 'now' card is WOW~~~ the forest almost looks like a photo it's so dark and defined!!! love that truck - it always works on a card!! how fun to compare after all these years!!!
