well, i finally did the bg in photoshop!
i put a credit for the brushes in the corner... i used one other set but i forgot where i got it.... ah well, here it is!
if you wondering why theyre surrounded by light green, well, for emphasis (my excuse)
and becuase i was afraid to accidently color them, and have to undo everything after about 30 brushstrokes when i notice it! (my reason)

~EDIT~
oh shoot! i forgot to introduce her!
