For today I am writing on behalf of House of Cards to let y'all know there is a new challenge out this month. Very fitting for us residing North of the equator. But before I reveal the challenge here is my card for today, enjoy!
Tore masking tape and added it to the border. Then applied multiple layers of watercolor in coordination with our challenge. |
House of Cards Challenge for July! This image is so refreshing. |
The cracks were stamped in the same color as the sentiment. They are supposed to represent cracking ice. |

June is rough month for my husband. Lots of travel and a heavy work schedule doesn't allow us to travel as a family. It the coming months that Summer starts for me and I am so looking forward to it..
That should do it for me!! I hope this post entices you to join our challenge this month at House of Cards. I would like to thank you so much for dropping by TheGrandStampede and do hope you will return soon. Until then however, have a great day, take care, and happy crafting..
All the best,
Shawna
