Month Two: Shabby & Vintage

This challenge idea was the brain child of co-owner Mynnette--she wanted to have a reason to practice different card making styles and so the purpose of this challenge is to encourage YOU to branch out and try different card making styles along with her and the fabulous DT we've got here!  We hope that you will learn a lot and that you will participate with us each week here and practice your card making talents.  :)

Not sure what we're looking for and want some clarification on what constitutes each style we feature here at HOC?  Help is at hand with our useful DEFINITIONS OF STYLES TAB.  Each style is explained and there are also examples of cards using each style.  Please do check it out!

Now, onto our August challenge!  This month we will be working with this fabulous sketch layout.  Feel free to rotate the sketch and/or use different shapes - as long as the original sketch comes through to us, it's all good!

And this week we'd like to see
