My card is for Barbara's Hope You Can Cling To challenge today, to use the backs of our clear stamps to create our cards. I used a set I designed that has some house parts in it, and some small house die cuts from Impression Obsession to make 3 little houses. I used my MISTI to get the placement right on the pieces. I added shading with Distress markers and a brown pencil. I love this sentiment (inspired by one of my favorite Billy Joel songs) and hope it connects with someone who might be feeling displaced by circumstances but at home with their loved ones close by.

I thought about doing houses but don't have the detail die cuts and my artistic ability to draw on the windows and doors etc. is non-existent! Very nice card.
