Hope House Home for Boys

The cards that I sell here in Chapala and Ajijic, Mexico benefit the dental program for the boys at Hope House in the nearby village of Ixlahuacan. There are close to 30 boys at the home and many of them come to the home having received no dental treatment. If you live here at Lakeside and would like to order a quality, hand crafted card for a special occasion and help me contribute to this worthy cause, please e-mail me at bettyinchapala@yahoo.com Card price is 50 pesos; the entire sales price is donated to Hope House.

Birthday Wishes at Joan's


There is a challenge at Joan's Gardens this week to make a bright and happy birthday card, with a flower. I think pastels can be bright and happy -- hope you do too! The flower stem stamp I've used is from Papertrey Ink's Everyday Button Bits, the grass is from Stubby Stampers, and the sentiment is from Stampin' Up's Fun and Fast Notes. Nestabilities circles and Ribbon Tag Trios were used to cut out the shapes.
