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.

A Pastel Christmas


I have a very non-traditional Christmas card this evening. The sketch is from Annabelle Stamps and I have turned it horizontally The colors come from the C.R.A.F.T challenge. Here's the inspiration photo -- you'll see why I wanted to use the glitter!
Guess this will be short and sweet tonight -- have an early morning tomrrow!
Later,
Betty
