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.

CAS-ual Friday CFC49

I am playing in the CAS-ual Friday challenge this week; Theresa Momber is the sponsor and is offering three Gina K. Design stamp sets for the lucky winner! It seems as though I love everyone else's CAS cards but mine always look unfinished! Oh well, I decided to take a stab at it again! Here is the sketch:




My card has a butterfly that I printed from an internet clip art site and cut out -- very easy!! The sentiment is from a GKD stamp set, Eclectic Summer Sayings and the caramel panel is embossed with Cuttlebug's Swiss Dots folder. I think I actually like this card. The eye is drawn directly to the butterfly and the sentiment -- the person receiving this card will know immediately why it has been given to them!
