Have a Happy Today!




I have great online friends! Really, I do! They are such fun to chat with... and we have the fun of creating together, too!


I'm part of a group that swaps MYSTERIOUSLY every other month. It works like this - someone in the group is the hostess. She sends images (and if she wants to she also sends a little extra something) to the group. We then each create four cards with her images (and extras) plus whatever supplies of our own that we choose to use. We then mail them to her and she swaps them out. We in return get three awesome cards with the same images. Isn't that a fun idea?


Tami was our hostess for the most recent round. Wow! She sent us the CUTEST little girl image. She tells us the image is from The Angel Company, but I'm not sure what set she is from. I know I would love to own it, though! Tami also sent us a little ticket and a small piece of designer paper. It was such a fun assortment.



Here are some pictures of my card:




I added cardtock, a piece of designer paper, buttons, ribbon, and a sentiment on the tag. Oh, and I colored the image, too.









Thank you, Tami! And thanks to all my Mysterious Friends, too!

I you all!

Sunday Challenge

It's time for another Crafty Ho's Challenge

This week's challenge is an INSPIRATION Challenge.


Participants are asked to use the Jelly Bean Prayer as the inspiration for their card/project. Think, Easter, spring, rainbows, jelly beans... etc.


The Jelly Bean Prayer

RED is for the blood he gave.

GREEN is for the grass he made.

YELLOW is for the sun so bright.

ORANGE is for the edge of night.

BLUE is for the sins we made.

WHITE is for the grace he gave.

PURPLE is for his hour of sorrow.

PINK is for our new tomorrow.


A bag full of jelly beans, colorful and sweet,

Is a prayer, is a promise, is a special treat!




I happen to own a Jelly Bean Prayer stamp set (TAC) so I decided to use it for my card. I teamed it with some overall jelly bean designer paper and cut out some little jelly beans from the paper to add to the card.









My favorite part of the card is the cute little bag of jelly beans I created with a clear plastic bag and some jelly bean shaped brads.







Are you up for the challenge? If so, create your card based on the inspiration and post a link on the Crafty Ho's Challenge Blog. I can hardly wait to see what you come up with!
