The Mystery is Solved!


This card is for a Mystery Swap on SCS. A group of us are doing a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess. This swap was created by Forest Ranger—Jeanette and we are now in our second cycle.   I am the hostess this month and I chose this cute Unity image.   April is the next hostess and I have the images for the next round.  I will swap out the cards later this week and send April's image along with the swapped cards.  Then everyone gets to do it all over again!   

I have loved seeing how everyone has used the same image and how all of the cards are so different.  If you want to see all of the cards that were created, you can check out my gallery in SCS later this week as I will have an album uploaded with all of the mystery image cards.  Here is a link to my gallery on SCS--click here--and it will be called Unity Books a' Flutter Mystery swap.

This definitely has that back to school feel to it. After 30 years of teaching, I came to get that sense in the air as August approaches.

Absolutely, the perfect DP! The colors are perfect for fall back to school. Fun card!

What a yummy color scheme you have going on! (file that away, Darlene!)

The alphabet DP is perfect with this image! Great finishing touches on the inside as well.

Thanks for choosing such a delightful image and sentiment for this round. I can hardly wait to receive my returns!

Blessings!

LOVE the paper! (Of course you would have the perfect paper for this card - LOL!). Great layout - the neat thing is that even though that paper is great and has the large letters - it doesn't overpower your image. Very nice card.
