Friendship Blog Hop

Yesterday I did the Friendship Blog Hop. It was hosted by Alex at youhadmeatcraft.com Check out this site if you want to see a lot of gorgeous friendship projects.  At the end of the blog hop, hoppers go back to the first site and post a card with a link to thier site.  Then you look at the other cards to meet new blog friends.  Well here is my card.  I made it to give to a new friend who invited us to an event last night.  It is hard to see the paper.  On the green lines it says "joy smiles happy friendship.  I got this pad at Walmart.  It is a candy bar holder.  I made it longer that I usually do so I could fit in three rows of sentiment
