Yesterday, when I viewed the Limited Supply Challenge on SCS I knew just which President I wanted to honor. Ronald Reagan had a love for jelly beans and it was reported that he always had a jar of them on his oval office desk. Our country was blessed to have him as a leader and I hope we can soon get back to some of the morals and values that he brought to the the office as President. Anyhoo, this is a two parter. The colors and mason jar were inspired from the Inspiration challenge on SCS today, from this picture here: http://ny-image0.etsy.com/il_fullxfull.84989252.jpg I was drawn to the colors which are very much like the palette of this year's SU in-colors. My card will be gifted to my DH for tomorrow's special day - the sentiment is one I use frequently when I give him *just because* kisses. hehehe. And of course I'm gifting him a big quart size mason jar full of jelly bellies!
Thanks for letting me share!

Very cool card - love the bg and the natural feel to it. RR would be proud of this. I read the book Nancy put out with his love letters to her, and he was such a romantic too. This card fits right in with his romantic side too.
