To God who gives our daily bread
A thankful song we raise,
And pray that he who sends us food
May fill our hearts with praise.
Thomas Tallis (1505-1585)
Welcome to the first Crafters of Faith Blog Hop! We are so blessed to have you stop by and celebrate the beauty of AUTUMN with us! The Crafters of Faith blogging group is a joyous blending of christian friends ~ joined together to fellowship, share our faith, build friendships and craft together! If you are just visiting and would like to hop with us, welcome! If you hopping along already, you should have arrived from Barb's blog.
This month, our hostess is Carol S! She gave us a wonderful Harvest challenge and here is what she asked us to create: "I love FALL, the colors and the smells! I would like to propose that we make a card with fall colors, it should include fruits and vegetables to remind us of the harvest. When my kids were small, I canned peaches and pears, made pickles and such. So much fun to open those jars in the dead of winter! I am looking so forward to the fall festival of Sukkoth (Feast of Tabernacles). To Biblical historians, this is the actual time of Christ's Birth and many people believe this will also be the season of HIS return. Blessings All!"
So, we are showing off our projects this month through a hop and here is the order. I hope you can stop and visit each of these special ladies!

To celebrate in this glorious season upon us, here is the card I created for you!
I admit to having no details, because everything was shopped from my scraps - the main immie is Studio g and the sentiment is Amuse.
From here, continuing hopping to Kelly's blog to see what Autumn splendor she has waiting for you! We also have a special little giveaway for one lucky hopper today and you can find that on Kelly's blog - the last stop on the hop!

Your mojo was gone? I don't believe it! You always have such amazing cards and fun ideas and this one is no exception! I'm glad your mojo could be rejuvinated (I still don't believe it was gone though, maybe it was just out camping). Lovely, lovely card, April! I adore the cornucopia! Hugs and blessing to you, my sweet friend. Thank you for the blessing of your friendship. kadie
