Welcome!

My name, Karin, was pretty common when I was growing up...just not the spelling. Unless you are of German heritage like I am. So, I have spent my entire life answering the question, "What is your name"?... With, "Karin...with an "i"! Who knew it would come in handy all these years later when I went to name my blog.

Bailey

Hi Everyone,

This week Hambo Stamps is the sponsor over at Send a Smile 4 Kids.  They are a challenge blog that collects cards for ill children in order to brighten their day.  The challenge this week at the Hambo Hoedown is Anything Goes. How easy is that?  I hope that this simple challenge will motivate you to join us and make a cheerful card for a child in need.

This week I used some bright Basic Grey  papers that I've had forever, I thought they would be just the thing on a card for kids and the new Bailey stamp looks like he belongs.  Isn't he cute with the Stickles I added to the heart on his neck?


Be sure to check out Send a Smile 4 Kids, it's a worthy cause and you can link up your card at the Hambo Hoedown here. 

As a reminder, today is the last day to apply for the design team at Hambo Stamps.  And if you want to be a participant in the "Green Eggs and...Hambo Blog Hop, today is the deadline to sign up for that too.  Details can be found by clicking here

Have a great day!

How kind of you, Karin with an i and I do think your card is super super nice. I love the dog and the papers are out of this world.

I have been thinking for a long time to send cards to them. Even wrote to them but never got down to it as I always need them to sell as well. One day I will. Thanks for the reminder.

Also thanks for all your loving visits and kind comments. Means the world to me.

Hugs,

Monica

The colors in your card are so deep and luscious, yet perky to keep your Bailey company - looks like a floral garden he has gotten into, with a polkadot sky! So cute with the attention to layers and details, Karin!
