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.

Why Do Balloons Cost So Much?

Hi Everyone,

The Hambo Hoedown is back to having weekly challenges, and this week we're using this funny balloon sentiment and the challenge of 2 different sized circles on our cards.  Ready for it?


I embossed my circles with a circle embossing folder, but other than that, it's embellishment free.  It's a different card than my usual style, but I love the clean look and easy to mail factor :)  We would love it if you played along with us here.

Also, the design team call is still going on, so now is the time to submit to become a Bacon Bit.  Ha!  That rhymes :) 

One more thing. We are hosting a Customer inclusive Blog Hop: "Green Eggs and ..... Hambo!" on Friday, January 27, and would love to have you join us! Email Judy at hambodesignteam@gmail.com if you would like to participate. It's all about Hambo images and book titles :)  Deadline to sign up is January 18.


Have a great day!

Details not listed above-Paper: Georgia Pacific White, Punches: EK Success, Nesties.
