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.

Autumn Themed Cards

 
Hi Everyone,
 
I have a couple of card shares for you.  Today begins DRS Designs sponsorship of the color challenge at The Play Date Cafe.  You have the chance to win a voucher for $10.00 off you next purchase!   Here is the color palette photo:
 
 
And this is my card made with a sneak peek of couple of new stamps that will be released on Saturday!
 
 
Thanksgiving Blessings and the Long Tall Wheat stamp are new and I used the Script Font Background on the base.  That's available right now :)
 
Other Challenges for this card:
Can You Dig It?-Give Thanks
Cards and More-Fall or Halloween
Twist of Faith-Fall w/inspirational greeting
 
 
Due to the Halloween holiday, DRS Designs is extending the Autumn Greetings challenge an extra week.  Here is my card that I made for that challenge using the Large Scarecrow stamp and Scarecrows and Corn Rows greeting.
 
 
I hope you get a chance to play along in one or both! 
 
Happy November :)
