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.

May God Grant You...

Hi Everyone,
Happy Fat Tuesday! (Which in my house is pretty much any Tuesday...lol!) Well, I don't generally send cards for Mardi Gras, and I'm done making my Valentine's, so it's on to the next holiday, St. Patrick's Day. Woo-hoo for orange and green!
I really like this Sunbeam to Warm You greeting from DRS Designs, because it gives a nod to the religious aspect of this holiday. I know right? It didn't come about because of corned beef and beer. Imagine :)
Anyway, I cut it out using my Long Rectangle nestie and sponged on some orange ink. The background was dry embossed and I added a strip stamped with the Silhouette Clover.
 
 
I stamped, colored and fussy cut my Paddy Bear and added it along with some ribbon and a shamrock button for embellishment.

Well, if you're not done making Valentine's, don't forget to enter our "Love" challenge at the DRS Designs blog!

Have a great day...

Oh how cute Karin. That little Paddy Teddy is adorable, surrounded by his shamrocks and Irish blessing.

Hello Karin, this prayer always makes me happy no matter how often I read it. Your card is like a framable. The teddy is the cutest and the clover leaves look lovely including the one on the bow. Distressing and embossing look so beautiful.
Love,
