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.

Beach Babe

Hi Everyone,
 
Can you tell I'm ready for summer?  I'm totally by passing spring and heading for the middle of July with today's card...lol! Unless you're one of the lucky few who live in the south and see this type of weather on a regular basis.  Know that I sure do envy you!
 
Anyway, I was recently stamping with the stamp set Beach Babes (#473).  It's full of cute, no SUPER cute gals frolicking at the beach and just enjoying sunshine in general.  I made this card with this month's challenge at the Sparkle N Sprinkle Challenge Blog in mind.  It was an easy one...Anything Goes with Glitter!
 
 
I used Dimensional Glue (#539) and Sparkling Snow glitter (#G1003) to highlight the waves on my dry embossed background and colored this adorable gal with my Copic markers.
 
 
 
 
All of the specific card details can be found in my gallery right here, and I hope to see your glittery card entered over at the challenge blog! Also, next week is our next blog hop, so mark your calenders for that.  The team has been hard at work getting ready to inspire you with their favorite techniques!  You won't want to miss out :)
May your day be warm and sunny!

Hi Karin,

Oh how pretty is she and her smile is cute. Super coloring there. The ribbon and charm look super. Love the way you created water. That doily looks so unusual.
Love,
