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.

Cards and Halloween

Hi Everyone,

It's been a crazy busy week, so unsure of whether I'd be able to find time to make a fall card, I thought I'd show off the anniversary card I was able to make for my hubby.  
I always beat him at cards, so I came up with this pun, which I cut using my alphabet dies.
  I stamped and die cut the 5 Cards stamp and created the bottom of the card using the
 4 in 1 Poker Suits stamp and coloring in the hearts and diamonds. 

I added a strip of gems and pearls along with a punched heart and photo corner.  


For the inside I used the Happy Anniversary portion from the Love is More Precious Greeting and the 
4 in 1 Poker Suits again in the corner.


However, I remembered making this Christmas card when I was in a time crunch, so I started with that simple idea and was able to squeeze in making this easy Halloween card. 

I was starting with an orange base, so I added some orange water coloring to the bottom corner of my white paper, dry embossing it after it had dried.  I glued on my die cut cat and added the 
Purrfect Halloween Greeting that was die cut and embellished with ink to match. 


The bottom corner was blank and needed to be balanced out, so I added the Broom that had been colored and fussy cut.

If you're making fall and holiday cards, be sure to visit the DRS Designs store.  For a limited time shipping is free on purchases over $25.00!

Have a great day!
Karin
