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.

St. Patrick's Day and Spring

  Hi Everyone,

I'm celebrating St. Patrick's Day and the imminent arrival of Springtime and the Easter holiday with my cards today.

This card has a shamrock background that was stamped using the Shamrock of Shamrocks stamp.  
I chose the Irish Blessing for a greeting and added the tiny Mushroom House because I thought it  matched the words in the sentiment.  I anchored it with a strip of white paper tied with a green ribbon and finished it off with a few gems.



New stamps have arrived for spring and Easter and I was so looking forward to stamping with this adorable Tails Up Bunny stamp!  Isn't it the cutest??!  

I stamped and colored them up, using some glue and flock on the tails to make them soft.  I punched them out and made the background while they dried.  

I used the Woven Plaid stamp, which was cut apart, so that I could stamp in multiple colors.  I used 2 kinds of pink, green and brown.  The embossed strip was layered onto a lace border and attached that to the background along with the bunnies.  The Happy Tails to You Greeting was a natural fit, and I added a die cut butterfly and pink gems for embellishment. 


And here is a peek at the simply stamped inside. 

Stamped used are;


I'm so excited for you to see all of the new stamps! The design team will be posting their cards, but you can see all of the stamps now, by clicking over to DRS Designs!

Happy stamping, happy spring!  Happy happy everything!

Karin
