Hello and welcome back, dear crafty friends,
I'm Doris – nicknamed Kleido – and this month I'm your host. But before I begin my actual post for this challenge, I'd like to tell you a little bit about myself today...
My husband and I have been vacationing at Lake Constance every year for almost 20 years. We love this place because we find everything there: mountains, lake, country life, culture, and even a touch of Mediterranean flair. The most famous town here is Überlingen...


Wasserburg, located on the Bavarian side, is also beautiful. From there, you can easily travel to Austria or Switzerland for a day trip. For years, we alternated with Überlingen, which is located on the Baden-Württemberg side of Lake Constance.
Since we especially enjoy hiking, the Lake Constance region – whether in Germany, Switzerland, or Austria – is a true hiking paradise. Whether through numerous orchards, through forests, over the mountains, or simply along the lake... We almost circled it! It's our second home!
My absolute highlight was a Zeppelin flight, which my husband and parents gave me for my 40th birthday three years ago! It went from Friedrichshafen to Meersburg and back again!
Every month we have 2 amazing sketches for you, designed by Kathie, which you can also rotate and/or flip - but we should still be able
to recognise them.
If you still need more inspiration, we have a sketch from our archives, too.
We hope we can inspire you a little with our work and look forward to your participation.

And here is the card I made with it at the time.
And for one of our participants, there is a little surprise and a place as a guest designer to win. So it's worth playing with us!
The challenge is open until 23.55 pm UK time on Tuesday, the 4th of November.
Lovely creative greetings
