Sunday Spotlight


Hello my lovely Teddy Bo friends :0)))

Here we are again with the Sunday Spotlight *Yeaaah*. 
Today we showcase the wonderful creations of Katja

 That is what Katja tell us about herself and her creativity:

"I'm Katja, 41 years old and I'm from the Netherlands, Europe. Married to Wilbert for almost 12½ years and we have two daughters.
 I really love making cards. A few years ago I did start making scrap-cards when I was on a crafting weekend with some crafting friends... and haven't stopped since. I love rubber stamps but most of the time I use digital images (digistamps) coloured with copics. Sometimes I try to color with Distress Inks but I find that difficult. I really love the Teddy Bo stamps and I’m honoured to be in the spotlight today!"


For this lovely card Katja used  TEDDYBOBEA_70 
*Stork babies*...


...on this gorgeous creation she used TEDDYBO_013
*I "heart" you*...


...for this wonderful card Katja used TEDDYBOBEA_079
*Cuddles*...


 ...and on this fantastic card she used TEDDYBOBEA_082
*Santa watch*

More wonderful creations by Katja you can admire on her blog 

Many thanks to you Katja for letting us showcase your adorable creations. It was a great pleasure for us!

Thank you for stopping by and I wish you a beary creative week ;0)
