                                                                        Profile: Hi, I'm Jolanda.  I am retired and quite happy to have the time to pursue my hobbies and principally my cardmaking every day.  Aa an avid stamper, I discovered card challenges and set up my blog site The Inque Spot Studio in 2020 to better participate and share my creativity.  I love combining challenges.  A layout from here, colors from there, and a theme from yonder. It is exciting to see what develops.  I am such a fan!

What fun to be asked to be a guest designer with the Farm Quest Country Christmas Team this month. Cheers.

{AGCC elements: birds, mailbox, snow, trees}
