Sunday Spotlight on Katie!! (ktkadoo)
Hello everyone! I hope you are having a wonderful Sunday, where ever you may be in the world! 
It’s me, Tami, with another AMAZING Team Member to spotlight! Today I chose Katie (ktkadoo), cause WOW! She’s got some GREAT LO’s!!! And I just have to say she was soooo sweet to agree to let me spotlight her! I just contacted her yesterday and she got back to me in record time! I’ve been gone for almost two weeks so I was under the gun to get some info on her and she was so great to comply, even last minute!! :) Anyhoo, let’s get to know her better, shall we?!
What brought you to ScrapMatters? I’m pretty sure it was a CT call. But I can’t really remember…
What is your main job/career? I’m a SAHM. Recently I’ve tried to get people to pay me to scrapbook. I also teach viola lessons to one little girl in my town. And I received a degree in Family History from BYU, that I now use for nothing, but I have been extracting Greman Church Records for genealogical purposes with a professor there.
Are you married/kids/pets? I’ve been married for, well it’ll be 9 years in December. We have 4 gorgeous kids, 2 dogs and 1 cat.
Where do you call home? Right now we live in a (technical) ghost town in Utah, but my husband and I both grew up near York, PA and PA is still home in our hearts.
What are your three favorite foods? Ikea’s Swedish Meatballs, Fettucine Alfredo, pierogies
What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? mint chocolate chip
Do you prefer salty or sweet snacks? usually sweet
What is your favorite beverage? hmmm…I’m not much of a drinks person…I really like hot chocolate, and I’ve been known to drink it even in the middle of summer. I suppose my favorite are smoothies…ooh, I LOVE LOVE LOVE Sonics Strawberry Cream Slush
What is your least favorite food? hmm…I don’t even know because I don’t make what I don’t eat…I guess I don’t like fish products, seafood etc. It’s not something I EVER ate growing up, and now I have no desire to even give it a try. I also don’t really care for boxed macaroni and cheese, but the kids adore it…
PC or Mac? PC
How long have you been digi-scrapping/How did you get into it? I‘ve been scrapping for about a year and a half now. There was a post on Babycenter about digi-scrapping, so I looked at it and decided I could do it. I never did like the expense and mess of paper scrapping, so it’s not something I ever regularly did. Digi-scrapping is perfect for me.
What program do you use to digi-scrap with? Microsoft Picture It
What are your hobbies besides digi-scrapping? I love doing family history stuff, I play the viola, reviewing our finances …I’m terribly boring…
What is the most challenging part of scrapbooking for you? the layout…sometimes I just can’t figure out where to put everything…
What would you like to learn to do (or do better) not related to scrapbooking ? I don’t know…I’d like to know how to sew better, and I’ve never learned how to knit or crochet…
What are your favorite books/authors? I don’t read much, but I do really like the Chronicles of Narnia
What are your favorite movies? I love the Phantom of the Opera movie
What is your favorite quote? I like so many I don’t think I can pick one. I just love every quote about families and kids that are inspirational.
Where do you find inspiration for your layouts? Other layouts in the galleries I frequent.
How much time are you able to spend scrapping each week? Way too much…I’m embarassed to admit it…
Of all of your layouts, which is your favorite and why? This is soooo hard…I really like this one. I love the simplicity of the layout, I loved the kit used, it’s just the most appealing one to me.
Thanks, Katie!! That is one of my favorites, too! Here are more of her LO’s that are just completely adorable:
I love those pink flowers! Too cute!
And this last one that she created for yesterday’s challenge that she’s hosting on the blog! Check that out here… And all the images are “clickable” so you can go leave her some love and check out her other cutie petooty LO’s!
Have a super day, everyone!!
