Here is what Katharina had to say...


Whiff ofJoy describes Katharina Frei’s passion for stamping and card making best. Quality time with her family comes first, but she loves to spend every free second at her crafting table. To run her own stamp company with exclusive, limited ranges of cute images has always been her dream and now it has come true. Whiff of Joy celebrated will be celebrating its 2nd anniversary in October 2010. Katharina is convinced that she has been blessed with an amazingly talented team of illustrators and creative designers right from the start. She hopes other people will love the ideas and that they will spread a Whiff of Joy.


Katharina worked as Creative Designer for various well known stamp companies. It was a lot of fun, but she wanted to have more influence on the kind of images and designs that hit the market. Another reason for founding Whiff of Joy was that the German stamp market was really small (almost not existing), which was a real pity. Card Making and stamping is fairly new to Germany, Austria and Switzerland (in comparison to the United States and Great Britain). Katharina wanted to take a chance to be one of the first to bring international designs and illustrations to the German speaking countries, as well as to the other central European countries.

Situated in the heart of Europe (Switzerland),
Whiff of Joy specializes in natural, deeply etched red rubber stamps, die cuts and other card making goodies. All of which are designed specifically for stampers, from a stamper.
Whiff of Joy works hard to exceed your expectations both in quality and service.
Share our passion for creating homemade gifts and cards. Express your love and
appreciation for your loved ones by surprising them with a self-made gift.
With a Whiff of Joy stamp you will always be able to highlight
a magical moment in somebody’s life.

The prize up for grabs this week is...

ONE rubber stamps of your choice from the Whiff of Joy range.

 As always the winner will be chosen using Random.org
