I enjoy all of my swaps and people I come across and will not judge you if you are not like me. Everyone has their own nitch in life and is doing exactly what they are supposed to be doing on their own path.

About Me

I grew up in Southern California at the beach and love anything to do with the ocean, sand and warm sun on my face. I live in West Sacramento, California now, and work as an senior analyst for a law enforcement agency. I am a mother of two young ladies (Tara 24 yrs. and Samira (my angel now). I carry her with me always and know she is with me always. I feel closer to her when the wind and sunshine are on my face. I have a love for God and my family, my German Shepherds (Kassi and JR), doing things for others (always remember to pay it forward), My daughter is my best briend and her gentle heart and smile carry me through each day. My husband supports my habits is just the greatest to do so! Habbits such as Scrapbooking and Card making, baking, bargain shopping at antique stores, unique things & what-nots to decorate with, and my return to college after so many years are few other things he supports me on.

Love my mom - I thank her everyday for getting me into this wild world of card making and scrapping! Just love her to pieces and simply can't thank her enough for being in my life! Mom is a swap bot extrordinare and if you want to meeet her - she is under Maggiesmother and her swap items are great too!

For the Swaps - Message me if you have trouble and we can work it out. Life's too short to rate and upset people badly. Just smile and pm me. Besides, I may the one being tardy one day but will let you know. I hope to live by the same rule too.

Favorite Hobby: Of course Scrapbooking is truly my passion {But I do love cardmaking too!}. I love to make albums/pages that tell a story about the individual. It gives me time with mom, family and friends. Rather than have my photos on the computer, I can go through albums with family and friends. I enjoy card making and enjoy coming up w/new versions. I have brought out my Phaff and have begun sewing. It has been years but mom taught me well. Am interested in just about anything and will try it at least once. I love a challenge to make something out of nothing.

Wish List Anything for card making, paper crafting, scapbooking, or just plain fun! Can always use more buttons, brads, ribbon, scrap paper for cardmaking, embellishments (Christmas ones, western styles, birthday themes, pets, asian themes), stampin up stamps (used is good), unique cookie cutters, card stock that is textured, unusual mediums for scrapbooking and cardmaking, vintage things, recipies, idea sheets for anything, and an address to keep in touch. Oh and did I say buttons?! If I can learn any new techniques I am one happy camper. So please forward me your ideas.
