About Me

I am back and ready to swap

I recently got engaged!! No date set yet but I am so excited!

I love seeing stamps from other countries, so if its possible when sending me some thing if you could use stamps I would love it!

''Revenge is a dish best served inky'' =D

Please please please do not send me any thing to do with frogs and dinosaurs. I am petrified of them and I keep getting little bits to do with them. It is in my dislikes but I have to put it here too. Even the cute kind freak me out, all though I do like Keroppi.

I'm Ann-Marie * waves *. I love to crochet even though I am still learning and making altered matchboxes. I'm not the most crafty person but I do try. I have the most wonderful fiance James who is teaching me to crochet. I'd be completely lost with out James, music and my handbag. My favorite colour is green =)

Recently I have gotten into make Amigurumi's and now I can't stop! I love seeing unusal patterns and I am looking for some geeky patterns to make things for James.

Bit of a strange request but please do not staple packages together at the top if your sending me one I've always had this fear that the staple is some how gonna get stuck in one of my fingers.

Oh and its Ann-Marie with out the E on Ann.

I can't angel every swap I host, the money I have is pretty tight. Some I can angel but not all of them. Sorry if this a problem.

I always rate or say thank you for a swap or a tag, it doesn't take long to say thanks. It would be nice if you did the same. Also I all ways put my name and swap on the bottom of matchboxes I make because some one has tried selling one I made.

Wishlist

  • Kawaii things esp Badtz Maru for James

  • Buttons

  • Craft paper

  • Wool

  • Amigurumi patterns

  • Deco tape

  • Kawaii sticker flakes

  • Japanese snacks like Hi Chew and Pocky

  • Any thing Domo Kun and Gloomy Bear

  • Things to do with Ed Hardy or that kind of old fashioned tattoo style.

  • Stationary esp cute writing paper and gel pens

  • Ribbon and other bits that are good for filling up matchboxes

  • I love every thing sparkly, neon and bright

  • I love Spiderman and Batman, The Joker is my most favorite from Batman, I'd love any thing to do with him.

  • I am looking for stripy wool in bright colours as I am making a blanket for James in all different stripy wools.

  • I love fruit tea, any flavor at all. I really want to try some unusual flavors like bubble gum or banana. The only flavor I wont drink is green tea, it has a funny taste. If possible when sending me tea if you can send Lipton herbal orange I would be so thankful!

  • I love any thing to do with cupcakes, it can be any thing from craft items to actual cupcakes lol. Any thing with cupcakes on I will love.

I'd rather not get

I think I am allergic to just orange wool as it makes my hands all red and sore. I dislike milk chocolate most of the time as it is far too sweet. Bootleg Hello Kitty makes me sad. Chip board pieces, some are ok but only useful ones in nice shapes. Nothing to do with Twilight or New Moon either, I just don't get the whole fuss over it. I don't really like the colour grey or brown. Green tea is weird.

Kawaii/cute likes and dislikes

I love any thing kawaii especially Hello Kitty and Badtz maru. I don't really mind if its not a known brand of kawaii as long as its cute but I don't like bootleg Hello Kitty. I prefer to recieve kawaii food with faces, animals are cute but not as cute as the food ones. I love kawaii phone charms, the bigger the better.

I really don't like Rilakkuma, hes just not cute enough for me. I also really dislike real animals in a kawaii way, they are just creepy!

Flaked on =(

Lamira for a desert matchbox from the PF's matchbox tag. Angeled by misstaks- thank you so much.

Rockyhorrorgerri - It was a flickr swap, I sent ATC papers in return for a pink back badge with a moustache on it. No reply to PM's on flickr or on here.

@WeEatCrayons - Pick2 tag, tagged way back in July and never recieved. PMed and left comments. Angeled by @Chinacat . Thank you so much Robin its all so lovely.

Carolinev237 on Jul 29, 2011:

Many thanks for the birthday card, it is appreciated. Thanks Caroline x (still not made any matchboxes yet! I am the Queen of procrastination) x

kittenred on Jul 20, 2011:

well I can definitely recommend the b+b where i stayed for you as somewhere for your parents to stay when they visit..it was so nice there, i'd stay again and adam loved the food (and he is a very picky eater at times!) it is in hunter's bar tho so a little way out from city centre, but easy to get to by bus...... (google 'number 15 sheffield')

when I get home next I will take pictures of the figurines/blister packs that I can get to and then you can take a look and go from there x

kittenred on Jul 18, 2011:

Hi hun, yeah, i gave up and got the train home this morning (well, at dinner time!) it's gonna cost a bomb to get the car fixed. i went to the paperchase concession (in waterstones) on sunday ---> they're doing 3 for 2 on a lot of the stickers! :) I've got quite a few of the hk figurines still unopened in blister packs that i'm thinking of rehoming...would you want any of those?
