(updated 8/18) I am a SAHM of three. Two boys 17 & 13 and life's "little" surprise my 4yr old daughter. My oldest Coleton loves music and can play several instruments also sings at competition level. Is in the school chorale and has placed in several regional contests. My middle son is my comedian. Loves to make everyone laugh. He is all about video games and wrestling. My baby Gracelyn definitely keeps me busy and is a DIVA. Loves her jewelry, Barbies and painting her nails.

Furry Family

We have three cats Jaspurr an orange tabby, Squibby a LARGE white and gray cat and Tinker Puss my hand raised bottle fed baby a gray tabby ( with the fluffiest tail I've ever seen lol maybe his daddy was a skunk) .Layla a Chorkie ( Chihuahua/ Yorkie mix) , Miss Elleanor(Elli) & Oliver(Ollie) our ferrets, and two hermit crabs Bob and Sharky.

I collect Hello Kitty, Fairies( not Tinkerbell), used stamps, washi tape( somewhat of a hoarder ), & anything strange or odd ( think bones, mummified items/animals, teeth etc Lol)

I love crafting, drawing , painting, reading(horror & romance mostly), gardening, photography, hiking, and spending time with my awesome kids.

I also pen pal and have been for 10 years. It is a wonderful way to truly "see" the world thru another's eyes and truely makes you realize the world is bigger than your hometown.

*My pet peeves are liars, scammers, and rude people.

Love anything that can be made but my favorites are pocket letters, atcs, stamping, jewelry, tutus, bows, tags and any paper crafts.

My favorite craft supplies would be die cuts, washi, stickers, cute paper, stamps ( love any and all but the Gorjuss, Besties, and Prima doll stamps are my #1 favs). I really haven't met a medium or technique yet I refuse to try out.

** If interested in swapping any type of stamped images just msg me.

Just a few ideas but even my dislikes are appreciated and used somehow 😊

Likes: Washi tape😍 However most $ Tree and ALL decos(plastic tape)are NOT washi and I do not use them. Also prefer a design not solid or dots, stripes ect.Samples are AWESOME I have a large shoebox organized by theme just for them.

Die cuts/ paper punches 😍

Scrapbook paper (at least 3x3 inches)

Embossing powder fine to put a little in a bag just let me know what it is. Lol received several unknown white (and a blk )powdered bags.

***As a pen pal I know mail is ALWAYS unpredictable if you do not receive please let me know I will resend. I will also msg you and see if you received after a certain amount of time. Also if you need/want proof I always take pics of stamped envelope ( or tracking # if it needed it) that I can email you.

If ANY mail sent to you has postage due PLEASE let me know. I pay postage at least once a week on swaps I RECEIVE from others so I know how tedious and expensive it can be.

I am in a smoking household. I do keep my swap stuff in containers and away from it as much as possible however I can't guarantee no smoke smell very sorry 😔

*** I always rate within a day or two of receiving however I'm not so quick to remember to go back and add a ty & msg to your rate if I didn't when I rated. Doesn't mean I am not THANKFUL or didn't LOVE it. Just means I'm human and forgot as I don't always have the time to do it when I leave a rating.So don't get your feelings/and or pride hurt if you get a silent 5 with or without a heart😙

I am VERY understanding about swaps. If you are having problems let me KNOW. Such as but NOT LIMITED TO:

• Loss of job/family/friends/pet/sanity

• Forgot accidentally /or on purpose

• Moving/moved/left country

• PO Black hole swallowed it ( it happens it happens a lot)

• PO lost/stole/burnt it to appease the Goddess of Postage

• Mailman/woman/idiot has kept/stole/lost it

• Going to be a day/week/month/year late sending

• Just didn't feel like and/or care about doing it yet

• Abducted by aliens and haven't been back to Earth because you were forced to marry the Prince of Uranus

***No matter the reason just please let me KNOW and I promise I won't rate down. I will WORK with you! HOWEVER if you ignore me and my msgs, don't communicate, don't keep up with YOUR end of the swap, and/or don't uphold your promise to me than I WILL NOT change anything about my rating so please save time and don't ask me too.

****Thanks****
