If you don't receive something from me, I make it right. I rate the day it arrives. I am an American missionary living in Ukraine. We love living in Europe. I like to garden, we have a big yard with lots of flowers, a dog and we live in the forest.
For those who like to check dates. Please understand that we are in a little country village. When I mark sent, I've sent. That doesn't mean they've processed it or how long it sits in the box as the p.o. here is closed two days every week. It means I've left it with them. I don't flake so please contact before rating. Sometimes things get lost.
I teach crafts and scrap booking in Ukraine. It's a mission and I provide everything. No scrapbook stores here so I like swapping for your destash. I keep an art journal, I draw, I do ATCs, altered items, beading, mini-books and more. I love vintage anything, though I do not need lace.
Postcard/ATC preferences: Vintage, particularly people, children, birds and flowers. Anything flowers, garden, nature, steampunk. Rubberstamps: same as just above plus background stamsp, but NO WOODEN BACKS please. No room to store them.
Colors: My favs are teal and purple, but also deep green and midnight blue, burgundy, magenta...the jewel tones in general. And I love anything vintage or steampunk.
White ladies glove(s),the kind from the 50/60's. White gel pen or white marker, anything white. Sequin waste, large size. Glassine paper or envelopes. Just got a Cricut die-cut machine, but not many cartridges so I'd love to have swirl, paisley, bird, flower cut-outs, butterflies, leaves, trees, snowmen, clocks, gears, anything steampunk or vintage and anything Tim Holtz, preferably in cardstock, but any way you want to send. U.S. Forever stamps. Manilla shipping tags #5. Love,love,love small crocheted flowers, Vintage white pillow cases with embroidery, Battenburg lace items, doilies and hankies, old embroidery,crochet or tatting (holes, stains, damage are ok)
Embellishments or stickers of flowers or anything nature.I supply everything for my classes and ladies love flowers. Did I say I love vintage and steampunk? I"m doing a bird altered book so bird/butterfly/dragonfly is good. Love birds. Can't buy scrapbook stuff here so all is appreciated.
Address labels in whatever pattern you'd like to do would be great. Swap cards too.
You destash and I'll send from my list. See "Things I can Swap."
Brass/metal stencils (used ok) Broken/cast-off jewelry that I can repurpose. Necklace chains or bracelet chains. Any beaded necklaces we can take apart for bracelet ministry.
Tape runners, clear glue dots are the ONLY adhesives I need. But I would love washi tape in any pattern (vintage? Tim Holtz?). Can't get it here.
I have great items for collage or art journaling: foreign maps, music, brochures, and product labels, business cards and other odd and colorful items all in foreign language, usually Russian, Ukrainian, Romanian, Georgian, French and Armenian. Also have a small amount of Arabic and Hebrew language items. I sometimes have whole magazines in foreign language you could tear up for mixed-media.
Can send Seed beads and pony beads, all colors. Cast off watches for mixed-media parts New cross stitch and embroidery kits. Some castoff jewelry for crafting
Craft books(also Kid's craft books). Pretty cards and stationary.
I have a lace/trim/ribbon collection that goes back to the 1960's so vintage for sure, will trade.
Sometimes I have foreign money I can trade.
Foreign postcards from Eastern Europe and Asia (Russia, Armenia, Georgia, Turkey, Ukraine). Also vintage looking postcards from various countries.
Destash from your extras in exchange for what I have.
Beautiful paper napkins from Europe.
I'll trade for scrapbook stuff since we can't buy it here....your chance to clear out what you don't want. I like vintage anything, but needn't limit it to that.
I need a banner for my Etsy shop. Would love to try any of the following since we have no scrapbook stores here: ModPodge Hard Coat & ModPodge Sparkle, Pentel Gel Roller for Fabric (any color except gold. Silver if they have it), Smooch Paints, Pan Pastels(I have blue/gray set), Gold/Silver Leaf pens, Foiling Tape (the kind that wraps around glass), Rubber stamps: gears, clocks, any steampunk, no wood backs please. Too hard to store. One inch circle punch, Martha Stewart Glass Glitter, Microscope slides (glass) or similar, Tim Holtz (or otherwise) alcohol inks, Tim Holtz Mixatives (I have silver and gold) pearl?
I have enough cards and stationary thank you. No candy or plastic beads, please. No skulls or dark side stuff. Don't need tea or coffee and I"m over the top with note pads. Thanks, anyway.
Evitake flaked on a Stuff It Full swap
Evelyn Rozychi (eviroz), rated 3 for a swap that was evidently lost twice and even tho' I sent a third registered and she got it, she felt the need to rate down. Spoiled my perfect 5. Too bad. My record of ratings speaks for itself that I am not a flaker, so be cautious if you swap with her.

Wishing you a beautiful Spring Group: European Swap Diva's. Many Greetings
Your granddaughter is in my prayers!
Thank you so much for the package =) I'm going to have a lot of fun with it, especially the earrings! What a fun idea, combining two of my favorite hobbies =) And the cat chart is very cute, my next office needs space above the printer for a picture like that.
Hi Coleen! Hope you've had a blessed weekend! I've got another package headed your way sometime soon! Let me know when you get it! :) -Joy
I rec'd the French magazine and can't wait to "rip" into it...LOL! Thank you sooo much for thinking of me:) Holiday Blessings to you and yours! {hugs}
Coleen, the blueberry tea came today! I can smell it through the pkg. ♥ It's gorgeous. It's now the end of my day but I will have some tomorrow.
Is this the tea you sent so long ago? There's no date in your note and I'm wondering if it's the initial tea you sent or did you go to the trouble of resending. If only I could give you an actual hug! . .thank you so much. :o)
