About Me

****************NOTE********************

I just found out today (thanks to the post office) that some of you that I have sent swaps to may have had to pay some for the postage. This was thanks the the short sightedness of a co-worker. If this has happened to you please let me know. I would like to make it up to you. Maybe a trade, some supplies or just me sending you some stamps. PLEASE LET ME KNOW! I'm so sorry!


HI! I'm Wendy. I've been doing crafts since I was 6, that was about the time my mom started trusting me with sharp objects (I cut myself more now than when I was a kid).I'm 43 have no kids. Have been in a LTR with the same guy now for over 10 years. I work for a medical transport company. I craft, A LOT.

I used to teach classes at one of my local Michael's. Right now I have been doing a lot of paper crafts.

I've worked with polymer clay, gourds, glass etching. I've designed earrings, costumes, skating dresses, and logos. I've made various stuffed animals and dolls. Every year I make Christmas ornaments to give as presents, I also make my own Christmas cards ever year. I have been making ATC's for a little over 3 years now. I like rubber stamping and some scrapbooking.

I've painted a few animals on rocks, but pretty much gave that up when I realized it cost more to send them than paint them.

I'm wanting to learn how to airbrush, I've had the airbrush for 7 years I think it's about time to bust it out of it's package.

Favorite Music

Beatles, 80's, Enigma, Paul McCartney. Classic rock. Been stuck in a FALCO groove for the last month or so. I hate to think how much music we lost in him and John Lennon.

Favorite Television

Numbers, NCIS, CSI, Dirty Jobs (Sure just ask me about Dirty Jobs, if you got the time....) Ghost Hunters, 2 1/2 Men. Just about anything on the Sci Fi channel, or Discovery, HGTV (I miss Carol Duvall)

Likes

Artsy Fartsy stuff. Asian, egyptian and Celtic themes. Purples, greens. I ADORE anything that has to do with the Beatles or crafting. I love rubberstamps, especially embossing powders. I used to LOVE Hello Kitty, just can't spend the money on it anymore. I like the Kawaii stuff (I didn't even know it existed until I saw it here)that's out there now,but there is no place in Tucson that sells it. We have 1 Hello Kitty Store here. OOOOH just discovered Skullies! Too cute!

Dislikes

I don't do cutesy. Especially babies. I had my fill already, even though I've never had any. Or religious. Not fond of pink. MARTHA STEWART!

GUYS! Likes A LOT =)

My guy Steve! Brendan Fraser, Adrian Paul (met, drool), Mike Rowe (met, He actually smells good!) His side kick snicker Dave Barsky (met, great guy!), Paul McCartney (was within 20 feet of him, I chickened out), John Schneider (met, another great guy) that's about it until something else happens.

Wish list

A Wishblade (not going to hold my breath on that one)

Face rubber stamps.

Landscape rubber stamps.

Shrink plastic that goes through the computer printer. Especially clear! (can't find that anymore)

Embossing powders.

Sizzix/Sizzlets dies.

Really cool ephemra. (Asian, Egyptian, & Celtic)

Makin's clay. (can't buy it here anymore)

Nice air dry clay.

Push molds (non cutesy)

Big chunks of natural Mica. Bigger than 2 inches square.

Otherwise I pretty much have everything I need.

Comment: Wendy! What a fabulous ATC. I was so excited when I saw your comment saying that you were going to use leather and then I was your partner. It is everything (and more) than I imagined! And the extras, wow!, I'm speechless. Really, really nice stuff!. If I could give more hearts I would, because you definitely went above and beyond on this one. Thank you SO much! :-)
Response: I LOVE working with leather in ATC's. Thank you for your patience with me. I wish I could have given more just as a thank you, but every one's taste varies.

Response: You're welcome! As for trading with me again, I'm sure it will happen eventually. Doesn't look like I'm going anywhere =). The stamps were brought back from Holland specially at my request. I figured...free souvenirs that didn't take up much space. Glad you like them.

Hello Seestor...Ok, I poked around and I guess I could get hooked! Great subjects to stimulate creativity. Hmmm...seems like being a newbie is the challenge. How many swaps do you have to do before you're not a newbie anymore?
