About Me

Hello everyone, My name is grumpy and I love to swap.

grumpy I AM ALLERGIC TO CINNAMON (BUT LOVE TO SMELL IT) & CAFFINEE (MOST CHOCOLATES HAVE IT). THOSE ARE THINGS I CAN'T EAT..

I had 2 home busniesses one is called Low Cost Pet Clipping and the other is Aquatic Restoration Center (a freshwater fish rescue). I have 8 cats(mostely white cats), which I am allergic to. I moved from Indiana to Arizona. I just love it out here.

I "rescue" momma cats and their babies. I give them a safe place to grow up and once they are old enough I get them all fixed and adopted out. I usually get stuck with the moms since everyone wants kittens. I can always use your unwanted pet items, I don't care that they are used.

My favorite colors are pink, purple, and blues (in that order and mixed..lol). I HATE green unless its on trees or the ground.

I LOVE RECEIVING HANDMADE ITEMS!

As of APRIL 4TH 2009 I have 2 Australian Shepards and 6 white cats. I don't rescue any more since it almost "killed me". I had so much trouble breathing the doctor was going to put me in the hospital... So now I just have my animals.

I just found out I have sleep apnea and have to have a CPAP machine when I sleep. I found using this at night really helps. I also was able to take myself off all my meds for my allergies and astma!! Just an added benefit..

Favorite Crafts

I love paper quilling (always needing papers), rubber stampers, Sizzix/Sizzlits, CuttleBug/CuttleKids, and others.. Paper punches, paint by numbers, doing "fans" and "decos". I always like getting charms, brads, ribbon that I can use on my fans, books on craft projects so I can learn more.

I love pictures from books/magizines. Especially Peacocks, safari, mermaid, penguins, zebras, sea horses, pandas, oriental, Geisha pictures, under the sea/ocean themes. I use rubber stampers, UM and mounted stampers, foam stampers, Sizzix, paper punches, fancy papers, odd things, origomi/kirogomi, and so much more. I have trouble getting "Foil Class A border stickers" & paper that looks like wood and Mulberry paper that is thin.

I have a HARD TIME FINDING.. Asian pictures, vintage things, paper that looks like wood, thin mulberry paper, things with Peacocks, seahorses, mermaids and penguins.

what I collect

grumpy Care Bears (especially Grumpy Bear), Oriental/Asian things, dust (don't send me this I have enough..lol), ocean/sea things for my bathrooms, pc games, music cds (all kinds especially country and relaxation), books on scrapbooking or art things like Paper Quilling, card making and such. I also collect all Nintendo games and consoles. I have all of them! lol

I love anything with Peacocks, Penguins, Mermaids, Zebras, Amish things, Sea Horses, Pandas, Koala Bears, Geisha, Sea Otters, Eskimos, ocean/sea stuff... Heck just about anything..lol

Favorite Music

Garth Brooks, Reba, Collin Raye, Lorrie Morgan, Chely Wright, Dolly Parton,

relaxation, sounds of ocean or instruments or animals/nature.

Favorite Video or PC games...

Any Nintendo games or items!! GameCube, DS lite, GameBoy, Wii, Nintendo 64, Super Nintendo..

Sims, Mario Party, Zelda!!, Pac-man, Virtual Villagers, Escape from Paridise Island, Canasta card game (I AM LOOKING FOR A GAME CD WITH CANASTA, IF YOU KNOW OF ONE PLEASE LET ME KNOW), Build-A-Lot, WestWard,

Favorite Television

I love CSI, NCSI, Survivor, Grace Under Fire, Friends, King of Queens, Yes Dear, Angela's eyes, Army Wives, Card Sharks, Doc, Early Edition, Reba, Sue Thomas F.B.Eye, Touched by an Angel, House, Drop Dead Diva,

Favorite Movies

Dirty Dancing, Ghost, Maid In Manhattan, Mrs. DoubtFire, Miss Congeneality, Twilight, Harry Potter, Jeff Dunham,

animated movies like Shrek, Spirit, Ice Age, Cars, Incrediables, Madagascar, Happy Feet, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc, Spirit,

anything with Sandra Bullach, Julia Roberts, Adam Sandler, Robin Williams,

Comment: Thank you for the cute fans. I can't wait to start making mine. I might have to PM you for advice, but I'll try on my own first. Thanks for having this private swap with me! ;-)
Response: I am glad you like them. If you need advice I will try to help. I am not good with teaching people but I will do my best. No problem on having a private swap. Any time I am always glad to do a private swap.

Hi Nathalie! What a beautiful fan! what a super cute idea... Thank you so very much for angeling the quilling swap for both of my partners...this is a wonderful replacement for anything those flakers could have done!
Thanks Again! Jen

craftykathy1 on Jul 1, 2009:

Thanks for the invitation for the quilling swap. I haven't learned how to do this yet, nor do I have the proper equipment. It's going to be a busy summer (it already has been), so I won't be doing any learning of new techniques just yet or any more swaps right now. Thanks again. I'll look for you in the future. KATHY

HOW TO ADD A PICTURE ON YOUR PROFILE...

!+[grumpy]+(http://i704.photobucket.com/albums/ww44/grumpybear88888/Tori-GrumpyCareBearLetter11111111.gif?)

! is to show that it is a picture, not just a clickable link

[grumpy] is the title which will show if for any reason the picture does not display properly - you can just use the square brackets with nothing between them if you prefer, but they must be there, with no space between or before or after them

(http://i704.photobucket.com/albums/ww44/grumpybear88888/Tori-GrumpyCareBearLetter11111111.gif?) is the URL or the picture, and obviously must be there.

the + signs are just there to stop SB trying to display the picture in this PM instead of letting you see the code. So remove the + signs.

Pictures must come from a website not email.. right-click on the picture and select Properties, then you can copy the correct URL from the box which comes up. If you try to use the URL of the whole web page, it will not display on SB.

Thank you Jenny for teaching me to add pictures!!!

Hi- My name is Troy(atlantian) & I signed up for a fan swap(sea horse i think). Any how I'm hooked!! I just love making those fans. I'm big into paper, Images & recycling them. I wanted to signup for the other fan swaps but swap-bot won't let me. I'm a newbie. Already done 2 swaps though. I hope to get into more as soon as I can. I'll be ordering one of those templets soon. Peace be with you Troy
