About Me

My name is Christina and I'm 29 years old. My birthday is August 25th. I am married to the love of my life Steve. We celebrated our 8th wedding anniversary on January 20th. We've been together over 12 years. Our daughter Daliana just turned 1 year old on July 5th.

We live with our 2 cats Abby and Augie in a city called Green Cove Springs, Florida. It's in the northeast part of the state, near Jacksonville.

Being a mom is one of the most exciting things that's ever happened to me. I look at my daughter every day and count my blessings for having her in my life.

I have many pen pals across the globe and would love to swap with people from around the world. I don't get to travel much being a new mom, so being able to reach out and connect like this is fantastic!


I think green and I do like to reuse packaging, so please don't be surprised if you see something that looks used.

I'm also pretty crafty and create my own envelopes at times out of various things (magazines, folders, etc).

This helps keep more junk out of landfills.


My favorite crafts are inchies, matchboxes, ATCs, photo collages, making my own notecards, mini zines, sticker crafts, painting, making pet rocks, beading, and plastic canvas art.

I would love to get my hands on any items to help my crafty endeavors.


If for some reason you do not receive a swap or a tag from me, PLEASE send me a message and let me know! I know that things get lost in the tree mail and I send all of my swaps out on time.

I also rate as soon as I receive a swap, and appreciate you doing the same for me.

Comment: This swap has been received and was nicely presented, though it was quite late. By all appearances (from my perspective) it was not sent out originally, despite the sender's claims that she would re-send. Because I have strong reason to believe that the envelope I eventually received was the first sending of this, and not a re-send, I feel that I must rate this lovely swap a 3.
Response: I am happy that you did receive the re-send of the zines. I'm sorry that the first packet of them never did make it to you. I am sorry you feel that the first one was never sent (which it was), but I am pleased nonetheless that this packet did arrive to you.

Just wondering if you got the Kawaii Gumi sticker flakes swap I sent yet. It should have been there a week ago if not longer. Please let me know!
