About Me

I'm a 40 year old mother of 3, wife of 1. I love to read and write and enjoy anything "paper", postage stamps, postcards, bookmarks, stickers, scrapbooking papers and cardstock, etc. I really like the letter swaps, as I feel that in today's society the penned letter is becoming an antique. I also love all things relating to YARN or THREADS, specifically knitting and crocheting, though I also enjoy cross-stitching and would like to learn to tat.

FAVORITE COLORS: Fuschia (or hot pink); royal or cobalt blue; emerald green; ivory; and "Fall" colors of burgandy, hunter green, gold, and browns; lime green, too.

FAVORITE CRAFTS: Crocheting, knitting, cross-stitching, beading, scrapbooking, and anything else paper or yarn related.

LOVE: butterflies, ladybugs, dragonflies, flowers, green frogs, sheep, waterfalls, rainbows, hearts, teacups/teapots

FAVORITE MUSIC: Contemporary Christian music is my favorite. I also enjoy a little classical and jazz.

FAVORITE BOOKS: Contemporary Christian Fiction (not romance), biographies and autobiographies, some mysteries....just not horror or gore. Fave authors: Any published by Multanomah, Tyndale, Harvest, Bethany House, Pacific Press. Other authors: Nicholas Sparks, Debbie Macomber, Richard Paul Evans.

Comment: I love the owl and the extras. My kids want to keep all my amigurumi too =). I wish it wasnt so late or that you would have contacted me to let me know it was going to be late.
Response: So glad that it arrived and you love it! Yes, I'm sorry I wasn't able to contact you earlier than I had to let you know it would be late. But you were generous with your rating, and that's kind of you. :)

Comment: As of today (10/26/08) I have NOT recd this swap. The deadline to send was 9/19/08. If I receive this I will re-rate.
Response: Tracy, I'm so sorry that this has not arrived. I sent it over a month ago and my other partner had already received hers (left feedback on Sept. 25). I can only assume your letter was lost in the mail. I have the original copy of the letter because I sent a copy to each of you, so I'll just make another copy and send it again. I'm so glad I kept a copy of the original for my journaling.

Comment: Hi Karla, Thanks so much for all the info about Metter. I grew up in a city about that size and your letter made me wish I was in a place like that again. I liked it that everyone knew everyone! Thanks also for including the brochures about Guido Gardens. I may never get to Georgia, but I feel I've had a mini-vacation there already! Thanks again, and God bless you richly. Susan (amarettomamma)

Comment: Thanks for telling me your happy story -- yes, many have similar experiences, but you told it personally and "for real" and that's what the idea was. Congratulations on your whole family.

Comment: Thank you so much for the nice card. Thanks for sending one with orange on it. I love anything orange. That is interesting that we both like to collect postcards, and we both love ladybugs. Thanks again for making this swap a great one. Sondra

Comment: Karla, you promised several times to send the envelope of scrapbook items - but several months later, you still haven't done so. I am really disappointed not to receive anything, especially since you hosted this swap. Updated 8/19/08 Karla, thank you for sending the package full of nice things, and for your personal letter. I really do appreciate that you made the effort to fulfill the swap, but hope you understand that the three rating is because it was sent many months after the deadline.
Response: Yes, Sara, I let the ball drop on this one, and I'm so SO sorry! Excuses are not wanted, I'm sure, but just know that when I last said that I was going to get your package off in the mail, I had every intention of doing that. But stuff happened and I didn't get it mailed. I've regretted how I let this exchange just remain unfinished, and I know I disappointed you. Please know that I am back now and you are the first exchange I mailed off as I pick up and run with these exchanges I let drop. I mailed it Priority Mail yesterday (Friday, 8/15/08) so you should have it Monday. I can't adequately express my apologies to you for letting this swap sit on the wayside, but I hope you will forgive me and that the package you receive will help you forget my poor performance in this swap....Karla, 8/16/08 PS: Delivery Confirmation #03063030000323844766 UPDATE: Delivered at 2:11 pm, 8/18 in Sarasota, FL 34236 per USPS.com UPDATED 8/19: No problem about the 3 rating, Sara! I would never have expected a 5 because that would not be an accurate rating. Thank you for updating the rating from a "not received", though. :)

I was just reading your profile again and realized you liked books published by Multanoma. They are right here in my little town of Sisters! They employ many of my neighbors.

Welcome to Notecards to Go! And, welcome back to Swap-Bot. Hope your life is a bit less crazy now and happy to see you active here again :-)

Hey zigg13pra! Oh my, I'm sure I didn't take anything you might have said the wrong way 'cause I don't remember what you said! haha! Thank you for anything you said to help the swap along. No offense taken here! I'm glad I arrived in time to save the day! Like you, I don't want anyone in the swap who might flake so I'm glad I was back in town in time to weed out the few that didn't fill my swap pre-requirements. Hope you have fun in the swap!...Hugs! Karla
zigg13pra on Oct 25, 2007:

Hey I hope you didnt take what I said on the Blank Notecard swap the wrong way. I was only explaining to them how it worked and expressing my concern because I was a bit worried that a few people would get into the swap and then flake. But you showed up and saved the day! Thanx! :D
MandiNoel on Oct 12, 2007:
