Please just let me know if there is a problem and I will do my best to correct it.
If you have me for more than one swap feel free to combine in one envelope.
I have a wide variety of skills and interests which are reflected all the activities and projects I get involved in. I am a crafter, collector, builder, gadgeteer, and adventurer.
I love the fantasy genre first but also enjoy sci-fi and most of what I create has something to do with one of them.
I am also run clubs for Geocaching, Steampunk Workshops, OES, and have been starting up a handicraft guild in my area.
A few of my Favorite Things:
•Colours: GREEN, purple, yellow, black, Autumn colours
•Animals: CAT, wren, fox, owl
•Plants: Sunflower, FOUR LEAF CLOVER, Pussy Willow, Willow Tree
•Movies / TV: Serenity, Firefly, Witchblade, Labyrinth
•Books: Black Jewels, Sookie Stackhouse, Outlander
•Any kind of tea or hot chocolate
•Misc: Steampunk, geocaching, neo-victorian, witches, alternative art, Celtic, Irish, Medieval, pirates, treasure hunting, divination items (Tarot, Runes, Pendulums, etc.), Handmade Charms / Talismans (with good intentions), Elemental Proxies (Something for an altar to represent the element ie sml bell for air)
•ATC Brads, Die Cuts, and sparklies are most welcome.

• Insect / bug
• Army / War / Weapon / Political
• Derogatory to any race, gender, lifestyle etc.
• Quilting, Cross Stitch
• Stuff for kids (I have none)
• No gore, torture - I just don't have the stomache for it - I like dark, scary, thriller, but Torture creatures or gory pain themes are just not for me.
Everything all good in swaps right now as far as I know but I won't do any swaps that go in more than standard mail as postage is a little over my budget lately and I am expecting 2 heavy trains.
SO for now just doing light swaps.
On Break for March. :)

Hi there, I am going way back and tracking the origins and destinations of my swaps. We did the magic word ATC in '11. Can you tell me your city/state or province? Thanks so much!
Thank you for the cute owl bookmark. Im loving it and will be using it quite a bit.

A girl after my own heart. I the largest bedroom in the house as my craft room, Yes, its full to breaking point. New to swap-bot too and still learning to navigate my way round. Would love to to do a mixed swap and get something I'm low on for something I.ve to much off. Get intouch if you are interested. Happy swaps. upthesky
Hi there! .. yes I do need to see your basement.. :P :) .. wow, you are into a lot of different forms of craft.. multi talented! :) .. and..we have nothing in common! :P ..haha.. which is good, because Ive discovered new things like geocaching and it just reminded me that I should step out of my crafting comfort zone and try new things (fascinated with steam punk, but never tried it). I do like the sound of elemental proxies.. I have a tree in my garden which is adorned with all kinds of charms, bells, talismans etc. from all around the world and of all faiths.. definitely drives away the bad stuff! :) .. anyway, hope to bump into you again and swap some ATC's in the future. Have a lovely day! x (Leave a Nice Comment #4)
Hi Jade. Your likes in working with crafts runs alongside mine in similarity. You have an interesting range of interest, and yes, I am with you in that I am new to all this swapping & the jargon, so I can relate to you on that level . I love scrapbooking, stamping & card making as well. Nice to meet you. Have a beautiful day. From Sissy
Oh! I get to leave your first comment. I am glad I got you for the 'leave a nice comment swap' being a fellow origami paper crafter I enjoyed reading your profile. I hope you stick around here I am relatively new too and I like it so far.
