Please let me know if you do not receive a swap from me, I always send and will send you a replacement if it gets lost in the mail.

I'm about to get a new puppy!! I'm so excited and I don't have any puppy things. So if you'd like to send me doggy treats, I'd love it!

I love to knit and make cards. I have a flair for event planning and personal shopping.

Interesting facts about me: I have worked at many types of jobs: restaurant, bakeries (2), retail, offices, theatres, outdoor theatre, bike guard, box office, wedding planner, event planner, and have now settled into a lovely non-profit job.

I have moved over 20 times in my life and I am not yet 25.

I love taking pictures. I come from a family of professional photographers - but am not one my self.

I went to a college that is no longer around, and I just graduated in 08.

I have been crafting a long as I can remember, and I have dabbled in almost everything. I love it all, but think I have found what I am really good at.

My mom and I taught ourselves how to knit out of a book when I was in high school.

My mom is my best customer, she requests cards for every Christmas and Birthday

I almost went to school for an art degree - instead I got a business degree from an art school

I remember words to songs that I haven't heard in years, if I had this uncanny ability for something else, I could probably be a brain surgeon or something.

Paper Crafts (cards, scrapbooking), knitting, crochet, sewing

I think I'm really going to like matchboxes, I can't stop searching them on flickr! ;)

I love jazz, blues (billie and ella), some pop (love me some gaga), old school country (patsy), love the oldies, rock and roll, and (yes I'll admit it) show tunes. So, a little bit of everything.

Any Johnny Depp movie, Shop girl, old musicals (White Christmas, Fiddler, Cabaret, etc),
