I am a whimsical style artist that loves to draw cutesy things. I like to remake old time characters and add a modern touch. I am a stay at home mother to five, with three left in the nest. I love the fact that I have rekindled the artsy side of me. (thank you Laur). I love all things natural. (ie. anything God created) I have recently found interest in using plants for medicinal purpose and learning more about being self-sufficient. We have six horses, seven dogs, four cats and a hamster. I homeschool my children and have for 11 years. My greatest passion is... MICE I love mice drawings, mice figures, mice clothing accessories, WHATEVER. My favorite season is Autumn, all the brilliant colors and the smell of pumpkin spice. I look forward to sharing all sorts of artsy things with this group. Thanks for letting me be a part of it.

I love country and Christian contemporary. Anything quiet. My newest love is the Indian flute music. so soothing and great for creative thinking.

Redwall series, the mismantle chronicles, Narnia series. Tea Shop Mysteries, anything having to do with MICE be it children's books or not. My little Primer (since I am the author of that one I guess I'd better list it.) I like collecting children's classics, trying to keep them alive for my children and their children.

Pretty much anything on the Hallmark channel. A walk to remember, Notebook, An American Tail. Westerns and Classics.

Law and Order, Without a Trace, CSI, oh and Little House on the Prairie :-)

I guess my first passion is drawing I have really grown to love ATC's and postcards. I don't have a FAVORITE craft per say. I love them all, and, if I don't know how to do them I will work until I do. I also love to do Shrinky dinks and mini stuffies. Since being a member of Swap-bot I have branched out quite a bit and have even made a few matchbox swaps. I am here to learn and craft and craft and learn. All the fun I have been having here is wearing off on my children and now they want to swap too.

First off I love God, my husband, my children, my extended family, and all of my friends. I love MICE!!!! mice with acorns, any acorn shaped things, the colors pink and brown combined on things, writing children's stories and I have written Children's curriculum based from Classic books, I love drawing and am learning how to paint. I love writing people the old fashion way... Snail Mail. :-)

17 yr old daughter., likes horses, pink, brown, guitars, music, and horses. She likes to share all kinds of crafts and ATC's. She likes to sew, scrap, and make note cards.

My 15 yr old daughter is a great artist who loves to draw, paint, and create. She too would like to swap ATC's and other crafts as well. She can crochet and has knitting looms and loves to make hats, scarves and the like.

My 11 yr old son loves to create as well. He would like to trade ATC's with others his age. He is into music, Avatar, and loves computer's.
