Trixie is my beautiful and precious Maine coon cat. I got her from my amazing friend Rikkelle out in Vegas in October 2011 - she is a sweet, smart, and loving little kitty who alternately makes me want to cuddle her and choke her LOL.
I love weather so postcards with ANY kind of weather-related topic would be greatly appreciated. I'm one of those nuts who runs outside during a lightning storm to get the best pictures. I once went to the beach during a hurricane to take pictures! I love bodies of water so any lakes/rivers/oceans/etc. Anything music related - tell me about a band you think I'd like - or comic/cartoon related. I collect map cards and stadiums/arenas. I'm also collecting old cards from Massachusetts...well, I love old cards in general, actually!
I make jewelry so beads are always welcome...I don't use plastic or pony beads but I can find a use for any other kind...
I love card making/scrapbooking so any supplies would be great!!!!! I'll take anything...chances are, I can find a use :) I deco different things using scrapbooking supplies so yeah...anything is welcome!
I've recently started making duck/duct tape items so any duck tape that you want to send will definitely be welcome!
Current projects I am working on:
-8X10 canvas board - recently, I had my 100th show for my favorite band, Big D and the Kids Table. They made a flier that SAID "Danielle DiSisto's 100th show". I saved the flier to my computer and that is becoming the focal point of the canvas I am working on...
-Duck tape purse...will be black with checkerboard trim, a few pockets inside, and the Big D logo plastered along the outside.
-Shadow Box - I have a drum head signed by past and present members of Big D. I placed that in a shadow box and am working on decorating the background...I'm using my very first ticket stub to the first show of theirs I went to, some Big D stickers, and not sure what else yet...
-I have a few jewelry pieces I am working on.
-Decorated picture frame for a friend of mine. She recently had a baby so I am decorating a frame and printing one of her pictures from Facebook to place inside the frame. I will probably do something similar for another friend of mine who actually gave birth today.

Hey! I am one of your profile swap partners. Josie and the Pussycats is one of my favorites too. I remember watching it for the first time at my grandparents house. I thought it was so cool. It's pretty great that you travel around to different places. I've been living in the same small town for almost 20 years now. :p I'm sure Vegas is awesome. Hope you have a nice day! ;)
Profile Hello Swap I love reading your profile - and almost all your favorite books are books that I love, too!
Nice job with your profile! Love that you included so much detail...you seem like a very interesting person! I think it's awesome that you have traveled so much...traveling rocks! I can so relate to your comment about your kitty...I too love mine but sometimes want to choke her. We both enjoy some of the same authors...We both enjoy the tv show Mike & Molly. My husband and I were recently on a cruise and the comedian was a guy who has been on the show and is very good friends with "Mike"...it was fun chatting w/him and we sent him messages to share with "Mike" & "Molly". Glad you so enjoy Swap-bot...I do as well. I enjoyed reading your profile. Take Care! PamV (Profile Hello Swap)
What a fascinating profile to read! You are quite dedicated to your favorite band, that's for sure. LOL! I am also a book lover and music lover, so I can understand where you're coming from there. I don't know a lot of the bands you mentioned, but that's okay. Very few people know one of my top favorite bands either. I hope you are enjoying the "Profile Hello" swap!
Hi I am one of your partners from the Profile Hello swap. Wow, when you love a band you really go all out to see them live! That is wonderful! How nice for you that you have gotten to travel in so many states! I hope to do that some day! LOL! I am also a reader and have enjoyed a couple of the authors you mentioned. I think a person is either a sticker lover or not, with not many in betweens! I love stickers so much that I purchase the same ones several times! LOL! Or that could just mean I am very disorganized in my crafting! LOL! Enjoyed reading about you and hope to be partners again at some point! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
I still have not received the socks from the simply socks swap and it's posted that you sent them on Feb. 24th. Just wanted to let you know.
Hi again! Just a quick comment to let you know that your PC for the PC of a Building - Quick swap has been posted. I probably could have just driven up and dropped it in your box, but...j/k! Anyway, it should be there soon. :D
