Me


Too much going on IRL that has drained me of emotional energy. I don't have the desire to swap right now, especially with the increasing numbers of crappy hosts and lackadaisical swappers, and no administrative oversight of the site. SB appears to be circling the drain.

I like

  • ocean colors, esp. aqua
  • coffee
  • architecture, blueprints
  • lilacs, tulips, and bluebonnets
  • Craftsman style architecture, Mission and Shaker furniture
  • birds: any kind, but especially cardinals and penguins
  • dogs
  • cats

Please don't send

I would appreciate not receiving anything with the following themes or motifs:

  • Adult themes (nudity, vulgarity, coarse language)
  • Anything satanic or having to do with the occult
  • Wicca, paganism, or anything that worships or idealizes "Mother Earth" or "Goddess."
  • Eastern mysticism; Buddhism; Islam; Shintoism; pantheism.
  • Depictions of violence or death
  • Politicized rainbows
  • Rodents (mice, rats)
  • Snakes

Comment: Loved all of the embellies! I am new to flip books, too (I have yet to make one) but have made embellishments. I especially loved your glazed stamps ... really cool idea. Thanks for hosting!
Response: I'm not really a pen pal writer, but I like the idea of flip books for journaling. They are pretty fun to make. Maybe I'm really into the making more than using, LOL. Thanks for joining the swap!

Hi Diane, Hope you are doing well and that you really have not stopped participating in swaps! I'm a partner of yours from Profile Hello #5 and I'm writing from lovely Portland, Oregon. I'm new, but hoping I can get more swaps under my belt - especially snail mail as I love to craft notes and make my own envelopes. All the best to you, Jen

Profile Hello #5

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*

Hi there, Diane! I saw you liked cardinals and penguins, so I included a little of both to show your page a little SB love! <3 I hope you're having a great week and take good care, okay? :)
VivaLaDiane on Jul 27, 2017:

Just letting you know I'm thinking of and adore you! ♥♥
nellswell on Jul 21, 2017:

Er, I meant to say "just saw your note on MY profile" -- though I did see the one on yours, as well (and I certainly understand the burned-out feeling!). Thank you for the comment, by the way. :-)
nellswell on Jul 21, 2017:

Just saw your note on your profile! I still have a lot going on but am hoping to return here by September. Hopefully this place will still be here; despite its (many) flaws, I do miss it!
VivaLaDiane on Jul 3, 2017:

I am honored. ❤️❤️

Thank you for the wonderful parcel of goodies. The lace is so exactly perfect, I was just at the store looking for lace for a wedding mini/junk journal that I am making. You are fantastic.
