Angie

My name is Angie and I live in Wisconsin.

I like to make mixed media postcards and ATCs. I like to play with rubber stamps including hand carving my own. I have a big shot with cool dies. I have lots of stencils. I am also a painter - acrylic - mostly pet portraits but I'm trying to broaden my subject matter. I also started doing pottery which I enjoy though I'm not great.

I have two dogs - Bruiser and Cheddar. They're both Pekingese - one black and white, one fawn and white. Both adorable.

I'm not a strict follower of astrology though that whole Gemini thing certainly has some truth to it. I often see things from multiple points of view. In addition, I can be social and gregarious and then quiet and a good listener. I'm happy both ways just at different times. I enjoy pulling tarot cards for myself as a way to try to center my thoughts and have fun. Again, not a strict follower.

I remember my dreams vividly and I do think they tell me things. A book I was reading recently suggested that we are all the characters in our dreams. I find that interesting.

I love to read both fiction and non-fiction. I've been in a book group with friends for 10+ years. This year my goodreads.com challenge is to read 40 books. Last year was 30 and I achieved that goal.
