Let's see....I'm 22 years old, and I just got married in November of 2007, to my prince charming, ♥Chris. We've been together almost 6 years, and he is my everything. I am Catholic, although I don't go to church as much as I should. I ♥love my family, and my friends. I'm Greek, Sicilian, and French but I'm america grown. I ♥love my heritage, I feel like I was blessed with great culture. I ♥love music, all types, except country (sorry), I ♥love art, making art, scrapbooking, making jewelry, decorating, anything crafty really. I ♥love to cook, and I do it quite well if I do say so myself. Chris' calls me Rachael Ray. I ♥love to Garden. My tomatoes and cucumbers have currently taken over the garden!! We had a cucumber that was 19 inches long!! WHOA!! I also got into bonsai's a couple years ago and I absolutley ♥love them, in fact I ♥love all things that are mini!! I ♥love to try new things. And for the most part I'll try anything once. I ♥love cats, I have 3 of my own that are all from the same litter, there like 14 years old, and they are my babies. 2 boys Felix and Mister, and my baby girl Peanut. One day in my lifetime I would like to..... travel through Europe for like 2 months, get a piece of art or a poem published, or even a book, go to a Broadway show in New York, see the Northern Lights, learn to play guitar, Have kids, become a Photographer, renew our wedding vows♥ under the Eifel Tower in ♥Paris, Climb the pyramids & much more!

I've really found that I ♥love Altered Art the most. I ♥love taking something ordianry, and making it extraodinary. And as an added bonus it's gratifying to recycle, take something old and make it new again, I do have a small problem throwing things out, because I see potential in everything. I also ♥love scrapbooking, mini books, ATC's, I ♥love bright colors. My current color scheme is very Morrocan/Arabian. Teals, Turquoise, Purples, Magentas, Lime & Olive Greens, Golds, Fuscia, Ruby, Garnet, and Black and White. I love anything with a "Damask" pattern on it especially in black and white or other contrasting colors. Anything with paisley pattern. I also ♥love to make jewelry. I have a fetish for Swarovski's, they are pricey but when you combine them with other simple beads it's amazing!!! And of course I ♥love to ♦bling! Anything sparkly,shiny,glittery, you name it, and I ♥love it. I have a thing for Key's. Who doesn't? I collect skeleton keys, "Homies" from the Quarter Machines at the Grocery Store, Salt & Pepper Shakers, Intresting ones, and fun ones. I also collect Peek-A-Pooh's from the quarter machines, and the fairys. I ♥LOVE CROWNS! Sillouette's, And I have a thing for owls & wings. Mushrooms, Fairy's! I ♥love mini things,(I think I mentioned that already) they are just so darn cute. I ♥love ribbons and charms, and little findings, etc.. I ♥love Photoshop, I ♥love foolin around and making graphics

⇒Note⇒ Wanna swap something. I can make a graphic for your page in exchange for something crafty. Just PM me, and let me know what you would like to give me in exchange :) Pssst..Checkout my wishlist ⇓ ;)

⇒⇒I am allergic to peanuts & pistacios and I can only wear sterling silver and gold earrings, anything else infects my ear. And Nickle pendants tend to give me a rash on my chest....no fun :(

As for dislikes, I'm not a huge fan of eggplant, toasted sesame seeds, lima beans, peas, green olives. I do not like cinnamon scented candles, or really any kind of spicy candle, Vanilla scented anything, or too fruity of a candle. I would prefer that you don't send folded paper.

TELEVISION:

I was never really in to TV, but then I got my DVR Box, and I've been sucked in to so many different shows. It's great! I can record everything, and watch when I have time.

-Newbies must have a completed profile. not just 3 sentences.

-You must send your swaps, and send them ON TIME!!

-Do not sign up for one of my swaps, if you know you will be on vacation, Moving, Delievering a baby, etc.. Doing so usually results in people getting there swaps late, or not at all.

-Take time on your artwork! I have no desire to swap with someone who puts no effort or thought into there swaps. This is a place for artists afterall.

-Communication is KEY!! Always communicate with your host and/or swap partner if you have any questions or concerns about your swaps.

-Always rate your Partner as soon as humanly possible. This helps let them know you received there swap. And it's just plain rude not to.

-You must have logged in a week before I assign partners.

-I am currently not able to Angel anyones swaps :(
