I am a painter and sculptor by trade but I love crafting too.I love papier mache, making ATC's and assemblages.

I Pledge to rate please remember to rate me too. I make and swap items I would want to receive so I hope to have a good experience and receive the same from my swap partners. Please don't take my handmade, thoughtful swap and not return the favor.

I try my best to rate swaps the same day I get them, and I would appreciate you doing the same for me. I will PM all partners who haven't rated to make sure you don't forget to rate me. Not rating is rude and inconsiderate of my time and effort.

When you send me a swap, please make sure to list your user name and the name of the swap on your envelope and/or on a card inside the package so I will be able to rate the correct person.

I look forward to swapping with you all!!
