Love to garden and decorate. I collect old brooches, flowerfrogs, milk glass, and vintage postcards.my dogs are a white english bull, a black pug,and a tiny red pomeranian and I also am owned by a fat red cat named Boo and a beautiful ragdoll cat named Baby.I drink coffee and tea also wine. I love chocolate, anything vintage or victorian,photos of dogs. I like dragonflies, and anything with birds on them..I also collect unusual buttons to use on the purses I make, for thrift store swaps , vintage brooches and pins,charms, anything with birds on them, unusual salt and pepper shakers, things I can use on ATCs, and if you are outside the US something cool that I would not find here.

Favorite Crafts
I spend most of my free time with my ATC and Skinnys.creations now into art journaling,knitting, felting and occasionally Art dolls. I also like to read, bake and cook.

Rating
RATING SWAPS This may seem picky to some,but this is how I rate swaps. I only give hearts for the quality of the work and if the rules of the swap are followed. Getting extras are a bonus and always appreciated, but do not guarantee a heart.

Hi, your awesome Stained Glass ATC is now on you tube, you can get there through my profile, Hugs, Candace
Hey there ~ hope you're enjoying the winter days... I'm wondering whether my Doodle-Zoo #1 ATCs have made it to you safely... It's been a while since I sent those... Best wishes =^.^=
Welcome to the hand drawn/painted ATC group. I am so looking forward to getting the chance to swap with you. I do love steam punk. I hope you find many enjoyable swaps with us. Happy swapping.
I'll swap with you any time! The shrine was so perfectly to my taste, and so carefully made....loved it! Did you choose a specific saint, and if so, who? Or is it meant to be Mary / Maria? At any rate, it's beautiful. Thank you!
Just wanted to let you know I started a Zetti Art doll swap. You can find it under Doll swaps. Thanks in advance if you join!
Hi! I received your pendant today, its so pretty! I love it! Thank you so much! Maria Isabel Group Tag: The Swapping Artist
Thank you for the ribbon and lace for the WTA Chunky Book artis group. Can't wait to use them.
Hi Mary, Thank you so much for the great "paper"envelope for the Somerset WTA. I can't wait to put everything to good use and now I have no excuse to not try a matchbox. Thank you.
Hello, Mary. I just mailed off your cigar box this AM, and last night, AFTER packing it up, I realized I didn't tell you which swap this was. I know it should be obvious, but just in case you are like me and can't remember which group swap it was, it was Crafting Queens Altered Cigar Box swap hosted by Rye. I did include a note - just left this info out. Oh, and I guess I had you mixed up w/ someone else who liked Tim Holtz stuff a lot, so please just disregard the comments about Tim Holtz stuff, too. I have read so many profiles lately I guess I am just addled! Sorry!
