About Me

About hearts... I give hearts for swaps I feel show effort and thoughtfulness - not extras - I already have a lifetime supply of paper thanks to being a scrapbooker :)

IF YOU HAVEN'T RECEIVED A SWAP I OWE YOU, PLEASE PM ME BEFORE RATING. Please PM me and I'll RESEND ASAP.

I rate promptly. If you haven't gotten a rating from me, I probably haven't received your swap. Please PM me.

I'm a wife, mom and grandma in my late-40s. I take care of my chronically-ill dad. I enjoy crafting. Making and swapping crafts is a terrific creative outlet for me.

Favorite Books

Shogun, Chesapeake, The Thornbirds, Gone with the Wind, Lonesome Dove, biographies

Favorite Movies

A League of Their Own, When Harry Met Sally, The Right Stuff, Godfather Saga, The English Patient

Favorite Television

Project Runway, Scrapbooking, ER, America's Test Kitchen, Everybody Loves Raymond

Favorite Crafts

I enjoy trying new techniques. I'm dabbling in image transfers, watercolors and collaging on some of my ATCs. I like scrapbooking, crocheting, flower arranging and sewing.

Favorite things

I enjoy vintage/heritage swaps. I love flowers, deer, backyard birds and farm animals. I love bright colors like the color of sunflowers, gerbera daisies and poppies as well as vintage palettes. I love off-beat humor and nostalia.

Favorite Music

Eagles and Mozart.

Comment: Thank you so much for the very pretty ATC. I love how you made it profile based. It now has a prime spot in my collection. :) Thank you for the book pages (they are just what I was looking for!) and the fabric scrap, also.
Response: I was hoping you'd like the ATC and extras. By the way, the french book page was from a 1901 grammar book.

Comment: Beverly - I thought these were an extra special set of 5 ATCs, so carefully thought out to fit my profile. Loved the painted budgie!
Response: I am so pleased you liked the ATCs. The budgie was my favorite. I was so relieved it turned out to actually be recognizable!

Comment: Thanks for the ATC. I love all things Greek as I had alot of Greek friends at uni and spent alot of time in Athens in the holidays, so your ATC made me smile. Thanks for the extras and your lovely letter too. You should definitely get into the cardmaking as I find it so relaxing and everyone loves getting a handmade card. Gets you lots of brownie points with the family. Thanks again. :)
Response: I'm glad you liked the ATC. I would love to visit Greece! How wonderful it is to travel. I definitely should try making my holiday cards this year.

Comment: Hi - I love the ATC you sent!! Thanx for the extra goodies, too. I enjoyed your letter and read your profile. We have quite a bit in common. Have you read Ann Rules "Small Sacrafices"? It's about Diane Downs, the Mom who shot her three kids. I went to the trial and kept the two (living) children occasionally after she killed the third one. Email me if you get a chance. pjay@efn.org

Comment: Wow! I just got your envelope today. The way you packaged it all was ingenious! I look forward to using the mushroom stamp in the future. My little one was thrilled when we opened it. Maybe I'll see you again in a future stamp swap - they're very addicting!
Response: I'm glad you liked the stamp and the packaging. I agree stamp making is addictive and it would be fun to swap again.

Thank you for the 6Element ATC and for the lovely scraps of yarn. They are truly like fairy colors. I am going to pm you to ask some more about the technique you used with the matte gel.
