About Me

Most of my ATCs are hand drawn. I don't own cool stamps or have any cool embellishment things. I am not very good at the whole vintage collage type thing, either!!

** I love sending and receiving mail so I will not be one of those flakers! If you didn't get my swap I need to know, cause it is lost! :) **

ALSO, sometimes I rate my packages and I guess I don't save it or something because I go back to find that it isn't rated. If I haven't rated you on something you sent me... PLEASE let me know!

I am a mommy of three! I live in the middle of nowhere Nebraska, USA. I am a pretty laid back person. I love getting postcards of all kinds, especially funny ones! I also enjoy the different stamps from all over the world, my USA stamps are pretty boring!

I am generally a frugal gal, I love learning how to repurpose things and find new ways to save money!!

Some day I would like to start a notebook/journal that is sent all around the world and is returned to me when it is finished. I think it would be a fun keepsake for my children!

Things I love...

Big Bang Theory, Sharpie Pens (for penpaling), Glitter, Robots, Buttons/Pins, Bottle Top Jewelry, Hair Pins, Zombies, Frogs, Monkeys, and Owls, Twistable Crayons, Earrings (unique and nickel free), Notepads and Papers, Almost everything on ETSY, Chocolate, Gummi Candies, Post Cards, Magnets, Pretty Mail, Pink and Green

I like to...

Work with special needs children, Draw and Color, Spend time with the kids outside, Sing, Go to the mailbox, Paint my fingernails, Doodle, Try new crafty ideas I see in magazines or online, Watch thriller movies and documentary films, Play Scrabble

I want to...

Learn how to sew, Make a sock monkey, Go fossil hunting, Travel to other countries, Make a little difference in the world, Make a big difference in children's lives, Own an animal rescue farm, Have my own zoo!

Other Interests...

Science, Fossils, Space, Evolution, Nintendo, Pinup Girls, All forms of music, Reading, Shopping, Free stuff, Psychology, Automobiles (especially 1960-1970s Volkswagen), Birds, Photography, Watercolors

Comment: Did you send me a baby goat PC with the saying Kisses from the Kids on front for this swap? After some investigative work, I am assuming it is you based on the word "Omaha" in the postal cancellation and your profile says you are in Nebraska, but there was no But thank you! :-)
Response: yes, that was me! I forgot to put my name on all of them, I guess! Sorry, I have been pretty scatter brained lately with all the kids sports and homeschool stuff!

Response: Thank you! I hope it was good enough for THE swap! I was so worried about what to make, I tried so many different and new things and none of them turned out so I just fell back on something I really enjoy!

Comment: YAY! You rock! :) Thanks so much for your adorable envelope (and stamp!). The whales are soooooo cute; you did a great job! I loved the cancer ribbon ones, too; means something personally :) And you told me about Lewis and Clark stuff - my favorite, LOL! I actually have been wanting to go to your town to see what you mentioned! I will just follow the Platte from Denver, hehee. Where are your flood pictures? :) Yup, I have been to NE; only really driving across the west part through Chadron (and spent the night in Scottsbluff), but I want to go to your area and to Lake McConnaughy (sic)! Your ATC was GREAT; you are quite the artist. That was actually the very first ATC I have ever even seen, so it was interesting (and imagine remind me of me, heheheheh). Thanks for everything :) Take care
Response: I am so glad you liked everything! I was a little worried I didn't make the envies good enough for the swap! I have a lot of pictures of the flood, maybe if I can find them I'll send them to you :) Hope we cross swapping paths again!
