A Little Bit About Me

NOTE: If you do not receive a swap from me, please PM me before rating. I swap for the pur joy of it, and although I dont like to be flaked on, I am more concerned about giving than receiving. Anything that was created from the heart and a little time perusing my profile will get you a heart!

I have been scrapbooking traditionally for over 3 years now, digital and hybrid for a year. Altered art since I was a child.

I am a graphic designer, I design for several digital scrapbooking companies, own multiple companies, have three children, one is in the Navy and a wonderful husband of nearly 15 years. So needless to say I am very busy and wonder how I have time to do all that I do. I make time for crafting, as it is my passion.

Things that I Love

  • Ephemera of any kind
  • Old yellowed book pages
  • Metal parts (Steampunk Style)
  • Clock parts (small pieces)
  • Old keys, clock parts
  • Pieces of jewelery for making altered art
  • Navy items (my son is military)
  • Old theatre programs
  • Old yellowed dictionary pages
  • Books and pages in a foreiqn language
  • Fairies and Dragonflies
  • Mixed Media Artwork
  • ATC's of all kinds
  • Digital Collage Sheets
  • Shabby Chic style papers and embellies
  • Collage items of any kind

Favorite Colors: * Orange * Black * Hunter Green * Chocolate Brown

Things I Don't Care For

  • Gothic or Pagan theme or items
  • Least favorite colors: pink and teal
  • Cigarette Smoke
  • Junk from the bottom of your drawer unless it is your husbands junk drawer.
  • Not into bold and bright colors, papers, or themes.

Favorite Television

I am an HGTV Junkie, Design Star, House Hunters, and anything having to do with design.

Favorite Movies

My all time fave movie is "The Notebook" even my 17 year old (at the time) cried his eyes out.

My Children

I actively participate in swaps that involve my two children that are still at home:

Daughter, 15 years old. She is a songbird and sings at all the local events. She is a budding photographer and hopes to go pro. She collects all kinds of dog items, she especially loves border collies.

Daughter, 10 years old. She is a true tomboy. No pink for this girl, fave colors are black and red. She loves skulls, camoflauge, flames, kitty's. She collects poker theme items and has her own poker chips, cards and poker tour clock.

Steampunk Genre Swap Info

I love steampunk. This is my Steampunk persona:

You are the Explorer, the embodiment of steampunk’s adventuring spirit. For you, clothing should be rugged and reliable, and just as functional as it is attractive. You probably prefer khaki or leather, and your accessories are as likely to include weapons as technological gizmos. You probably wear boots and gloves, and maybe a pith helmet. Most of what you wear is functional, and if you happen to wear goggles people had better believe that you use them. In addition to Victorian exploration gear, your outfit probably includes little knickknacks from your various travels. Above all, you are a charming blend of rugged Victorian daring and exotic curiosity.
