I enjoy spending time with my hubby watching movies, talking or working on our home based business. I plan to retire and play full time in 8 years thanks to this wonderful business.

I'm thrilled to be here at SwapBot, I've met lots of wonderful swappers and recieved LOADS of amazing goodies. The people here have been good to me and I'm always THRILLED to find a new package in my box.

Dislikes

A few things I DO NOT want in swaps:

Cat Anything (Not a cat person)

Teas (but I do like the wrappers they come in)

Food (Can't always get my mail the day it arrives)

Cloth (I have no use for it, sorry)

Experimenting With

Altered Books and Journals!!! I would love to try a Round Robin swap. I would also appreciate any type of collage material that comes my way.

Curious about Whimsy Jars, I love anything whimsical so this might be interesting.

Liquid Water Color- Still trying to find some of this stuff. I would also like to play with Water Color Crayons (send me your little stubby left overs LOL)

Eyelets- I'm looking for a good eyelet setter... maybe some day.

I just read about a background technique using BeesWax- so some BeesWax would be a great thing to try out.

How I Rate

I thought I should add this since I've recently had a rash of flakers & no sends, so if you're one of "THOSE" here's what you can expect:

Three weeks from the send date I will contact you to let you know I haven't received your swap. If you reply and stay in contact with me I will give you a fair rating when the swap arrives (I do take into consideration you being in contact with me and will most likely still give you a 5 once the item arrives, so long as it meets the other swap requirements).

Four weeks after the send date if I've heard nothing from you, you will receive a 1. I DO understand that life happens and I'm ALWAYS willing to change a rating if I receive your swap.

For those who DO send on time, I ALWAYS give 5's so long as you sent me the correct swap LOL. If you send me ANYTHING above and beyond you'll get a Heart as well.

I ALWAYS give Stars to coordinators, I mean seriously, if she came up with an idea for a swap and I like it enough to sign up... she's earned her Star.

Comment: I'm rating you a 3 because you basically cut out a picture and pasted it onto an ATC-sized piece of card stock. Sorry, but that isn't creative or artistic. I checked with the swap hostess and she told me I was entitled to rate you a 3. Next time please think more about the spirit of the swap and put more effort in.
Response: I'm very sorry you didn't like the card I made for you. I didn't realize we were being rated on artistic talent. I'm sorry I didn't respond to this sooner, I've meant to because I wanted to offer to make another card for you if you please.

Carolyn, This is a great ATC! Thank you so much. I love the painted over text background. Everything is very nice. (and you don't have to send another one--this one is great!) Thanks for swapping. Happy Holidays, Vee
