Hi everybody! It's a joyful, but also busy time of the year. I need some time for myself and for this reason I'm having a little break from Swap bot. But don't worry I won't be far, giving ratings or checking what's new here! I wish everybody a Merry Christmas!
I'm SalomĆ© and I'm into penpalling and swapping for years. Iām a very sensible and daydreaming girl, suffering from anxiety and high nervoussness. Iām 37 but I feel more like a teenager, I can have difficulties to control my emotions, I can feel sad or excited for little things and I have a rich inner world ! My main passions are craft and being outside in nature when the weather is good enough and nature beautiful (Spring, Summer. I love art journalling, scrapbooking or making cards, ATC anything as long as I can use ink sprays, inks, pigment powders (brushos, magicals by lindy's stamp gang), stamps and stencils. I also like writing diaries or journal photos, making photo albums of my summer adventures, penpalling, swapping, making penpal flipbooks.
At this time of the time of the year, I spend more time inside, crafting or reading. Halloween and Christmas helps me a lot to go through those seasons I really hate because of the bad weather, the cold, short days and nature going to sleep . Iām a Spring /Summer girl !
I live in a lovely little town in the country, in a house with a nice garden with my boyfriend. We have 2 cats : Pichu and Dana, a tamed cockatiel bird : Enya and 2 angora hamsters : the mum Daenerys and Leonardo her son who were born here on the 13th February.
Iām strict about what Iām looking for. I always send beautiful things and I think itās not hard. I donāt want ugly pieces of papers from your stash or things you received and didnāt like. I like beautiful embellishments flat or 3D, tags, paper sheets, paper/tissue flowers, enamel dots (in my favorite colorsā¦), die cuts (including those made by yourself with your cutting machine). NO SIMPLE FLAT STICKERS, EVEN JUST FOR A GIFT, I HAVE TOO MANY OF THEM !
For Christmas swaps : same crafts supplies than above but with christmas theme. My favorite christmas images/characters for cards or embellishments : Santa Clause, reindeers, Christmas tree but please avoid too childish designs. You can send me die cuts from your Christmas dies or stamped labels, tags even if they're not Christmas related but stamped in RED or DARK GREEN only. Favorite christmas colors : red and dark green, white. No angels or religious themes. NO STICKERS of any kind (I have too many and don't want more).
Entire washi tapes rolls rather than samples. Preferably with motives on them (flowers, animals etcā¦) but patterns are ok too but not too childish motives, kawaii is ok. No black I hate this color and dislike dark shades of colors. Favourite colors: pink, lime green, purple. I also like blue, yellow. Please no plain washi tapes without motives or patterns, they're boring.
Clear stamps and stencils
Anything with fairies and other magic creatures.
Anything with hamsters, including photos of yours if you have.
Touristy brochures and leaflets.
Touristy postcards : cities and landscapes. No museums or pieces of art.
My favorite colors are pink and lime green. Then comes light blue, purple, yellow
Colors I hate: black, red,orange, all dark shades of colors. Please, try to avoid sending me those colors as I don't use them and don't like them (black and orange for halloween is ok and red for Christmas)
NO SIMPLE, FLAT STICKERS!
Drinks and food
Themes I'm not interested in and donāt want: baby, children, too childish images, vehicles, food, wedding, hello kitty.
Nothing religious.
PLEASE, BE CAREFUL AND RESPECT MY DISLIKE LIST, I REGULARLY RECEIVE THINGS I DONāT LIKE AND ITāS FRUSTRATING !

Happy Birthday Month!
Just dropped your letter off at the post office! :D
Hiya SalomƩ! Thank you for the lovely surprise letter :D I will definitely be writing back. I'll let you know when the reply is on its way to you :)
Hello, it's me again. I just read your profile more carefully and see that you would like deli and freezer paper. Let me know what else you would like from the USA. Denise
Hi Salome, I'm your partner for the June Journal page swap. I live in California, USA. Is there any craft items that you want or need that you cannot find in France? Let me know and I can include it in my letter. Denise (midge)
Thank you for the Lord of the Rings postcards! There were so many and I love them all! Thank you :3
Hello, thank you for the swap I received today, I loved it and it was a really interesting letter to read - and I will have a play with the stamps when I am not feeling ill. x x
