About Me

I live in Queensland Australia, and am a full time uni-student, full time mum to a 7 year old boy. (He's 8 on the 30th October :). )

At the moment, I'm enjoying altered books and art journals.

I enjoy contacting with other people, especially about art-journalling related stuff, and that includes stamping, stickers, scrapbooking...the three SUPER S's!!!

I'm an absolute sucker for sci-fi, especially anything to do with Stargate Atlantis, and the actors therein.

I also game online - World of Warcraft to be precise...anything little around this would be welcome.

I'm trying to fill out this profile better than what it was...any hints, let me know

Favourites

Blue, purple and orange, hints of green and/or brown. (I do like other colours, red, yellow, pink, etc, but not too girly)

I like the vintage (but not frilly) style aswell, preferably masculine items if craft items.

Anything asian relating to scrapbooking/stamping/stickers, is really handy,

Postcards are something else I LURVE!!!

I've also taken to collecting blank greeting cards with unusual designs on them for getting the imagination going

What I'd like...

Stickers: cat, masculine, nautical, tribal, christmas, sea-life, animals, vintage, dragonflies, butterflies, wild cats, zodiac (I'm a Capricorn).

Stamps: as above, any backgrounds, scripts, patterns, vintage, no ladies please, Tim Holtz, Inkadinkado.

Inks: stamp pads, Tim Holtz

Paints: love paints...a small tube or acrylic or oil, watercolour or metallic

Paper: papers specifically, anything with cats, masculine, or even a vintage design. Patterned paper napkins, no plain colours or plain white. No advertising paper napkins. Even small scraps of scrapbooking paper is welcome...(at least 4x4" size please). No portraits of ladies please.

Asian: small asian influence craft items...stickers, stamps, papers.

Things like butterflies, dragonflies and rainbows are okay, but not too girly.

Handmade craft bits I can use in art journalling.

Stamped images

ATCs and inchies

Small cat/kitten plushes...no bigger than about 10cm/4 inches.

Postcards of any sort.

Blank cards of any sort (especially cats, asian designs, nice patterns).

Anything I can use in my art journalling. (ribbons, brads, doublesided tape, chipboard pieces, pens, sharpies, posca pens, shaped scissors)

Unusual food/drink/advertising labels or old receipts. (Yes, I said old receipts).

What I'd not like

Anything too feminine, especially portraits of ladies or dresses.

Dogs. I don't care much for dogs. Or pigs. Or ducks.

NO DISNEY, NO FAIRIES, NO PRINCESSES

No hair stuff, or makeup. No bath/smelly stuff.

What I can offer in return

I enjoy making things for people. You can expect something made with pride and love if you so chose in your profile.

Postcards, souveneirs from Australia.

Clip on koala

Stickers, papers, stamped images, note paper, beads, charms, decoupage pieces, buttons, brads, eyelets, paper pieces, ATCs, inchies.

The list is endless and really depends on where I go to check out the latest stuff.

My family

I have a 7 year old son (who turns 8 on 30th October) and is currently into Ben 10 and cats.

He sits down with me while I do my art, and he has his own book that he's started working in aswell.

He looks through what I've done, and picks something he'd like to try, and asks me to help him.

UPDATE:

I recieved a lovely envelope with some ATC sized cards and some gorgeous blue stickers. I've lost the envelope, and cannot recall who sent it so I can rate them. If you know who it is from, or if it's you, can you please let me know? Thanks.

Response: I've just sent you a mail letting you know that it was sent, and I've not recieved any correspondence before this rating. Coming from Australia, it does take a while for the item to reach its destination. Cheers.
