I am a thirty...something...year old mother of two beautiful girls. I am a full-time working mother and wife who loves to craft for relaxation. I love antiques, art, music and the outdoors.

I enjoy swapping with other artists and crafters. It's always fun to come home from work and find a special package waiting for me in the mail box.

I post my swaps on Flickr, (sometimes before they are shipped), so if you like to be surprised, please keep this in mind.

I'm a rocker. I love hard rock, classic rock and alternative hits from the 80's.

American Idol, of course! I am totally addicted.

I love vintage-artsy-style items and natural materials.

I enjoy making and receiving vintage/artsy style ATCs, inchies, journals and altered art.

I also like to make and receive Zetti style ATCs.

My favorite color is green, and I I love all earthtones.

I put a lot of time and effort into my swaps, and I like to receive swapped items that have been well made and nicely packaged.

My favorite hobbies include paper crafts, scrapbooking, card making, quilting, gardening and genealogy.

I also love to collect vintage buttons and use them in my art.
