Favorite Crafts

I am a widow ... my husband died 2 1/2 years ago. My kids are all grown ( I am 81 years old) and I have grandkids and great grands. I have been doing altered books for several years now, and I love it ! Tried ATC's and fabric postcard swaps and they were fun too. I have been a knitter for years. Also like to crochet and quilt. I do not consider myself to be an artist but I love to try....I recently became interested in drawing...especially faces. I belong to Gluebots on Yahoo. I have journaled for years, and now have fun adding artistic touches to the pages. Have any of you tried drawing Zentangles? If you haven't...look it up on Google. You don't have to be an artist to have fun with them.

Comment: Before I start lobbing you, remember to write clearly what swap you are sending. I really love the atc, it is really creative. How you combine the theme of the stamp and what you made out of the book page. And thank you for the stickers, all such which I really like.

Comment: Ho--lee cow!!! You deserve a zillion hearts! Marilyn, you are my new best friend. The postcards, fibers, old button card, stamps, papers and thingies and THE BIRD!!! Did you make the bird?? What a lovely box to come home to after a long day. I'm gonna have to go through it again just to be sure I saw everything and to just enjoy it all again. Thank you so, so much. I am honored to be able to give you your first rating on Swap-bot. May you have many more. I hope you got as good a box.
