Favorite Crafts
ATC's, machine embroidery, sewing, crocheting, clay, beading. I like to try most any craft. I am always looking for some new technique to try.
Favorite Books
When I retire I am going to read (and craft!) all the time! Not much time now! I try to squeeze a book in here and again.
Misc. Likes
Apparently I am a craft-a-holic (or just a hoarder) but I can't seem to pass up on craft things on sale or at garage sales. Before I throw things out, I find myself saying "Hmm...can I use this on an ATC?" So, if you are worried about me liking anything you send me - don't! I love getting inspiration from other's work and bits and bobs from everywhere!
I really like all colors. I like black as an accent color for anything. Rainbows (traditional or non-traditional) are cool, too.
I am really partial to denim - not sure why. (Maybe its a baby boomer thing.) I never seem to be able to get rid of blue jeans. I have visions of making an awesome denim quilt when I retire!
My birthday is (and my grandmother's was, too) on Valentine's Day - so I am also partial to hearts of any kind!
I love anything music related when it comes to crafts - stickers, paper, etc. I have bought sheet music at yard sales to use for ATCs but frequently can't bring myself to cut it up!
Favorite Music
All kinds - I am a digital music teacher so I like to listen to most any kind of music just to be aware of it. My husband and I listen to country music most of the time at home.
As I mentioned before I love anything crafty, homemade or store bought that is music related!
Not favorites...
I am pretty accepting of most everything - even the things on this list - but if you are looking for things I am not really into - here some are:
occult, horror, nudity, wicca, flakers!
But - I am happy getting most anything - even these things (well... except the flakers!!!). To each his/her own!

Thank you for hosting the USA ATC Series. It was lots of fun!
Thanks so much for finishing my Jam ATC
Wow! You've done 508 swaps and still have a perfect "5"? You go, girl!!!
On the recycled zentangle ATC swap: The hardest part for me was that the interesting boxboard was all glossy, and the only pens I had that would work on it were ballpoint pens. Did you have that problem with the Mike & Ike box you had in the example? Maybe I should have tried buffing it with sandpaper or something.
This is a bit late, but thank you soooo much for the awesome postcard you created using Swap-bot words that you sent as part of the "Thank You Swap-bot" Swap. Your kind note made my day! Users like you truly make Swap-bot great!
Thanx for being such a Great Part of SB & LLL!!! Please take the time to check in the LLL~Location, Location, Location Group and see who is SWAPBOTTING in your area! ;-) Its open to all SwapBotters so feel free to invite anyone to check it out! Have a GREAT DAY ;-) & Happy Swapping! Blessings, cc
Thank you so much for the extra nice ATCs you sent me for A & B in our private swap. You sure packed a lot of info onto those little cards! Hearts to you.
HEY, I SENT U an invite to the new LLL, Location group, I think you will enjoy it ;-)
It's totally alright about the rip in the envie. It wasn't your fault at all, I just wondered if something had fallen out. The fuzzy stuff didn't hurt the ATC at all, so all's well. :) It was just so strange I had to share it!!!! And I just realized I received things from you for two different swaps and rated you without realizing it was the same person, you! Anyways, thanks for the swaps! :) Have a great summer!
Thanks for the great A & B ATCs for the Music A-Z. Morrison loved them :) Glad we could help each other out with missing cards :D
