About Me

I love swaps! What a great excuse to be thoughtful and make someone's day. I also love meeting new people through the swaps I've done. I just found this site and I am so excited to get going.

Favorite Music

I like a little bit of everything; it really just depends on my mood. It'd probably be easier to list the artists I like: Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Josh Groban, All-American Rejects, Pink, Chris Cagle, Brad Paisley, Avril Lavigne, Leona Lewis, Matt Nathanson, etc.

Favorite Books

I love historical fiction, non-trashy romance novels, magazines, some realistic fiction and some non-fiction. Bottom line, though, I LOVE TO READ!

Favorite Crafts

Scrapbooking, cardmaking, scrapbooking, digital scrapbooking, scrapbooking, fabric wreaths, home decor, sewing...

My Free Time

I'm an 8th grade teacher for language arts and social studies. I love crafting, reading, being with friends and family, and traveling. Anything that lets me do one of those things will bring a smile to my face.

Some More Favorites

I don't really have a favorite color, I more just enjoy color combinations like pink/brown, turquoise/brown, blue/green, orange/turquoise, red/pink. Basically, I like bold, bright combos.There isn't a clear way to define my style, I tend to like clean simple decorations. However, sometimes I fall madly in love with some vintage stuff!

Things that Make me Happy

I love getting mail! I like things for my house that are easy to use to decorate like dish towels, placemats, table cloths, simple holiday crafts, etc. I love music and thought provoking quotes. I like note pads, post its, and new pens or pencils- that's the teacher in me talking. I like using fake flowers (either silk or paper), ribbons, and toole in crafts, fashion, cards, and scrapbooking.

Comment: Ugh, the mail cracked it in half on one side. I think it is meant-to-be that I'm not supposed to have this cd lol. But thanks for sending it again. That deserves several stars--but you only can get one. :)
Response: That is ridiculous! I don't know what the problem is! What other way could I send it to ensure delivery? If only you lived close enough to drive it to you...

Comment: Katie, I LOVED the card you sent your CD in... the flower was too cute! I also love your taste in music and I'm glad you were bold enough to include country tracks (I didn't include my favorite country songs because its not a very popular genre). I loved your explanations for why you chose those songs- your husband sounds like a sweet man, and a very lucky one at that.
Response: Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad you liked it so much- you always worry that you're sending a CD you put so much time into that the other person will hate. Thanks again!

Comment: Katie! Great scrapbook page! I have not seen the Grand Canyon and you picture of it is beautiful! The colors you used are great! Thanks so much for swapping! Kim
Response: There is only one way to describe the Grand Canyon- magnificent. And even that doesn't do it justice. I'm glad you enjoyed it and hope it works great for your scrapbook around the world!
