About Me

I am married and have raised four children. Three sons and a daughter. I majored in art and my daughter followed in my footsteps but is much better than I am. I live in west-central Illinois across the river from St. Louis. I have a dog named Zoe that is spoiled rotten. I collected snowmen and santas but have to stop because I have no more room for them. I love doing crafts of any kind and have been doing them since I was about 9 years old.

ABOUT SWAPS; I always send my swaps out and try to send something extra off your profile. If you do not receive your swap in a normal amount of time please PM me and let me know before you give me a low rating. I am more than glad to work with anyone about swaps. All I ask for is Communication!!

If I have have not rated or thanked you for a swap, tag, wishes or RAK's please feel free to pm me and I will take care of it ASAP!

Favorite Music

I love celtic music and music from the 60's thru the 80's. My favorite cd's are Sons of Somerset, Enya, Charolette Church and also Bob Denver.

Favorite Books

I love to read except that I am a speed reader so a book will only last me 2-3 days. I like books of about any kind from a good mystery to romance. Some of my favorite authors are James Patterson, Dean Koontz, Johanna Lindsay, Nora Roberts and John Grisham.

Favorite Movies

Love comedies, romance, mystery and action movies. I especially like them if they have all those rolled into one.

Favorite Television

My favorite TV shows are Law and Order, CSI, Without a Trace, Criminal Minds and Nip Tuck.

Favorite Crafts

I love crafts of about any kind. My favorites are cardmaking, stamping and scrapbooking. I also love painting, decoupage, sewing, jewelry making and woodworking. I like leaded glass but it tears the heck out of your hands. My favorite colors are neutrals (greens,tans,browns) I also like golds, blacks, and reds.
