Dislike

I am a Torah observant christian Believer...i keep Kosher, shabbat and Levitical feast days So...Nothing gorey or evil or halloweeny, no santa or easterbunny (: I'm ok with goth if that is your artistic style I just don't like scary or evil. That being said, I do appreciate whatever you come up with.

I try to go above and beyond

I try to send the best package I can come up with. Every project is done with all the love and artistry I can create for you. I send what I would like to receive and go for the hearts. I understand we are all at different artistic levels and I do give hearts even if you don't add extras if I feel and see a ton of effort to make it special for me (nice notes, decorated envelope, pretty stamp etc)

Comment: Very Nice to learn more about you and what a beautiful l little book. I Sometimes we need to be able to give more hearts!!!
Response: I'm glad it got there safely (: I had a lot of fun with this project. My family was astounded because the helped me save the rolls and could not fathom how the project would turn out lol. My complaint is that I had to set up a table in the kitchen to lay all the paper and blingy out. It was a lot more work than anticipated but it was fun. Thank you for the kind words and heart<3

Comment: Fantastic! I hope you made one like it for yourself...terrific... Thanks so much... Love the ocean and am intrigued by that pearlescent paint...thanks again for everything...wonderful swap!
Response: Yay! Glad you like it. I used Jo Sonja pearls. The first time I used them I thought there was something wrong because I couldn't see anything...they are so pale. They get darker as they dry. Fun to explore different types of paint (: yes I made one for myself too. I usually make several of the same cards for the practice and to have a copy (:
