About Me

Hi, I'm the mother of two wonderful kids. I work full time and do crafting as a hobby/stress reliever. I like making greeting cards and do a lot of origami. The main materials I work with are paper, paper and more paper. Did I mention I love paper?

Favorite Crafts

Card Making, Origami, I've just discovered the world of ATC's, Altered Art, Collages, Paper Mosaics and would like to do more with this. I would love to receive little bits and pieces, charms, ephemera, things I can use on my new found interests. I have an ETSY store under the name of shutupandfold.

I've just finished my first Dotee doll and matchbox So there's another craft/addiction to add to my list.

Favorite Music

I like all types of music, rock, country, blues (not really a specific type but a song that stays in my head) Some of my favorites songs are by Carley Simon, Joni Mitchell, Carole King, Cass Elliot. I also like the Eagles, Beach Boys, Fleetwood Mac, Beatles, music from the 60's and 70's (I'm old!) Joss Stone, K.T. Tunstall

Favorite Books

A bit of everything. Biographies, Poetry Collections, Historical Fiction, How To Craft Books - some of my favorites (I'm reading now) are Peony In Love, Girl with the Pearl Earring, Empress Orchid. The Other Boleyn Girl. I like doing Puzzles, Mazes, Sudoku, Logic Puzzles. Reading Comics - Peanuts! - Calvin and Hobbes - For Better Or Worse. Trivia and Useless Information (Could come in handy someday, You never know!)

Favorite Movies

I like old Movies, Mysteries, Dramas, Romantic Comedies, The Godfather I and II, Pretty Woman, The Sound of Music, Kids movies: Finding Nemo, Beauty and the Beast, Cars, A lot of Disney!!! and Pixar

Favorite Television

Reality TV - Top Chef, Project Runway, Top Model. Comedies and Dramas - ER, Law & Order SVU, Brothers and Sisters. The Food Network, HGTV, Discovery, TLC, Bravo, CNN, I Love Lucy and all those old reruns of the past.

Things I'd like To Get

Charms, Beads, Buttons, Cabs, Brads, Ribbons, Fibers, Tiny Little Things, Etc.

Exotic Papers - doesn't have to be from another country (would be nice) but maybe from another time or place or an interesting or different design or with a local flair.

Scrapbooking Supplies

Ephemera

All Things Handmade

Stickers, Die-cuts, Chipboard, Self-Stick ScrapBook Embellishments And Deco-Tape.

Comment: The cards are great, I love how they're connected. They're among my all time favourites of ATCs I've received. I actually don't know what the print on the red sash says, I'm glad it's something good :) All the extra bits are lots of fun too. Thank you!
Response: I'm so glad you liked the cards. I had fun working on them The sash means to be always getting better and better, to strive for the best in everything you do.

Comment: Wow!!! I can't thank you enough for the beautiful cards! They are so unique, and creative, and I can't wait to use them! And thank you for all of the great foamies! I think I will enjoy them more than the kids; I love creating things with them. I even have every foamie Christmas set they have made the past several years. I'm addicted! Thank you again! :)
Response: I'm glad you liked the cards. I had fun making them, though I was concerned that it was a bit too much origami. I'm glad to know that someone else is a foamie addict too!

Welcome to my Beginner Dotee Swap! I hope you have a GREAT experience!

TEST Thanks again. I am looking forward to my origami order. The little girl cards will be for my 3 granddaughters for Christmas with money I put inside for them. It's always hard to buy for them the older they get so now I like to have a little something that will seem special in the process:) I should have gotten a frog too. Maybe next time.
