Hello everyone!

I am from Maine and have lived here all my life. I love it here and can't imagine living anywhere else! I am currently employed as a desk jockey and attend college part-time. I think I may be a student for the rest of my life just because I enjoy learning so much. I spend a lot of my free time crafting, especially during the winter.

I love making ATCs. I just started making them a few months ago and I am hooked. I mostly do collage ATCs but I occasionally experiment with other mediums. I have recently begun making mail art items like charms and tags.

In the past, I have done full-sized (5x7 and larger) pieces in colored pencil or pastels. I have done a lot of self portraits. I will be taking a painting class in the spring semester at college, so I may start making little ATC paintings soon :)

I like a sorts of ATCs, really. It's mostly about what catches my eye or what moves me. I especially like ATCs with Victorian images, nudes, cards with offensive language or off-collar humor, and cards that feature fairies or butterflies. Heavily embellished ATCs are also good in my book.

I prefer to do 1:1 ATC trades versus group trades. I like to see what I am trading my card for and to trade with someone who wants my card equally as much as I would like theirs. I am not really into blind ATC trades unless I have swapped with someone before and I am familiar with their work.

For my non-ATC items, I will trade for pretty much anything including art supplies. If you have something interesting to offer, and you want something that I have made, message me and maybe we can trade!
