About Me


I'm a 37 years old, femeal and love crafts since I was a little girl... I have a wonderfull baby!!! he was born last may (2007), and he love softies (remember, he's a boy!) I was born in Angola and I live in Portugal since 6 years old. I LOVE and colect cats, anything with cats will please me! My special softies are sock pals, but I can do a lot of other things... I love swaps. (I'm economist, and I work as general manager, I also have a design company with my husband, but I only do the numbers...)

Favorite Music

R&B Pop Rock

Favorite Movies

favorite directors: scorsese, kronenberg, ... love scientific fiction! Matrix!!! Starwars!

Favorite Television

Favorite Crafts

CATS!!! love hand made softies, bags, bijoux (not earings or rings), pincutions, pins... Love fabrics (colorfull, with cats, small flowers, polka dots, rainbaws, ... ) Also love & collect ribbons (mostly embroidered), buttons, yarns, anything to make crafts, because is my hobbie! Love stationary items, mostly kaway and vintage, postcards, note pads, stickers, anything with cats or kaway! I´m allways happy with any kind of swaps, but if it includes a cat item, uhau, I'll increase my cat collection! Vintage stationary, hello kitty, chococat...

My Babies

I have a baby boy (born may 2007) - he is lovely!

And 2 lovely cats - a tuxedo - Nika (12 years); and a striped one - Canita (5 years). Puuuurrrrrr.( I had a beatifull and wonderfull black kitty - Whitie, but she missed since 4th july...)

I allways LOVE to receive

a package made with love and attention to my profile. sometimes in this swaps we only look at the rules, I love when a cat (any kind) is on my parcel! I allways put a lot of love, time and money on my packages, and I hate when I see my partner didn´t did it...

I LOVE to receive: something with cats!!! I´m a compulsive collector, and CATS are my favorite! anything! I don´t apreciate real cats in stationary, but if you can´t find anything else... ist´s ok! I love to receive fabric and ribbon with cats! now I also collect kaway stationary, love it!

the list: - cat softie (any material, any technique)

  • hand made stuff (cats, softies or something for me, like bags tote bags, ...)

  • craft materials - yarn (good quality and bold/bright colors), ribbons (embroidered, jackard ribbon, color and vintage, allways 1 yard minimum, please), buttons, FABRICS (I'm a member of "Fabric addictid"...), socks (I make sock babies), anything related with crafts...

  • stationary, stickers, postcards, anything related (but I don´t do scrapbooking or papel crafts...)

  • KAWAY stationary

  • Hello Kitty (anything, but if is badge, a fabric or stationary... great)

  • Chococat - I love it, and I can´t find it where I live...

  • tea, chocolate (to make hot chocolat or real bars...)

about the colours: now I´m in the mood for orange&yellow or purple&white... allways love pink, purple, blue, white, and the combo with pink (white, brown or black), and combo with blue (pink, brown, black)...

Not for me:

I don´t appreciate: - ATC´s - Dottee Dols - candles - earrings and rings - non quality items - erasers

wish list

Comment: I was debating between a three and a five, because this fabric wasn't imported from Japan, and that was very disappointing, however I did like the ribbon and the chocolate you sent, and I appreciate that. I just wish the fabric had been Japanese.

Hiya! :) I've recently taken part in a jar-swap and you were my partner there. :) And I thought I'd tell you I'm hosting a Dotee Goodies swap - in case you're interested. As I think the crafts supplies swapped there wouldn't be interesting for Dotee makers only. :) Happy swapping! Marta

Hey, just wanted to let you know I sent out your package today. Since it was going overseas I didn't want to wait until the last minute to send it. I hope you enjoy.
