**********POSTCARDS************************
PLEASE WRITE LEGIBLY! It is very frustrating when I have to decifer the message. This means running letters together, rushed handwriting, etc. PLEASE PUT YOUR RETURN ADDRESS! This is because the postmark is rarely clear enough for me to tell where the card was sent from.

******DISLIKES/PLEASE DON'T SEND***********
ATC's I am not a fan of digital atcs. I am not a fan of hand drawn/painted atc's unless you are good and a true talented artist! 'Good' meaning that you have been doing it for awhile and it comes out better than children's artwork-LOL! Good means that you have gotten plenty of nice comments about your work over the years, not just from your family. I can't draw worth beans, so I don't subject my partner to it. However, if you are a true talented artist, I will love it, so please don't hesitate to send me your LOVELY HD/HP artwork!
I dislike most abstract art, sorry.

Notepads/Memo Sheets/Sticky Notes

Magnets(unless it's a cute animal or floral/gardening related)
slippers/socks/gloves (unless handmade)
religious items, crosses(angels okay)
tiny stickers/reward stickers/ cheap looking stickers
foam stamps and stickers
erasers or highlighters
Disney items
preservatives/sucralose and other artificial sweeteners
lavendar scent
===================================
**********TEA===========================
No LOOSE tea please, unless you are sending me a full container that is unopened and factory sealed. Please send tea in it's wrapper so I know what the ingredients are, and the brand name in case I want to buy something that I've tried and liked.
I mostly like black spicy teas. My favorite is Good Earth Original Sweet and Spicy-- love it cold, too.

About ratings.....I rate on the quality of your work and if you have put time, effort and love into it and whether it fulfilled swap requirements. I give hearts if I think the overall swap was extra special, NOT just because extra items are tucked in. I don't expect extra items. If your ATC is basic, you may not get a heart just because you sent extras.
I am pretty easy going on the deadlines. If you need more time, just let me know! I understand that life gets in the way and would rather wait and get a well made item than get something that was quickly made.

National Squirrel Day
NATIONAL SQUIRREL APPRECIATION DAY!
I here to warn you about natures most unknown deadliest animal
Hiding in plain sight, as cute fluffy clowns, the Ninja Squirrels are behind untold amounts of stolen peanuts and tipped over birdseed feeders.
It has been a long believe the Ninja Squirrel are trained at birth. But some scientists don't want to believe a squirrel can go from this
to this
While many still think the Ninja Squirrel is an urban myth, there seams to be an uptick of this telltale mark that have many more people become believers
I'll leave you with this proof, caught on a hidden camera ...

2)How the Raven Brought Fire(This is a Native American story. I had a copy of it growing up and loved reading it. I probably have it somewhere)
Have a great Fairy Tale Day and Enjoy!
