I'm taking a small break from hosting/joining swaps. I will log in to rate or answer messages!

I'm Rebecca and here's a little bit about me:

Purple is my favorite color ... and I can't seem to get enough glitter, lots and lots of glitter.... and hearts. l LOVE hearts!!! Purple glittered hearts all day!!! 💜

If you're a super fan of purple like me, join my swap group dedicated to the color purple!

Happily Ever Purple

I do like other colors too: blue, green, pink, silver, black, tie-dye and earth tones.

I'm drawn to anything celestial: the moon, the sun, stars, planets, comets, galaxies...

I love sending and receiving fun, "happy mail" and love to create mail art! I love stickers, note cards, memo sheets, markers, pens, handmade envelopes and stationary.

I collect post cards of all kinds. I have sooo many. Anything and everything goes for me, but I definitely appreciate postcards that are unusual and unique. I occasionally swap postcards on postcrossing and am new to postfun.

I love playing card games (poker, spades, cribbage and euchre are some of my favorites), all kinds of board games and party games, or just hanging out with my adult children. They're the best!

My daughter is also on Swap-Bot. She's a great & fun swapper and one of the coolest people on the planet @MollieLolli 💚

I'm always on the lookout for unique decks of playing cards, tarot cards, gypsy and crystal ball themed items, crystals, geodes and pretty rocks.

I love being in nature among the trees, flowers and mushrooms. 🌲🌻🍄

I love all animals, but especially cats and dogs (including big cats, wolves, coyotes, etc.)

I love all woodland creatures, dragonflies, butterflies, hummingbirds and bumble bees. And I am slightly obsessed with elephants and sea turtles.

If I get to the beach, I will pick up any treasures I can find: beach glass, beach pottery, beach marbles, shells and rocks.

I love severe weather, especially thunderstorms, lightning, hail and tornado watches/warnings. I love the energy severe weather brings!

Crafting and making art is relaxing to me and I like trying new things. I am most into painting rocks, alcohol ink paintings, acrylic paintings, artist trading cards (ATCs), resin art, embroidery, slow stitching, bargello needlepoint, magnets, and handmade jewelry. I've tried crochet and knitting, but it's still a work in progress.

If I'm not crafting, I'm cooking or baking. If you have any "tried and true" recipes, please send them my way. If you're looking for any, let me know! I'll see if I've got a good recipe just for you.

If I'm not doing any of the above, I'm probably listening to music or Netflixing, drinking coffee ☕ and petting my 80lb black lab!!! :)

I am a prompt sender and rater. I like to give hearts on every swap I receive because... why not? I don't understand people who are stingy with these.

I also like to write something personal about the swaps I receive when rating. I want to make sure my partner knows how much I appreciate them sending me something special.

I always respond to comments on my ratings, even if there is no comment. :D

My dog is everything to me. He is a 5-year-old black lab named Takoda. He is also a certified therapy dog. He sheds, A LOT. While I really try extremely hard not to let fur get in your swaps, sometimes it happens. If you are the lucky recipient of my dog's fur, please take it as a "hello" from him and accept my apologies.🖤

Below is a one-of-a-kind handmade postcard puzzle which was given to me as a gift from my two kids. Each postcard (12 total) came in the mail separately over a span of a few days, and each has a special message on the back. It was so fun putting it together! They truly are the best!

I am not a fan of "fake" vintage ephemera, anime, harry potter, scrapbooking supplies, shabby-chic, whimsy, goth, fantasy, patriotic themes or swaps containing tea samples or food.

Please no religious, political, scary/gore/macabre or violence type items or images, especially guns. I am not easily offended, but these things are not for me. Thank you!
