Getting Started

11/1/09 We just found out we had a death in the family.........so we will be traveling this week.I have some swaps due out this week, and will most likely be late because of this. I will tend to them as soon as I get back.This goes for ratings and PMs as well. Swap-bot is always a high priority to me, but family always comes first =) Thank you for your understanding.

I think the bot is having some things going on with profiles, so if mine looks funky, I apologize!!!

I am a Stay at home, homeschooling mom,to my daughter who is 9 going on 19....lol. We have one cat named Jack,a cockatiel named Baby,a dog named Boomer and several mice. My daughter and husband are huge animal lovers. me, not so much....lol.

Swap Notes

I enjoy doing private swaps, especially with those from other countries. If you would like to do one, just pm me =) I love to give hearts........however, please note, I do not give them for sending an item early. Here recently i have received alot of things that were thrown together and not taken there time on. I would rather have you take your time on something and have it be a little late, then get it way early and look thrown together. I also give hearts for profile extras. It means alot to me when I receive a package where I know someone has taken the time to read it. If you havent received from me,please be patient, especially if it is international(imparticularly Canada, i have had a package take like 8 weeks before!!!)I always try to contact my partners if they havent rated after a few weeks,but if I havent pmed you, please contact me before rating.

Also, I tend to get a little antsy about whether packages make it or not, so please rate promptly,especially if it is an international package. Thank you soo much =0)

Also a note to those I am swapping with: I am a beginner in alot of things. I have been doing paper crafting for years, and am trying to expand a little.Please keep this in mind when receiving your items(esp if sewing is involved.....lol). Please be sure you check your postage, i have had quite a few postage due swaps lately.........

Comment: Wow, I finally received something from overseas! You did a great job 'narrowing down' from my profile - some of my favorite colours on the postcard - and it arrived in fairly good condition (collages always take a bit of a beating, which is why I design all my postcards to look 'distressed' in the first place!) Thanks again, Judith
Response: Im glad it made it, look for another swap soon , Thanks for being my swap partner =)

Sorry to hear that someone in your family has died. Anyway, it's spelled "matryoshka" :)

pumpkinniki on Nov 3, 2009:

I was looking forward to another fall block round. Sorry for your loss. Would you mind me hosting a continuence?

dustypenny on Oct 28, 2009:

Looking forward to your rating on the Christmas ATC swap. I really hope you liked what I sent. Thanks!

TC on Oct 16, 2009:

LOL, when I saw that Cowboys purse on your wishlist, I knew what I could do with those two little bits of Cowboys fabric I had left. (I had made a Cowboys baby sling, if you can believe that. ha ha) Glad it got there okay and you like it.

cleopatra on Oct 7, 2009:

Hi !

Oooo-eeee, I have all your stuff. Got quite a bit that I think you'll like. Now just to put it all together and send it off.

:)

omgz on Oct 5, 2009:

wait, I think it was Barber that was hurt. LOL. I can't remember and im not looking it up.. and my BF is too busy watching Farve kick his old teams ass for me to ask. haha. Oh well! They should have got that touchdown!

omgz on Oct 5, 2009:

They should just put in Demarcus "disgusting" Ware. I know he was hurt, but they had to go all of... 3 inches? He could have hammered that home! with the entire team on his back.. he's a monster! lol.

Hi~! You're one of my partners for the My Swap Bot Profile is a little lonely... swap~! How are you this awesome day? I love your little cupcake graphic, I found a store between my home and work that gives away free cupcakes daily. It is taking all my will power to not eat one a day. Hahaha~ My family also has a dog and a cat and my mom feels the same way about them as you do. Haha, but they seem to sense that and flock to her even more. It's hilarious (for me)...poor mom. Ohh~ You should look up MONOKURO BOO, it's a monochrome piggy duo. I'm sure you'll love them. Your 90's music list is perfect I agree with every single group you listed. :D

Wow! What a great list of likes.. I love the cowboys!! annnnd.. I loooooove food with faces.. Specially cupcakes! My favorite thing i've EVER seen is a cupcake yelling "IMMA EAT CHOO!" I want it tattoo'd on me. lol. Almost every icon I have saved on my computer is a food with a face! Tons of shirts with it, and I even draw postcards .. Right now Im doing a series of toast in funny situations. My boyfriend finds them hilarious.. Like the toast with the toaster jumping on a trampoline! Have a great day!! - Issy.
