About Me

UPDATED 11/15/09
I am so exhausted lately & it is taking me a bit longer to get my swaps out. I promise to try very hard to get them out ASAP, but sometimes LIFE HAPPENS & it just isn't possible. Thank you for understanding. `````````````````````````````````````````````` I am an EXHAUSTED PREGNANT Air Force wife of 2 fabulous kids! 1 teen boy & 1 pre-teen girl! I AM DUE IN MAY 2010!!!! I love to read, and to craft! I LOVE photography & have taken some great photos too! I am originally from Alaska, but we are currently living in Florida. It was a huge culture shock for this Alaskan Girl! I tried to be a big city girl, but I am country at heart! i love homemade ANYTHING! My favorite colors are Greens, Blues, Purples. I have 3 dogs that compete with the kids for run of the house - sometimes they win... I'm not proud of that! LOL! (Yes, That means that there is a possibility of dog hair on some swapping things. I am always very sorry & embarrassed by the dog hair. Just be aware of it & let me know if you are allergic so I can triple/quadruple check for hair) I love to laugh! I married my dear husband because he made me laugh every day!
You can learn so much more about me by checking out my facebook, or my blog - the links are above.

Favorite Music

I love all music! I believe that Music is good for the soul! I mostly listen to Country, but my favorite band EVER is Flogging Molly! I also listen to opera (Charlotte Church), classical (mozart), hip hop (ummmm, no idea of names, so I guess not a favorite, but I'll still listen), pop & metal! I love my XM radio - the best investment ever!!! Oh, and I LOVE LOVE LOVE French music! and ambient music.... I culd go on foreer, but you get the idea! I love music!

Favorite Crafts

I love to sew! I do not quilt though, I am horrible at it! I do clothes mostly, I have made a few stuffed animals too. I also Crochet and knit, but I can't say that I am super awesome at either of those either. I love the sugar & Cream yarn to make washcloths with, it's so soft! I would love to learn how to make socks, but I am not very good with a circular needle. (lessons anyone?) I scrapbook and stamp too.-- It has been forever since I did either, but I love to do it!!! I love papers and fibers, but dear god send me ideas on what to do with them to cause after such a long break away from it i will need them! I love to TRY to bead too, but sadly it is more like collecting beads than actually doing anything with them. And I am DYING to know what an ATC is - I mean I know what it IS, but I've never seen one before. They sound FUN!

Favorite Movies

I am a HUGE Kevin Smith fan & love all of his movies. My favorite movies are comedies cause i love to laugh. I am not a huge romantic, so movies like Sleepless in Seattle and When a man loves a woman are lost on me. I like scary movies too, and action ones as well. I loved the Resident Evil movies, and the Transporter series too!

I don't have TV of any kind, and only watch the news at work, but when I had TV I loved Bones, House, Law & Order SVU, Friends re-runs, Wizards of Waverly Place (uhhh, yeah... sad huh?), Hannah Montana (I know, I know), and Dexter was the best Show EVER!

Favorite Books

I love love love to read! I read all sorts of stuff. I read all of the twilight series & was pleasently suprised that there was actually some substance to it. I like Nora Roberts and Julie Garwood too. The most interesting author I have read recently is Tom Holt - his stuff is oddly entertaining. Garden Spells by Sarah Addison Allen is one of my favorites. I HATED Julie & Julia by Julie Powell, And couldn't finish Eat, love Pray, or Three Cups of Tea.

Comment: Hi, Sharon! I got your adorable ATC today. Don't worry, it's both creative and pretty well made, esp. considering it's your first! My only feedback would be to make sure you glue down your layers all the way to the very edge (as in the strip you ran across the card near the top), unless it's part of the effect that some edges should be loose, like the waves. (Which look great, BTW.) Also, you may want to practice matching patterns; some of the stars on that strip got cut in half, and that looks a little ... confusing? (Like, I'm confused about whether that was a deliberate choice or not.) But those are pretty small matters, really; overall you did a very nice job, and I hope you'll go on to make many more ATCs. :) Hope these comments were helpful, and thank you again for your cute card! Happy swapping!
Response: Thanks so miuch for the great feedback! I was debating on whether or not I liked the mismatched stars... i think not though, so next time I will match them up better. Thanks again!
