About Me

I am married and I have 3 daughters and 8 grandchildren. We have a dog, Rigel, who is part chocolate lab and who knows what else. I am a quilter and I love all kinds of art.

Favorite Music

I like lots of different music and still love the oldies but goodies. I love gospel music and worship music.

Favorite Books

Mysteries are my favorite and I like to read James Patterson novels. I love to read magazines about altered art to get ideas for my latest art projects. Any book about art is great.

Favorite Crafts

I love all kinds of crafts from ribbon flowers to drawing pencil portraits of my grandchildren. My favorite color is blue. I love cards with scriptures from the Bible. I am working on an altered book with pictures from my vacation inside with lots of embellishments. ATCs of course are great. I love doing altered books.

My friends

I have two other friends that are participating in swapbot and I hope to get my oldest daughter involved as she loves all kinds of art, too. I love meeting people from other countries. On vacation we took a cruise and met many people from Europe.

What I love to craft with

I love scraps of different papers, lace, ribbon and any crafty item that I can use in an ATc. I like pages from old books and music pages. I recently started drawing with inks and watercolour pencils. Also love water colour pictures.

About Me

I love nature and animals and like to use natural materials in my craft. I especially love dried flowers.

Comment: Lovely card, did you hand cut the tree or did you use a punch? I love it.
Response: My friend has a punch so I borrowed it and punched a lot of trees in all colors to use in my cards. Glad you liked it.

Comment: Hello Elaine, I received your ATC for this swap and what a wonderful treat I found when I opened your envelope. I really love how you used "tiny" dragonflies within a hand-drawn scene. Thank you for sharing your drawing skills with me through this ATC. I will proudly add your ATC to my ATC collection and more specifically will be a great start to my Insect ATC collection. I look forward to being able to swap with you in the future. Until that time arrives, Happy Swapping! Barb sleepingrover2010 P.S. Thank you for the extras you sent along with your ATC. I will be able to use them in my future art experiences.
Response: Thank you for the kind rating you gave me. It is so nice to know that someone likes the art you have done.

Comment: Hi Elaine - I did like the classy way you made the old picture look. Thank you. I think your town is near where all of my grandmother's family is from: Portsmouth. PLUS, my three boys are adopted and they were all born in Dayton / Portsmouth. You could be family. ;)
