About Me

I'm an easy going gal from Texas with a hubby, 2 kids and 1 dog.

I like to make a variety of crafts; handmade cards, ornaments, ATCs, jewelry and other paper and holiday crafts. Baking is a secret pleasure, so I like all the new kitchen gadgets and baking supplies (especially if they are holiday themed). I really love vintage things, especially jewelry/brooches (the big, sparkly kind), Little Golden books, and Christmas ornaments.

I do like to play Cityville, so if you need another neighbor, please feel free to send a friend/neighbor request.

Favorite...

Themes: Cupcakes, Cherries, Strawberries, Pandas, Ladybugs, Loteria, and Polka Dots.

Colors: Pink, Lime green, Red, Black and rich jewel tones - Fuschia, Teal, Burnt Orange, Emerald Green, etc.

Snacks: Absolutely LOVE gummy candy and salt water taffy. I do like chocolate, but prefer fruity and/or sour, chewy or gummy type candy.

Crafting Supplies: Colorful sharpies, stickers (sheets or loose),embellishments, acrylic stamps, ink pads, card stock, and ribbon.

Handmade Items: Cards, embellishments, anything crocheted or hand knit, ornaments, ATCs, jewelry, hair pins/barrettes, etc.

Holidays: Absolutely LOVE holiday themed items like decorations, knick knacks, craft kits, notecards, stickers, socks,etc.

Anything fun, quirky, cute or different; I love surprises!!!

Things for my family

My daughters are 4 and 2 and they love to get mail! They like just about anything, but pink/girlie/princess things are among their favorites. Sticker sheets, hair accessories, small books, crayons, coloring or activity books, simple puzzles, flash cards, silly bracelets, temporary tattoos, bubble machine or small wind up toys, sunglasses, fun socks, state map postcards, and kid friendly craft kits are a hit with them too. Favorite characters include: Dora, Hello Kitty, Sesame Street, Mickey Mouse, Caillou, Thomas the train, Smurfs, My Little Pony and Cars. Please no candy or snacks.

My husband likes coffee, so any small flavored coffee pouches/bags are appreciated. He also likes to grill, watch football and basketball, and LOVES pistachios!

Things I'm not very fond of...

I really do like most things, but I'm not a fan of incense, concentrated oils or anything Vanilla, Eucalyptus, or Patchouli scented.

Ratings & Flaker list

RATINGS - Once I receive a swap package I'll submit a rating for my partner and would appreciate the same. If you don't receive something from me, PLEASE send me a message and let me know BEFORE you give me a rating. I will gladly re-send when I am given the courtesy of knowing that something was not received.

FLAKERS - This is one of my LEAST favorite lists to make, but unfortunately, someone is on it: Shandi for Cupcake Package Swap; Have yet to receive anything :(

Comment: Definitely the cutest postcard that I've ever received in the mail! The little drawings on the back-side were adorable. My apologies again for the delayed rating. School completely caught me off guard and I haven't been able to get on the computer much. Happy swapping!
