About Me

Just to let everyone know, my internet has not been working for a week and I am planning on send everyones package either Monday or Wednesday this week, hope you get them ok! sent: A weeks Findings swap Sending: a-z scavenger hunt + private swap between me and Lisalaughs Let me know once received please! xxxx

Hi, my name's Amelia, I live in Warrington in England, and it is ALWAYS raining! I don't really like it here to be honest, there's no where to go!

I have had one extremely harsh rater, I sent the package, it got lost in the post, so I sent another one, which DID contain what the spec said to inlcude and even offered to send more, but no, they rate me a 3! That was a little harsh..

I would love to receive postcards from other countries and make pen pals on here, so if you would like to be my pen pal, don't hesitate to contact me...I don't bite lol x

I love anything crafty! I would love to receive anything hand-made and things where a lot of thought has gone into them. BTW I love cats!!!!!! I have a pet cat called Noddy, Two guinea pigs called, Mr Brush and Arnold (BTW Arnold is a girl lol), a rabbit called Burt (who is 13 this year!), and I'm hoping to get a ferret soon...

BTW I am a vegetarian, so bare this in mind when getting the swaps. I am also against animal cruelty, so any products that have been tested on animals, or contain animal fur, I would not like to receive thanks xx

  • NOTE: If anyone does not receive a parcel, then please message me and I'm sure we can sort something out, its more than likely gotten lost in the post, if so I would try and send another one for you :0)

Comment: Thanks Amelia, I got your tea party in a box swap yesterday and it was great! You spent some time thinking up that package and I really enjoyed it. I can't wait to try the teas as my English friend states that us Yankies don't have good tea here. Thanks so much for all the great things including my own party hat! And yes, Strawberry Shortcake Rocks!

Comment: After looking at the package more carefully and re-reading the swap spec I'm afraid I have to change my rating. ;o( Sorry! *Edited to reply to your response - Yes, I know you had to resend and I do appreciate that and, yes, you did offer to send extra items which was very kind of you but I didn't want you to go to the expense or trouble as you'd already had to send again. My issue with your swap package is that none of the items are rose themed. :o( They are all pink but none of them are rosey, none of the smellies are rose scented and there's not even a picture of a rose on any of the items! I try hard to rate fairly and I didn't rate you a 3 lightly, I gave it much thought and consideration but unless I have grossly misinterpreted the swap spec I'm afraid your package didn't meet the requirements so it had to be a 3. Sorry.
Response: You could have took in the fact that I had to resend, which cost me money, I told you I would send you extras if you liked, In the swap it says to send 4 rose themed items which I did. I don't see why you rated a 3, I didn't deserve that. The pefume WAS rosey It had roses on the outside, and smelt of them, the gift bag had roses and flowers on, the pen topper was rose coloured and the body spray WAS rose scented. sorry but I still don't agree :(

Hi Amelia. My nane is Karen. I live in New England. Pawtucket, Rhode Island.I was looking at the Hello Kitty picture & I had to look you up & see if we shared anything else in common. I am looking for someone to Swap one on one with. I Love Hello Kitty too - but only have a few things of hers. I have some things you are looking for-would you be willing to swap with me? (Inexpensive Picture Frame Necklace with a Cat across the top, & says "My Cat" on the bottom, empty match boxes, Assorted Stickers,Beaded Baby-Pearl Off-White Purse,with Pale Pink, Yellow & Green Straight Beads on it- (Real Pretty & Very Fancy) & some Chocolate.I won't be able to send anything out until March-if you are interested.I'd be Happy with a nice Tea-Cup & Matching Saucer for the purse & a post card Pretty one with flowers or a country or city scene on it or some Teabags(Especially Earl Grey& English Breakfast-prefferably individually wrapped ones) & a cool bookmark & I'd trade Chocolate for some from your area. I love Dark Chocolate. Let me know.I hope to hear from you soon. Happy Valentine's Day. : D

I'm glad you liked the cd. I saw on your profile your wishlist to amazon.com and had the idea to make you a cd. I like Kelly Clarkson, too.
