About Me

I'm into snail mail, postcards, and pocket letters. I have an addiction to stickers, washi, scrap paper, ephemera, and fabric and will soon need an intervention, or a room addition! I am also a member of PostCrossing.

Favorite Music

I like a lot of different music from classical to modern.

Favorite Books

Love audio books!

Favorite Crafts

I collect scrapping supplies like stickers, washi tape, rubber stamps, pretty papers, twine, buttons, etc. I'm always looking for train, bus, ferry schedules and used tickets.

I tend to gravitate towards 'cool' colors ... I like blues, greens, purples, pinks, and a little silver (glam) thrown in for good measure!

Comment: Where do I begin? The envelope- adorable....The V notecard- so cute! The vintage Christmas stamps--- I actually squealed out loud when I opened them! And I love, LOVE the printout. Already framed it and put it up in my office. This was some major happiness you sent me, thank you so much. I really enjoyed reading your note as well. The quote you put on there- Happiness is not out there, it's in you, I am going to be thinking on that for a while. Thank you again so much!

Comment: Valerie, that you so much for your wonderful letter and extras. The road trip through New England made me long to go back up North where I lived for over 60+ years. I wish I had known you were going because I could have told you some wonderful places to go. Did you see the mansions at Newport,RI? What was the name of the small town you stopped in CT? I am happy you got to the beautiful Berkshire but I wish you could have seen it in the fall. We were lucky with the hurricane. I seemed to go around us. Just some small limbs and branches and lots of leaves to pick up. Minor, thank goodness. Shirley
Response: Hi Shirley! I am breathing a sigh of relief to know that you weathered the storm okay. It was quite the rain producer for sure! We did not get to Newport, but stopped in Haddam, CT. I know we missed the glorious fall colors, but we missed the crowds as well. Thanks for the nice rating and the heart! Happy Swapping! Valerie
