Greetings and many blessings to you

My name is Helene and I am nemophilist living on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.

I am keen to swap handmade postcards, artist trading cards, artist trading coins, 3x3s, inchies, twinchies, flipbooks, folders, pockets and other themed paper crafts."

I love rich, opulent colours and metallics. I use a lot of gelli printing in crafts and I love making layered mixed media projects of all kinds, but particularly if there is an added theme or creative challenge.

SOME IMAGES/THEMES I ENJOY:

ANYTHING HANDMADE BY YOU

• skulls, bones, and anatomy

• flora and fauna - leaves, trees, forest creatures

• suns, moon, stars

• bats, birds, butterflies, bugs, insects, and arachnids of all kinds, but especially the beetle and spider species

• vintage, victorian, and gothic themes and images

• mythical creatures, fairies, gnomes, magical beings......

• elements and elemental correspondences

• travel/exploration

• First Nation's and Inuit art and themes (Coast Salish art below)

• themes from the ocean, the sky, and space

HALLOWE'EN everything all the time

Please don't send me:

*religious quotes or images.....

• foam shapes or kid crafts

• colouring pages

• city postcards

• kawaii stickers

• cartoon characters, princess, Disney

• Please don't send your current ephemera like yesterday's bus ticket, receipts, labels etc.

I would very much prefer to receive a partially destroyed or water damaged package than an envelope completely covered in packing tape. I can reuse the paper easier without the tape too. Thank you!

I am an ally of the environment, equality, and anyone who identifies as one from the LGBTQ2+ community. I am VERY passionate about the right to women's reproductive health and the right to reproductive choice, and I am an ally of all First Nation communities whose land I am grateful to live, work, play, and craft on.

I don't have all the the perfect paper punches and cutters. I do most of my cutting by hand. I'm not a surgeon, so sometimes this makes my crafts a little rough on the edges. I do my best and I like the look. I also won't re-send unless my package has not arrived to you in over a month past the date I've sent, even to the United States or Canada. Too many times both packages end up arriving and it takes time to make things.
