About me

I'm french and was born in Paris, but live in Reims I'm single and no kiddo. I'm not pratiquant. I'm not a flaker so PLEASE let me know with a pm before rating me. I use to do nice package and goodies for swap, but if you don't let me know I just can't fix it. I'm a recycle/bio girl so I use to reuse envelope from previous swap: don't be afraid to receive an ugly package, the things inside are not !!! Please STOP SENDING ME POSTCARD (I don't like that except if it's a swap requirement) or card as I scrap I use to do my own to personalize my send. I stop swaping in France because I was so desappointed then I decided to swap over the world... I thought I would receive pretty or/and thoughfull package but that's not the case. I'm a bit desappointed... Last thing: forgive my bad english as I'm french ^_^

Favorite Musics & Books

I listen to Cold play, the Fray, Norah jones, the Ting-ting, Buddha bar, Greenday, Red hot, Pony Pony Run Run, etc... and electronic music for dance but I'm a BIG fan of a french group that I guess most of you don't know "Noir Desir", love them forever and ever... My favourite reading are novel investigation or murders mysteries as "tell no one", but I've loved "the alchimist", or "the lion", "Harry Potter" too. I love real story too as "Anne Franck" or "Flash"

Favourite Television & Moovie

I don't watch TV anymore, too bored with soap and reality show... I'm a moovie addict too, watch almost everything new, don't have particular preference: fantastic, thriller, comedy, anything except Twilight, I REALLY hate those moovies !!! Oh and favourite animated moovie ever is Kuzco, so funny ! ^-^

Favourite Drinks & Foods

I love fruit juice, and water, sometimes coffee with no sugar. I don't drink tea, milk only because I don't like the taste. I love hamburger, rice, potatoes, fresh vegetables, chicken... I hate spinach, yuk! My favourite fruit ever is strawberry, but love passion fruit, banana, orange, grape, pineapple... I don't eat very much candy, I'm not a sweety girl, even if sometimes I eat some. I love, love, love Oreos.

Favourite Clothes, Shoes & Cos

I use to wear jeans & sneakers (love All Star) Socks size is 38 Europe, 5 UK, and 7,5 in USA The color I wear the most are black, poppy colors and a hint of pastel ones. The only color I will never ever wear is red. I love purses. I love make up & cosmetics in general, the brands I like are Urban Decay and Make Up For Ever and my Sigma brush !!!! In make up I like eyes shadow but very pigmented as I have dark (not black) skin.

Favorite Crafts

I'm a scrap'addict for 18 years now, I even had the chance to teach in a craft shop during 3 years and I wrote an article for a magazine. I mostly do mini album and card much less 12x12 page. I'm a C&S style scrap and project life style too. I've tried almost every kind of craft from cross stitch , crochet, clay, sewing and many others.

Things I like...

There are so many things I like, where to begin... My favourite colors for craft projects are KRAFT & PINK, black, brown, white, poppy colours, pastel colors, lately I have a thing for neon, mint, coral & gold.I love hearts for almost everythings, from clothes to crafts. I love owl (that I collect for about 20 years ^-^), hedgehog, I love cute clouds too & bow. I love cactus too. I love simple & cute things as dots, buttons, ribbons ... I love etsy it has lots of beautiful handmade. I love vintage as 70's-80's, retro style. I love liberty, cute or vintage fat quarter. And finally I'm an hello kitty addict for years now (about 25, don't send me too much as I can find it here, but always happy to receive USEFUL item...) and I love kawaii goodies too, but can't find kawaii stuff here -_- stickers flakes or not, letter set, eraser, absolutly anything ! (which is useful of course) I love pens, my favourite brands are paper mate (so smooth), sakura gel pen (the glaze one, so bright) and sharpies pen. In general I love neat thing. I looooove handmade, it's personnal and special, everything I receive have a special place in my heart... Last thing I'm king of geek so anything Stitch, Wall E, Dragon ball z, Kirby, Yoshi or Totoro, would made my day but above all Harry Potter or Naruto... only writing those 2 make me happy ^^

Things I dislike...

I'm not very complicated I don't like bad quality scrap goodies, mix-media (everything collage, art journal, children heads with wings & crown, classical dottee doll...), religious stuff, don't like lavender or lilly scent. Please, don't send me Walt Disney stuff: I love Disney but only the 2 above. For the moment I think that's all but maybe after I'll add more.

Wishlist

You can pick up in "things I like" list but you can please me with lots of other simple stuff which I just can find here or in France as:

*Anything HP, Stitch, Naruto * Anything scrap * Surprise * Kawaii (papers, pens, stickers, stamps, accessories, stationary, boxes... almost everything !) * Sharpies pens in black as I can't find some in France. * Glassine bag... in any size, no matter... that's something that I can't find too in France ! * Anything fountain pen related

As the title says it's a wishlist in anyway I'm asking you to buy those things.

Hearts...

I want to explain how I rate my hearts. I used to rate a heart when I receive extras but after receiving a year of swap I realize that there were 2 kinds of extras: 2 pairs of socks instead of one and the other ones, the one you can call "this was an extra special package". You know, when you receive something and jump around and think "it's exactly what I wish to receive" or with a thoughfull handmade... If you send me something keep this in mind and don't feel desappointed if you don't receive one. I just want to be fair with partner who take time to made my day. ^_^

Hey, I just felt like leaving you some warm greetings! You handmade me a beanie for the "Small gift swap" a while ago, and I just returned from Iceland and have been wearing it there all the time. It's so lovely! I'm almost sad that Spring is coming and I will have to put it in the cupboard until November ... :)

Ivy1971 on Apr 24, 2016:

Just to let you know that I mentioned you in my profile as a non rater. I hated to do this but I think it's not okay to ignore people who did their best to send you something nice. I hope you won't do this to other swappers also.

Jadelynn on Feb 19, 2016:

I'm about to send my "fox ATC" to you, but I'm really anxious if you'll like it, since you seem to be very talented! I make the ATC's with my girlfriend and we really did our best!! :) Please let me know if you like it! We are really nervous about it :D

ericaiscreative on Jul 28, 2015:

Hi! Just wanted to let you know I finally opened that July Babies Birthday Swap package and wanted to be sure to thank you properly for all the goodies! The handmade card was adorable and I absolutely love the ATC you made. It fits perfectly in a lime green frame I bought forever ago, it's sitting all cute on my desk now :-)

Karmi53 on Jul 24, 2015:

Happy belated Birthday l hope you had a great day.

I just finished creating 7 fun deco clothespins for my partner on the clothespin DIY swap and saw your post on the swap thread. I would be happy to set up a private swap with you. These DIY deco pins are so fun to create.

Best
