3starpotter

I have been married since 1979- To the same man too!- and have 2 grown sons.

I've been making rubber stamped greeting cards for about 15 years. I also knit, sew, paint and am a potter. I am a co-owner of a pottery studio & teach wheel-throwing & hand building classes.

I began making & trading ATC's in 2006. I currently participate in a few local swaps & am looking for some new artists to trade with.

Since joining Swap-bot, I've started making & trading Dotee Dolls and Inchies.

I play my mp3 player at work during class, so I like to have lots of different styles, something for everybody!

Il Divo, k.d. lang, CSN&Y, Niel Young, Alison Krauss, Cyndi Lauper, Janis Joplin, Sting, The Beatles, The Monkees. Pretty much all over the place, I know!

I love words! Quotes, inspiration, spiritual (not necessarily religious), poems, anything meaningful that adds to the composition of the ATC.

I like artwork that tells me something about the artist.

Stars, suns, red & black, blue & silver, brown & black, pink & black,faces, women (some nudity OK), anything NOT CUTE.

Palm trees, camels, veiled women. Think Morocco.

I don't really need any more paper for "extras." I have enough!! Clip art, images, that kind of stuff I would gladly accept, though!

I don't like anything "cute" unless it's my dog, or your dog, or my "babies", or yours. No baby chicks, bunnies, tacky stickers, teddy bears, unless they are altered and made interesting.

I usually send another ATC (based on your profile) for an extra. That requires you to have your profile filled out with lots of info!!

I do give hearts, however, I would prefer that you put extra work into your ART than send me "extras" that I don't really need.
