I'm just starting out working with altered mail. I've been crafting since I was about 6 when my grandmother taught me how to sew. I currently sell digital scrapbook products and have a couple different etsy stores. I love scrapbooking, altered art, painting and just about any craft that you can think of. I have a granddaughter and I'm too young to be "Grandma" so I go by Moogie instead. Oh, and I LOVE all things Cupcake.... seriously....all things cupcake.

I would love to swap: Scrapbook supplies

• Chipboard

• Ribbon

• Paper

• Flowers

• Embellishments, etc...

Ephemera (I don't have ANY and I would love to get some but don't have a clue where to start) Mail Art ATC's

If you were too look at my iPod, you'd think I had some pretty serious issues, but I just have eclectic music taste. Some days I need to hear the Dixie Chicks, other days I need to hear Nickleback. I listen to whatever my mood brings me. Sometimes it's the angry music and sometimes it's big band music.

I love Vampires, Werewolves, Trolls and "others". I'm not a "Twi-Hard" but I read the Twilight series. I don't quite get the level of excitement that they produced, but they were worth the read. I'm not really the sci-fi type, it's more the 'I'm in love with a Vampire and I'm a werewolf' type of thing.

I don't know that I have a favorite but some that have been amusing were The Hangover, The Bounty Hunter, The Princess Bride and I'm sure there are others that I cant' think of right now.

I liked Paranormal Activity, but it just didn't scare the crap outta me like I'd hoped it would.

I don't watch a ton of TV, I more listen to it in the background while I'm sewing or crafting or cooking or just generally doing something else....

These are the socially acceptable programs my family will watch with me....

The Big Bang Theory CSI, Miami (but it's getting to be a bit much) My Name is Earl Two and a Half Men Biggest Loser

This is the stuff that I truly love:

CourtTv, Forensic Files Physic Kids, Children of the Paranormal Ghost Adventures Paranormal State A Haunting Autopsy (on HBO) Celebrity Ghost Stories

Pretty much anything paranormal or forensic will do

Oh Boy.... Here we go

Scrapbooking and pretty much anything scrapbook related. I create them and sell them in my etsy shops, give them as gifts, sell them at craft fairs.

ATC's are SO COOL. I have 3 spinners, 2 of which are still in the box and I would LOVE to fill them up with ATC's from other people rather than ones that I have made myself.

Journals I've started creating "Remains of the day" journals and they are SO FUN. I'm totally open to swapping one with someone for something different.

I like creating Altered Visual Journals but these take up so much of my time, I don't do them as often as I would like.

Sewing I've been sewing since I was 6 years old and I quilt, create baby stuff, purses, wallets, all kinds of hand sewn stuff.

I also make Cards for Birthdays, Just because, Miss you and Holidays in singles and bundles to sell in my etsy stores.

I would pretty much love to swap anything, but here are some "get to know me" ideas:

• Alice In Wonderland
• ATC materials, unusual stuff and bits and pieces
• Postcards from anywhere or with anything on them
• Address Labels, homemade by you
• Homemade paper
• Stickers (not picky)
• Pink, Black, White & Lime Green are my craft room colors
• Collage Sheets of anything
• Pin-Up Girls
• ATC embellishments, inchies or buttons
• Matchboxes, decorated
• Handmade cards
• Deco Tape
• Note Cards
• Brads
• Pens, copics, sharpie, markers colored
• Ink Stamps
• Stationery
• Recipes
• Beads
• Buttons
• Music
• Ribbons
• Glitter
• fat quarters
• small baggies of buttons
• Anything “Dutch” (I'm Dutch and I collect figurines, pictures, pretty much anything Dutch)
