All about Me

Hi, my name is Crissy. I am 52, married to my high school sweetheart for 30 years. I live in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of Virginia near the Blue Ridge mountains. I have a 23 year old daughter who graduated from college last year and has a fabulous job in her field of study, Creative Marketing.

I work full time as a Financial Analyst with the Federal Government for 35 years. I am hoping to retire within the next 4 years and I can’t wait! I’ve traveled to 29 different countries with my job over the years and have especially enjoyed my travels to Africa, I’ve done safari’s in Tanzania and Kenya. I’ve even seen a Russian circus on ice in Ukraine. I’ve scrapbooked all of these trips and still enjoy flipping through and reliving the memories.

I’ve been crafting all my life. I will try anything once. I don’t limit myself to any one craft. I have so many craft supplies, I have an entire craft room in my house.

I LOVE swapping like this and I used to be part of a monthly card stamping group. I am reliable and I absolutely love making things for people and sharing my passion for crafting.

FAVORITE MUSIC: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”- Country is my favorite. My daughter and I have gone to many concerts at the outdoor venue near our house (Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, Jason Aldean, Dustin Lynch, Luke Combs, Lauren Alaina...) I also like 80’s music. I went to a Rick Springfield concert a few years ago with my sister-in-law. What a blast!

FAVORITE BOOKS: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”- Anything romance related. I read to escape the stress of daily life.

FAVORITE MOVIES: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” All-time favorite is Sound of Music, but I am also a Hallmark movies junkie. I even have a t-shirt my sister-in-law gave me that says, β€œThis is my Hallmark movie watching t-shirt.” I laugh every time I wear it.

FAVORITE COLORS ARE:
β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”- Purple, Pink, Rose Gold, Tiffany Blue

FAVORITE CRAFTS: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Junk Journals and all things Vintage and Botanical are my "go to" lately, Travel Journals, Flip books, Watercolor Painting, Procreate on my iPad to draw and make stickers and fine Art Prints, Sewing, Knitting, Jewelry Making (beading, precious metal clay), Scrapbooking, Stamping

FAVORITE CRAFT ITEMS TO RECEIVE: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Antique ledgers/documents, Vintage book pages (especially in a foreign language), Butterflies, Owls, Anything flower/botanical related, Lace, Journals, Postage ephemera, Fibers, Tags, Flipbooks, Vintage cancelled stamps, Handmade envelopes, Decorated paper clips, Mini albums

A FEW DISLIKES: β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” I don’t drink Tea or Coffee, Steampunk

Comment: Crissy - Thank you SO MUCH for the GORGEOUS Junk Journal!! I love fairies and Cicely Mary Barker fairies, so you knocked it out of the ballpark. I love all of the lace and fabric ruffles you include, as well as the cute tags, envelopes and other ephemera. I wish I could give you more than one heart because I love this journal so much and you did a fantastic job. I've needed to make a journal just for me but haven't had time, but now I can use this one and I'm so excited to start using it. Thank you again so much for a wonderful swap. You put a huge smile on my face. :-)
