Jafferty

I'm 61 years old, married for 31 years and still madly in love with my honey. We have two grown daughters, 3 grandsons, and 1 dog (Benny).

We live in a Minneapolis/St Paul suburb and love it here! Mounds View is a suburb of St Paul so either city works for my mail.

I always rate and I always send. If you don't receive something from me, please let me know and I can resend. I will do the same as this is a courtesy we all prefer.

I'm originally from North Dakota. I've lived in Minnesota for over 30 years. We still have friends and relatives in ND and visit them when we can.

I'm fascinated with junk and art journals. Love to see them and have just started making my own. I'm also making Zines and ATCs and love to see what others make. I also love Label Bags. If you swap LBs and get my name for any swap, please feel free to include LBs.

My hobbies:

Reading, books, visiting bookstores, reading about books, libraries, museums. I love most things books and mail related (authors, stamps, bookstores, libraries, etc). I also enjoy doing genealogy, scrapbooking, rubber stamping and making ATCs, cards, booklets, junk journals.

I love to travel and collect postcards wherever I go. I usually will do a postcard travel journal after I return home.

I love mail, writing letters, fun/unique stamps, Steampunk, mail art, whales, Moomins, pens, typewriters, Cows, and Polar Bears.

Looking for Used Postage Bag swaps.

So many but I will list some that come to mind:

Project Hail Mary, Station Eleven, All the Light We Cannot See, Night Circus, Less: A Novel, Green Mile, Hobbit, The Stand

Junk Journals - Love making these junk journals for friends, swaps, and myself. Currently working on a Space Junk Journal for me.

How to Frame a Figg, The Ghost and Mr. Chicken, LOTR, Star Trek, Finding Nemo, My Neighbor Totoro, Howl's Moving Castle, Final Countdown, Margaret Rutherford Miss Marple movies

I prefer to receive postcards naked and stamped,especially with fun stamps (large, colorful, different, multiple, etc)
