I love paper. Books, bookbinding, altering books, cards, stamping, ephemera, (vintage, vintage-like). I'm also enjoying junk journaling.

I work at a thrift store during the day as the media manager, (books, dvds, cds, LPs, tapes) (PRP3 if you are inclined to check it out on FB - it's a great cause!) and we get a lot of books in that are damaged in some way. Water, spills, enthusiastic coloring,

I like to repurpose the books in some of my swaps. So if you get a swap from me that includes some sort of book pages, I'm not a vandal, just trying to give these books a little more life.

I enjoy swapping with people from around the world. I understand that the mail systems can have flaws and things may not arrive to their destination. I pledge to reach out more than once before rating a 1 or a 3. I would really appreciate the same courtesy.

I often include extras that are profile based, not for the hearts (I do appreciate them though!) but because I have so much stuff to share and would like to bring a smile to people's faces. That said, please rate your swap. (I always will) It helps me continue to improve what I send out, and lets me know you received my envelope.
