I am a 53 year old small town country gal living in the mountains of eastern Kentucky. I am a mother to 1 wonderful adult daughter ( married).
My husband of 35 yrs and I reside with our 4 fur babies.~ A pitbull and 3 cats.
I am a collector of all things old and vintage and love to go "junk hunting". Thrift stores and flea markets are some of my favorite places to shop.
I love Old vintage things, lace and pearls or anything shabby chic.
I enjoy jewelry of any kind. I have multiple pierced ears. Bracelet size 7 1/2- 8 inch and ring size 7. I love the handmade stuff!
I don't mind partially used craft supplies (like left over stickers and bits 'n' pieces) all crafters always have "extra leftovers" from projects that we don't throw away because we say "I can use it later". I would love any crafty assortments, stickers, vintage themed anything, butterfly, or pet theme you would like to share. I do lots of paper crafts with a wide variety of themes so pretty much anything goes for me.
I love animals and have rescued many. I can never turn an animal away. They need love an affections just as much a people do. I enjoy anything cat themed.
Favorite Movies are to many to list but the types I like are comedy, romance, thrill/horror, mystery suspense, action adventure.
I watch A LOT of TV! Any suggestions for shows or movies are appreciated. I stream Netflix & Hulu along with regular tv Network channels.
DIY channel, HGTV, Investigation shows, I enjoy shows like The Handmaids Tale, Harlots, Siren, Stranger Things, ,Chicago Fire, Chicago Md, Chicago PD, New Amsterdam, The Good Doctor, & psychological thrillers.
I have been a crafter for most of my lifetime. I dabble in just about everything except needlepoint. I enjoy all types of paper crafts like making ATC, Card/tag making, making creative stationary and scrapbooking. I like cutting and pasting for my glue book or doing random collages.
When it comes to theme choices for swaps I'm easy to please. I like most everything (see a few dislikes) everything from kawaii to horror. I am not easily offended and I love humor.
I enjoy all the seasonal holidays and I do celebrate Christmas. I am a Christian so religious items gladly accepted.

I like abstract/ cartoonish, doodles/ retro as well as "real" when it comes to art work for postcards or ATC. * I love getting mail art in my mailbox.
I am easy to please and not picky at all but just a few things that I don't like and would prefer not to receive Are: Marvel/ DC comic related, Star Wars, Anime, Pokemon type stuff. *role playing items (Dungeons & Dragons, MTG) * Primary (teacher/school type award) stickers.
I am an early sender. I weigh my swaps to calculate postage but should you ever get anything with postage due please let me know so I can make it up to you!
You should receive your swap well before the deadline date. If you haven't got it by the deadline date please message me so that I can try to track it down or resend.
I would never flake on a swap and communication is important. If you are my partner I will always notify you if I might fall behind schedule for any reason and please feel free to message me at any time.
I don't always check my email so if you need to get in touch with me please send your message via swapbot message.

Thank you for the CPG wishes for March! Those Snoopy return labels are too cute and the coffee thing caused many laughs. So I had opened your mail & set it aside to do some other things. I kept telling my husband I smelled coffee from somewhere but never found it so I assumed I was just imagining it. Then I went back to your wish and voila! 🤣🤣🤣 But this contraption is super cool and this coffee lovin’ gal has never heard of these! I’m intrigued!
Thank you so much for the wonderful April wishes - the zine that brought back memories, the ATC backs, the glue book page that is so lovely, and for putting everything in a sweet birthday card. It was a delight to receive!
Thank you for the birthday card, the postcard with list (oh yes, the squirrels!), the puzzle, stickers, charms (so special and unexpected, I had forgotten they were on my Etsy list!), and info about Hazard, KY (CPG April wishes)!
Thank you so much for the surprise RAK!
Thank you very much
for granting CPG wishes for me with the lovely slow stitching sample, the pretty envies, stickers & labels, and the nice note- delightful happy mail! :)
