Hello! I'm Amanda. I just moved to Tampa, Florida. Very exciting!

I am so glad that I found Swap-bot! I have had so much fun putting together swaps for people and getting fun mail in my mail box. I have met a lot of very nice people on here from all over the world!

Some of my hobbies are swimming, shopping, browsing the internet, cooking, all sorts of crafts, sewing, and reading.

I always want to make new friends, make new pen pals, or do private swaps so feel free to send me a message just to say hi! I also like to help people so feel free to ask me any questions.

My favorite crafts are

• Making cards and other paper goods with my magical silhouette cutting machine.

• Embossing

• Stamping (embossed)

• cute sticker sticking

• Painting ceramics or wooden things

• Decoupage

• Wreath making

• Making flowers out of coffee filters

• Shrinky dinks. I am making cute charms from kawaii stationary and Japanese candy wrappers and stuff

• Occasional jewelry making

• Making little animals out of clay

• Sewing cute felt things. I am just starting to get into sewing. I am just beginning sewing on a sewing machine.

• Pink hippos

• Gnomes

• Neat rock/minerals

• Blindbox items

• Your letters, note cards, stamps etc. from all over the world!

I am currently fairly maxed out on most of my paper crafting supplies so unless it is unique or listed on my "things I like" list.. a polite no thank you.

• I don't like scrap-booking although most scrap-booking supplies can be used for card making.

• I don't like stamps, stickers, or quote stacks etc. with words or sayings on them.

• Vintage style craft supplies

• I don't like bar soap. I hate touching it wet.

• Nothing religious.

• I'm not very into Disney stuff

• I don't currently have a fridge that magnets will stick to unfortunately.

• Things with kitty or puppy photographs

• I don't really have use for notebooks, notepads, etc.

• I feel like its kinda rude when I spend time putting together a swap for someone and they don't even bother to leave a comment with their rating!

I don't have any allergies and I will try most anything. I don't like artificial sweeteners, cotton candy or bubble gum flavoring, or black licorice.
