About Me

If you can, please use the Ruth Bader Ginsberg SHEro stamp on your envie to me! UPSIDE DOWN also - that way her face doesn't get marked. I really want to receive as many canx stamps of her!

PHOTOs- I take photos of all my swaps & envie's before I send them out - so I will email a copy of the photos if something goes awry or gaga with the US post to verify that I'm not a flaker or flaking. Please let me know if there's a problem and I'll gladly send it again. Thank a Postie for all their hard work for us crafty swappers.

I will contact you if my swap doesn't get there within a reasonable time because I like to know if the time & effort I spent making a treasure made it to you. Unless overseas, then I generally wait 30days or more. But please, do me the CURTSEY of acknowledging my efforts timely.

Aloha! I give ❤️❤️ BECAUSE in a world full of people judging, criticizing, thumbs up/down, like/disliking everything, if someone took the time out of their day to buy a stamp, send a card/note/letter, walk to the mailbox, etc... just to brighten my day, then I am grateful because nobody is forced to do anything they don't want to do.

So thanks in advance for giving of YOUR TIME, spending YOUR money to mail me your special creations. You didn't have to share so that speaks volumes of your character - in my humble opinion...if your dislike list is long, this too says much of your character. I'm here to learn and experience other people, not just "stuff" & "things".

I put a lot of thought & 💕 into sending out your happy mail because I want to bring a smile to your door.

Comment: Thanks so much for the card! I love audiobooks and butterflies too!
Response: So glad you like the postcard - just realized that I returned one of your handmade cards from another group - didn't even realize it when I put the mail in the box. Since you had filled in your addy, all I did was put a stamp on so that's probably why I didn't catch it. I hope it arrived safely or will arrive soon too.Thank you for the💜.xxMuggleMom

Comment: Thank you for the fun PC. I don't cosplay, and I prefer the original 3 films. As a kid I really loved the ewoks and the captain eo show at Disneyland. When the 4th film first came out I was a projectionists at a movie theater, and the first screening had a major problem, whoever built it up on the platter made a mistake - the film was wrapping around the projector and getting ruined. I got to save the day and repair the film before anyone asked for their money back in the sold out theater.
Response: Can't believe the card got there so fast. PCs from March are just arriving now - 4 weeks later. I thought for sure my Star Wars postcards would arrive in the middle of May at the current rate!. Thanks for rating.

Hi Toni! Thanks for the great PCs for the CPG 2PCs in an envie tag! I had been wanting more Christmas PCs so that one was a fun bonus!

Haven’t yet learned pickle ball, but my friend and I just started going to the gym a couple of times a week and we both said we’d like to learn. I played tennis, but this looks a little less tiring.
