kids, craft and the usual chaos!

...that about sums it up!

ATC and ACEOs, illustration, drawing, collage, mixed media, watercolours and acrylics, paper crafts, gocco printing, sewing, plush toys, anything that involves vintage ephemera (collecting and using). I love experimenting with new techniques so other arts and crafts may be included in my favourites as time passes.

I have been signed up to swap-bot for a long time. I love to receive swaps but enjoy the giving part of the process much more.

Currently not swapping...

Illustration, whimsical illustration, children's style illustration and naive art images

OLD tickets of all kinds! ...bus tickets, train tickets, circus tickets, blank tickets, entry tickets, cloakroom tickets.....actually ANY old papery ephemera. vintage labels, aged book pages, old ledger pages, cardboard milk tops, vintage matchbox covers, vintage wallpaper, old illustrations, decorative playing cards, old airmail labels, registered post labels, pretty stamps, vocab cards (all languages) and old postcards.

Deco tape - I have quite a choice right now but cannot help but buy more...especially Shinzi Katoh designs and anything with PIGS !!

Anything handwritten before 1950s...especially letters...beautiful handwriting

Any hand drawn illustrations dated prior to 1970....like hand drawn ladies in 1950s magazines, fashion catalogs or hand drawn merchandise in original old Sears catalogs

Most recently...some Stampington & Co magazines [Stuffed; Artist Trading Cards; Art Journalling and Artful Blogging] ...also VERY difficult to get in Australia

The list can always be longer but I think here is a good place to stop right now....smile

Thanks for reading!!

Please know that I do not usually do one-to-one swapping....but... If you do like what I do and think that you have something I may enjoy, then message me and perhaps we could work something out (please take no offence if I say NO...sometimes - for all kinds of reasons - I just can't do the swap )
