SADLY MY DAD PASSED AWAY VERY UNEXPECTED. RIGHT NOW I DO NOT HAVE ANY SWAPS OPEN. PLEASE BE PATIENT WHEN WAITING FOR A RATING. PLEASE BE PATIENT WHEN WAITING FOR AN ANSWER TO A MESSAGE

Things I love to swap:

Notecards:

Clean and crisp with an envelope so I can write on them and send to penpals.

Love all sorts of subjects, but please NO specific occassions cards like Christmas, Easter, birthday, thank you, get well etc...

Some things I really like:

• fantasy

• Jetoy

• animals

• vintage

• happy, colorful and cute designs

Postcards:

• fantasy

• Jetoy

• new, clean and crisp

• vintage

• lighthouse

• covered bridge

• State cards (USA) like state maps, state animals, state birds, state flowers etc....

• Animals ( wolves, deer, squirrels, birds, all wildlife really)

• Birds, esp. owls and cardinals

• Amish

• Large Letter

• real vintage/real old ones that are written on and stamped/send in the older days

• written/stamped and send naked in the mail (to me)

• all sorts of subjects, single view, multiview, drawings, mapcards beautiful scenery etc...

• NO tasteless, childish or "so-called-funny" (humorous cards are nice, though)

I have been crafting as long as I can remember ;)

I knit, crochet, cross stitch and sew a little.

As I love penpalling I also love exchanging mail art of all kind. To name a few things:

• rubber stamping

• card making

• making ATC/skinnies/twinchies/chunky pages

• zentangling

• altered art

• decorated envies

• artjournaling

• mandala designs. I love to make them myself or colour in designs (yes, also in a coloring book ;)))

As long as one has put effort in her/his artwork I'm not picky at all! I like a lot of subjects/themes and I'm not easily offended ....which doesn't mean I like tasteless or rude things!!

For art/craft swaps that don't really have a theme (like ATCs sender's choice) I'm open to anything you think is nice........personally I like a bit of a guideline so I thought I write down some things I like so you get an idea of what to make.........this isn't a wishlist, so please feel free to send something with another theme!!

• vintage style

• asian style (geisha, dragon, koi)

• animals

• weird/funky (like Lynn Perella stamps)

• fantasy (fairy, gnome, witch, dragon)

• steampunk

• handdrawn or painted

• zentangled

Materials I like to get in swaps are:

• embellishments

• journaling items/smash book items

• nice stickers (no child or reward)

• mandala coloringbooks or cards

• ephemera

I'm not too fond of ribbon (have tons) or loose glitter

As I said, I'm not picky, but please don't waste your postage on:

• candy, food, drink, tea and things like that

• make up or toiletteries/perfumes/soaps etc..

• plushies, knick-knacks, souvenirs (other than postcards)

• at the moment I have more patterned paper than I'll be able to use in my lifetime....so please no carftpaper for now.
