About Me

Note: I am a snowbird. Please check my address before sending. It can get tricky!

Firstly...I will never EVER flake! and I will always rate! If for some reason you don't receive,please, please, please contact me before rating! I thrive on being creative! In the past I have dabbled in pottery, weaving, paper making, jewelry, cross stitching, needle point, painting,sewing, smocking... etc. Even though I am lucky enough to have my own room devoted to sewing, and my art... I do spread all over the place. I am extremely Whimsical!

I have a very wonderful husband who puts up with me and my mess. We are retired. I have eight beautiful Grandchildren :) I keep a scrap book of my swaps with photo's and notes. I love going back through and seeing all the different things I have sent out and received. UPDATE i threw them all away when I moved last year and I regret it! Of course I love getting hearts but I love to give them as well. It is not necessary to send me extras to get a heart. Again,I do not flake! You bet I will reuse stamps when possible! :)

Favorite Crafts

Mixed Media, Quilting, embroidery, card making, applique.,,,..ATCs...Dotees, pottery, fabric arts.. I Like trying new things! I love watercolors and making Stuffies, geli plates, jewelry making.etc…

What I like

Anything Whimsy!

ANGELS BATS, batiks COASTAL Dried tea bags Ephemera Fairy’s, Flowers, FOXES, FLAMINGOS Gnomes Horses

rabbits Mermaids, manatees, mice Octopus Pelicans RABITS Sheep, seahorses Watercolor Wolves

Dislikes

Please do not send me anything religious! I don't like drab, not into vintage fabrics. I'm not into dishonesty and people that are angry. I find flaker's and non-raters, one in the same... and both equally frustrating and extremely annoying! Sticker Art. Do not stick stickers on a card and call it art. I don’t get the concept.

Favorite Music

I Like all sorts of music Country, 70s rock. Poco, Spirit... I like James Blunt, Van Morrison, Neil Young, Zac Brown, Adele, Train, Maura O'Connel...Keith Urban, Jason Mraz, Maroon 5, Bruno Marrs, Celtic, Brandi Carlile, Zack Brian, Nathanial Ratclif, Jellyroll

wish for

I wish I had a maid!. I wish I had a boat! I would live on the water! up date we bought a boat in 2018, lived on it for a year and did the American Great Loop! We sold the boat and now I wish we still had her as I would love to take her to Florida and live on her through the winter.

Comment: Canada post is back to delivering mail after a month and two days. This beautifully and carefully crafted fox was the first to arrive and it has reminded me of my love for creative swapping and how much I've missed it in only a month's absense. His little face is giving me fits too! Perfect. Thanks for this great postcard and the cool note about your trip to Alaska on a ship. Take care

Comment: Thank you Jody, you're second swap arrived today. So sorry for the first one, I wish I had received it! And sorry for the bad rating, I was in a bad mood that week and was angry with the post office because there were lots of swaps missing. Anyway, I hope you're having a great week. Stay creative!
Response: I took your resend to the PO today. With luck, this one will find its way to you. I would have sent a resend much sooner had I been aware that you hadn’t received it.
