I am a teacher living in a college town with my boyfriend and my cat Chandler and our dog Chance.

I love cats, dogs, reading, giraffes and zebras, anything pink, anything sparkly (or with bling!), flowers, hello kitty, disney, kawaii, the ocean, traveling, tea, sweets, fun pens or pencils, fabric, Netflix, stickers of all kinds, pretty papers, stamps, cards, stationary, book plates, and getting mail.

WHY I WILL NO LONGER BE A PART OF THIS SITE

I cannot delete my profile so I will leave this message here for you. Unfortunately life gets in the way of the things you like to do. I have always sent my swaps even when I had emergencies that required my attention in other states or when I was hospitalized. I apologize to those of you who have not been my priority over MY FAMILY or MY HEALTH. I have sent your swaps even if they were late and I did message you to let you know why they were late. THE LACK OF COMPASSION from some of the users on here is why I am leaving. I hope no one ever treats you with anything less than compassion.

Scrapbooking- . I have been scrapbooking since I was about 12 years old and I worked for a private scrapbook store when I was 15 and then Hobby Lobby for a year.

ATCs and Inchies - started last year, I display my favorite ATCs in an antique collage frame. I am trying to get enough inchies to cover a giant canvas

SMASH books- currently working on several different ones.

Project Life is something new I am trying! I am also obsessed with whimsy jars.

I am just about to end my first year of teaching. I am teaching 5th/6th grade Language Arts and 6th grade Catholic religion. Next school year I will be teaching 3rd grade Language Arts, Social Studies and Catholic Religion. I have a giraffe theme for my classroom.

Anything for my classroom would be much appreciated. I do not get money for school supplies for my classroom since it is a private school and I get paid 80% of what the public school teachers get paid. Since I am new I am lacking basic supplies such as glue, scissors, markers, crayons, pencils etc.

I love reading anything!
