--Because of ongoing health issues I will be stepping away from Swap-Bot for the near future. I will check messages periodically. If you have not received something from me please let me know and I will resend.--
I take my swapping very seriously, I like to read my partners profile to get a sense of who they are and will always try to send things that will make them smile!
If for some reason you do not get a package from me, please pm me and I will resend. If for some reason I would ever be late, I will always pm you before the send date.
6/24/22 Update: I just wanted to let everyone know that my Mom passed away this week and I am running behind on things. I hope to get back on top of things as soon as I get things settled. Thank you for understanding.

Iโve been swapping now since Feb. 2008. I am totally addicted and have made many new friends. I love to surprise my Swap-Bot friends with RAKs and cards.
I'm a homemake who has been married for 40 years to my best friend Mike. We have 2 grown children, a beautiful grandson and adorable grandaughter. We have 3 fur babies, 2 german shepherds and a cat. We have a Harley and love to ride through the parkway when it's nice out. I have a beautiful craft room that my husband built me to do my crafting in.
My favorite colors are green and purple.
I love to read science fiction and thriller/suspense books. My favorite book series is the Xanath series by Piers Anthony. Some other authors that I like are Patricia Cornwell, Johnathan Kellerman, Robin Cook and James Patterson.
I am currently on a Robin Cook kick. I really enjoy his style of writing.
I like action/adventure, comedy and science fiction movies.
Since joining swap-bot I have had the pleasure of being exposed to artist and art that I had never seen before. The level of craftsmanship still amazes me and makes me want to explore my own talents. I have just started playing around with junk journals. I also enjoy making postcards, atc's, bookmarks, and decorating envies.
-Some themes I like: Birds, Fish, Dinosaurs, Animals, Mushrooms, Science Fiction, Bugs & Lizards
-Pretty Stickers (both loose and sheets)
-Used Postage Stamps & Airmail Labels
-Handmade postcards
-Rubber Stamps
-Small Embellishments
-Receiving swaps in decorated envelopes
-Ephemera of all kinds
-Bookmarks
-Notecards
-Colored Pens
-Sticky Note pads
-Fun Office supplies (I have a strange obsession with office supplies, especially fun colored ones)
-Anything made by you

RE: September RAK #5. I forgot to tell you that your collaged envelope is so beautiful. It's so colorful and interesting to look at. There's so much detail and you can tell you took your time to create a fantastic piece of art. I was able to take off the address labels so I can use it again. Maybe! Right now it's on my bulletin board so I can enjoy looking at it!!! Heart ๐โค๏ธ๐โค๏ธ๐โค๏ธ๐โค๏ธ๐โค๏ธ
