I’ve been swapping in crafts related items for over 15 years, yes online!! Probably before most of you even knew about the internet! I'm so glad that I've finally found Swap-Bot. I will always rate, I believe it rude not to, so please, please do the same for me.

My passions include photography and graphic design. I also enjoy scrapbooking, card making, painting, jewelry making, sewing, and pretty much any other craft you can think of! I have 23 and 16 year old boys. I am engaged and my fiance’ has a 5 year old boy. So I am surrounded by guys. So, I do take refuge in some of my girly things but I definitely tend to like more sophisticated-looking things rather than little girl things. I do like feminine things too though, like pink and sparkles. But anyway, I also enjoy dirtbiking and four-wheeling with the boys. I also enjoy riding my own motorcycle, nothing fancy, but all I can afford and I love my 94 Honda Shadow VLX.

I do bookkeeping, payroll, consulting, and taxes for small businesses. I keep my rates reasonable and like to help out the other entreprenuers of this world! I am also going to school and planning on getting my CPA soon!

I've grown up going to auctions, flea markets, and antique stores. Even though, I do like the modern decorating style with sleek, clean lines and blacks. I collect wine corks and unusual bottle caps. I use any frames 11x14 or larger for my photography work, even if they are not in good shape, I can paint them! I tend to accumulate anything to do with art and crafts, like rubber stamps, rub-ons and papers. (I prefer not to get stickers as I really don't use them) I like candy, clay, soap molds.

I especially like old, antique or unique papers, journals, accounting papers, or old labels, beer or pop bottle caps, tags, prayer cards, rosaries, charms or little metal doodads.

I specifically collect old ledger books/pages - these are the old accounting journals that were kept by hand before we had computers!

Oh yeah, old or pretty hair pins or clips! I do love my accessories – scarves (LOVE scarves), jewelry, belts, and such! I guess this is where the girly, artsy side of me really comes out!

I love coffee, any kind, I love it all!

I am trying to watch my weight so I love the 100 calorie snack packs, nuts, crunchy granola bars and that type of thing!

My traditional favorite color is dark purple. However, lately I am really into the black and white/cream with or without a touch of either red or pink! My new love is the pink and brown combinations!

Also, I would TOTALLY Love to receive your handmade items!

The littlest guy in my life wants anything to do with Monster Trucks!!

I need more tea & coffee! I love the fruity teas and the black teas and flavored coffees the most!

I love it all. I am a 70s and 80s girl at heart, but I like classical, big band, jazz, country, oldies, Christian, soft rock, hard rock, hip hop, you name it! I love mixes with a bit of it all!

Anything romantic or comedy! I will not watch anything scary. All-time favorites are Flashdance and Bed of Roses. All of the guys in my life (and I) love the Fast and the Furious series - Go Vin!! My newest favorite is Seven Pounds.

Please no sweets full of calories, as I am trying to lose weight. I don't really care for Kawaii and Stuffies - Just don't "get it"... Not really into postcards or ATC's either. I’m really not picky, there is not much that I don't like and I'm easy going. Also, if I happen to join something that contradicts these things than obviously, just ignore these statements!

Please see above info.... I love it all!! Especially papercrafts, scrapbooking, digital arts, photography, jewelry, and painting. I am not very interested in the needle arts any more though. I am in need of items for making charms - I am looking for old metal things, whatever might look cool added to a pendent or charm for a unique artsy look and any little colored glass items. I also make wine!

If you have a special thing that you make and it's creative, quality, artsy, or whatever, I would love to receive it! Time and effort are worth more than money spent in my opinion!

I haven't updated my website in a long time so I have a ton of new stuff and most of what is on there is for clients and not my art. But, If you are interested in swapping, I can get you some more to choose from.

I love autumn colors... oranges, rust, tan, dark red, browns ...... I am recently loving warm colors.... yellow, oranges, reds... Colors that say "happy"... Polka Dots say "happy" to me! I like to wear black, blue, dark colors, bright colors, not a lot of pastel but you never know ... I am an experimenter!
