I LOVE Swap-bot. Creating for someone else and just sharing your passion is great.
I enjoy scrapbooking, making invitations and cards. I hope to learn some new things with swapping and maybe make some new friends along the way. Mostly, I have been working on catching up with my Scrapbooking. I do belong to a card group, and I also hold card/page classes in my home.
I love to travel and have been to some interesting places, but wish I could do more. Greece is one the places I long to visit.
My music taste vary. I listen to Spotify while in the car, but since I work from home I'm not in the car very often any more. I enjoy music from the classic rock "the Beatles" to Mexican Rock "Kinky" to sometimes all day 80's.
Just like my music my taste in books is varied. My favorite book is The Giving Tree its message just warms my heart. I also like Animal Farm and Cane River. I enjoy fictional books that have a lot of historical content. I love books like "Snowflower and the secret fan" and "The DoveKeepers" .
I am definitely a Chick Flick fan. The American President, Pretty Woman and Beaches are among my favorites. But I also like movies with a twist, the Seventh Sense, The others. I like action films too if they are not too unbelievable.
I love the British movies about the Royal family, and I like all the Jane Austen book movies.
Everyone and Anyone who knows me well knows that my favorite show is Law and Order. I have been watching since its inception in the 90s. I watch L&O, L&O SVU, L&O CI, L&O LA AND newly discovered L&O UK.
Scrapbooking and making cards are my thing. I got into scrapping in 1999 when my friend started selling CM. Boy has it changed.
I am so behind on my scrapbooking duty, but my goal is to complete at least 100 pages per year, which I have accomplished since Covid started.
I LOVE Football, don't play but love to watch. I should clarify American Football. Favorite teams are 49ers and Trojan (USC) for our local college team. AND now that my son is attending the University of Texas - Austin, we are Longhorn fans.
I am not a really artsy person, crafty yes, Artsy no. So all that edgy stuff is so intriguing cuz I can't create stuff like that. My favorite color is Yellow. One year, I wore something yellow everyday...I know, I was young. I love Latin art. It really brings a sense of self. I love all the rich colors that are used and the stories the pictures tell. I love the smell of Vanilla...LOVE IT!
One of my favorite food groups is Chocolate! Milk chocolate is best...with caramel, with toffee, with nugget you name it I like it. Just NO MINT...ewww.
DON'T LIKE.... Not much into girly girl stuff. sparkles and such...just don't do it for me. Please don't send stickers...I don't use them.
DISLIKES: Girlie stuff, flakes, people that slap on stickers and call it art, I'm not real religious so please no bible versus etc. While I don't oppose that people have guns, please don't send me any NRA, or gun related pics, or info...yes I've received some in the past...I was pretty shocked.
