I have come back to swapbot after a long hiatus (12 or 13 years). Life got crazy busy but I always wanted to come back, and finally made the time. I am a Mum to 2 kids 12 & 17 and 2 cats and wife to my best friend of 25 years.
I love to read (almost) all genres, and write fantasy, spec-fic and YA.
I will try almost any craft, currently focusing on fiber/yarn crafts, such as spinning, weaving, crochet, needle felting and wet felting. I also love to sew, and have too many wips to count.
Papercrafts inclding scrapbooking, journaling supplies envie making, atcs etc.
My favourite colours are purple, blue and green. I am not a big fan of pink or yellow, but I can tolerate them ;). I do like the odd paisely pattern but not bold geometric patterns. I also like the old faded postmarked/mappy background print(if that makes any sense!!).
All animals, including prehistoric. Hippos, marine life, reptiles, birds of prey...
Stuff I am always using:
Writing prompts
Reading suggestions
Bookmarks (handmade, store bought, free adverts whatever)
Labels with my swapbot name for putting in with swaps/ address labels etc
Rinestones and pearls (the stick on variety, obviously)
12x12 scrapbook page refills with 6x4 photo inserts
Paper and fabric flowers (the scrapbooking type)
Brads
Washi tape
Novelty usb flash drives :)
Stamps/stickers/address labels with "I love snail mail"
Writing paper
Buttons

Ha! That's hilarious! I see her posts in your comments. She's done 7 of the swaps too - this is the first one she's missed.
Just noticed you haven't joined the new Mystery Microfiction swap and I didn't want you to miss it if you didn't know about it - here's the link: http://www.swap-bot.com/swap/show/89267
Haha, I did that in my Microfiction! I did president of the Paris (my other word) Street homeowner's association. Great minds... ;)
I know, right! So funny! Bucket sent me my words and your words and I just laughed and laughed. :):)
Thank you for the beautiful mermaid atc in the PIF- make an atc of your favorite theme! It's the first mermaid atc in my collection. I love it!
Thank you so much for the lovely card-making kit! Am going to have a lot of fun with it!
The envelope templates from the forum tag arrived safe and sound today - thank you so much! They're exactly what I needed. :D Thank you for the envelopes you've made & included as well: they're great! ♥
