  • Drawn to the whimsical
  • Love all things paper

How I Swap

I rate according to the quality of the swap. I am easygoing and not stingy with 5s and hearts if I feel there is effort put into the swap. I do not expect extras.

If I get you as a partner, I will read your profile, look at your Flickr, Etsy, or anything else on SB in order to get a sense of your likes, dislikes, and style. I will put my best effort into swapping something I think you will love. I usually send little extras, but expect you to rate only on the quality of the swap itself.

I expect (and will give in return) timely communication and ratings.

I do not lightly rate someone down. I consider myself to be understanding and kind. However, if I feel that someone has egregiously taken advantage of that understanding nature, I will rate accordingly.

Things I Love/Hoard

Pretty wrapping supplies

Recipes using fresh peaches

Embroidery Floss

Paper stuff

Vintage paper stuff

New paper stuff

Crepe paper, kraft paper, manila paper, copy paper, tissue paper, toilet paper (!), cardboard, chipboard .... and the list goes on.

I love licorice pastels (but not so much plain black licorice)

I love chocolate with nuts (but not so much chocolate without nuts)

I like most everything and every flavor of everything!!

Comment: Your sticker slapping is so artful that it is hardly "slapped"! Thank you for the letter, postage, mailing stickers and PCs. I love every bit of it. There are some real gems in in that stamp haul, and I kept going "ooooh!" as I flipped through them. My brother looked through them too after hearing my excitement, and was excited about the space ones. This is truly happy mail and much appreciated.
Response: So glad you were pleased with everything! It was fun to put together for you. Thank you for the kind words and rating.

Your swap has inspired me to step up my swap game, although I do try to match cards to people's profile and throw in some extra goodness, I love your cards so much. Thank you, and happy swapping.

Thank you for the CPG RAKs. The handmade envelopes are pretty and a lovely variety of Halloween washi tapes.

Hi Janet! Thank you so very much for the CPG: RAK - Letter sets! Everything is so cute and beautiful, and I am dying over the poodle/dog paper, oh my gosh! I cannot wait to use these (although I will be keeping the bats!!). Thank you for your kindness and generosity - you are truly a wonderful person to share so much! XOXO

I received the package with both of the CPG RAKs! (stickers + handmade envies) Thank you SO much! You are so kind. The handmade envelopes are perfect and will be put to good use for happy mail. And the stickers are awesome! I loved pulling all of them out and looking through the variety! Thank you again for this generous RAK!
