About Me

I'm 39, married to a wonderful man, have a great family and fantastic friends and I'm totally and utterly addicted to ATCs!

I live in the Midwest so it's probably a good thing that I really enjoy curling up with a good book, my iPod, knitting, my hubby (of course!), or movies/TV.

ATC peeps - I love seeing/hearing about other peoples' creative processes. So when you send your ATC, I'd love to hear the motive behind the magic! :) Cheers! Mel

Comment: Amazing everything! I loved everything you sent (way overboard)! Sending an invitation was such a perfect touch. I love it too! Brown and blues are the perfect combination! The photos were great and I loved reading about your day. How special! I wish I could give you more hearts. This was an incredible "tell-all" to get. Thanks!

Comment: Wow! You deserve more than just one heart! I mean, really! The swap I received was packaged so nicely with purse-print tissue paper and contained not just a list and one item, but a list and FIVE things that I definitely can (and will) use. I really enjoyed reading your letter, your candor was entertaining. I love David Sedaris's books, by the way, and I'm glad you got your copy back =) Thank you soooooo much for the vanilla lip balm and gourmet mints (tasty!), metal notepad and pen (I have been wanting one of those!), and elegant facial tissue (I don't know if my nose is worthy!). The artsy purse-shaped embellishments will fit in perfectly with a scrapbook page I'm working on. You really spoiled me!! =D

Okay, this is weird. You go by Mel. My first name is shortened to Mel. You were born October 1968. I was born October 1968. You live in the Midwest. I live in the Midwest. This is just really weird.

Mel's one of my favorite folks that I've met on-line. She is a great swapper! Very creative, fast and supportive. You can see by all her hearts that she does it right!
