I have been pen-palling and swapping for a few years and love discovering all the new ways people come up with to be creative and reading what others want to share about themselves.
My rating goal: When I'm active, I rate as soon as I receive your mail. Over the years, I have found that sometimes I need a break and just have to step away (not often). If this is the case I will rate anything that comes in during the first month after I go inactive as soon as I receive it. If a good bit of mail comes in after that, I will rate it as soon as I return.
My swapping promise! I will never flake. If I sign up for a swap, I send that mail! If you do not receive yours in a reasonable time, please let me know, and I'll send you a replacement swap and/or photos of the one I sent. Over the years, I have found sometimes I need a break and just have to step away (not often). If this is the case I will still send ALL swaps I have signed up for before going inactive.

Haha! Almost got me!
I love anything creative and see art in everything. I never know which medium will grab my attention each day, but I always try to have fun with it!
Some that I enjoy most would be:
All Papercrafts (scrapbooking; DIY ephemera, bookmarks, tags; flipbooks of all varieties, paper weaving, origami, decoupage...)
Bookbinding
Crocheting & Cross Stitch
Sewing (I'm a newbie with this one but have done a few projects I am happy with)
Calligraphy & Hand Lettering
Sketching, drawing, zentangles, doodling, digital art, painting (watercolor, gouache, acrylics), sculpting
Jewelry making, wood earring painting, dangle making, glitter and sequin shakers,
Stamping and stamp carving (newbie at making my own stamps but its a lot of fun)
Cardboard crafts & Carpentry... I like to make small and large furniture and storage pieces. Some I have done include:
Foam board: pen organizer for a cube shelving unit to organize my obnoxious pen/marker collection...
Wood: lazy susan organizers, kitchen drawer organizers...
Cardboard: DIY boxes, slotted boxes with back flaps, DIY book covers, DIY binders, DIY organizers...
Rejoice always. Pray continually. Give thanks in all circumstances for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
