Hi Friends, I will be taking a break for a bit, just diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and going through chemo. I very much enjoy mixed media. I like to use old photos, small locks, keys ,game pieces,buttons,and vintage photos for many of these projects. Old advertising comes in handy for these projects too! I enjoy sewing, and occasionally make purses and totes. I like to make and swap ATC's and postcards. I like to journal also. Right now Iam looking for good luck charms , 4 leaf clovers, horse shoes, anything lucky. I collect old buttons. Love ,love,love buttons and buckles!

Other things I collect are: vintage pins, like enameled flower pins. sewing trims- ric-rac, ribbon, cracker jack or bubble gum machine charms, vintage children's flash cards, or game cards,game pieces, old valentines cards, postcards, I love old black and white photo's and the quirkier the better! Also, beach themed photos. Mismatched jewelry bits, small tin cans. . Of course, I love fabric. I like vintage fabric and new fabric. I like polka dots, flowers, fun, funky fabric. I like old sheet fabric too. , I like handmade beaded bracelets , I like things that make me laugh out loud. Anything plain cute, or funky.
Favorite Colors: I am always attracted to sea blues and greens. ( I love the ocean) I wear alot of reds and oranges. I like red and Turquoise blue together. And of course, Pink.

Wishlist: I would love to recieve some cute Japenese fabric,. Nice markers for journaling, anything with the union jack (british) flag on it, anything with birds, I would love some vintage or copies of old paper labels or advertising of any kind. Old pictures, Milagros, dangly earrings,re-made necklace, or bracelet of any kind made by you would be wonderful . Anything that 's a little "wonky", weird, or just makes me laugh! I like pretty note cards , stationary, decorative tapes. Any ATC, Journal page made by you.

Books: I read alot. I like mysteries, thrillers, fiction. Laurie Notara cracks me up.

I don't watch much T.V. ( I do like The Big Bang Theory).
In general..... I'm married, a mom of two , My daughter is 25, and my son is 15. I love to go to estate sales, flea markets and any place else that I can find " Good Junk". I love to garden both flowers and veggies in the summer. I love to laugh and just enjoy life!
