About Me

01/02/2018 Update LIFE... That is all.

Me, My name is Corina :::Hi Corina:::, :::Hi Swap-Botters:::..31 year old female, a mother, a wife, lesbian, feminist, die-hard democrat, crafter, people person/people lover. I over analyze everything and I agonize over every single swap I send. I always want to send the perfect item/s. My heart truly does belong to snail mail, I love getting mail with the exception of bills lol! Of course if you ever have any questions regarding things I would enjoy receiving just shoot me a message! I am going to apologize for my profile being so long, I'm a VERY long winded, chatty person. If you ever have the pleasure of communicating with me via email or receiving one of my swaps you will see. =) I'm a happy go lucky, smiling all the time kind of person.

POSTCARD SWAPS

I LOVE NON-TOURISTY POSTCARDS

NON-Touristy postcards please.

Blank and in an envelope, even if the swap states otherwise I would prefer it blank in an envelope only IF its non-touristy. If its a touristy card I perfect it sent written on and naked.

Guaranteed heart for non-touristy, blank, in an envie =) I adore oversized postcards too =)

Brands I like: Happy Bunny, Oceans Sweaty Face, Some Ecards, Uptight All Night, Postcards printed by Chronicle books, PaPaYa Art cards, Cavallini Papers &Co., Cover Art Cards, The Museum of Modern Art, Tushita, DC or Marvel Comics, Pixar, Bruce McCall Serious Nonsense, Where's Waldo, Tales From Terror, Attaboy, Maybe Your Leg Will Grow Back, Ikea, etc. You can find all of these on Amazon to get an idea of my style/likes.

Bits & Bobs

If you recieve a swap from me please don't forget to rate so I know you have received it. If you're considering giving me a negative rating for any reason please message me prior to rating to give me an opportunity to make it right. I will always provide the same courtesy to you! If you haven't received my swap package please email me, I always send early so something may have happened. And if I suspect my package may, for any reason, not arrive on time I will PM to make you aware of the situation.

****I always rate fairly and honestly. If I have given you a negative rating for any reason then we have already spoke via pm. I always pm prior to rating down. Once I have rated you a 3 I will not change it, no amount of intimidation or messaging will change my mind. As for a 1 rating, I will always accept a resend and I will always re-rate once I receive. Thank you for understanding.****

I love swapping and if your my partner and would like some specific sent to you, just shoot me a message. I love making my partners happy....that makes me happy!!

Please don't agonize over what to send me, if my wish list or likes aren't helpful please just message me. I'm happy with most everything. Scrapbooking, Smashbooking, Letter writing, and Journaling are my loves!!! So anything to go with that would make me tickled pink! I'm really very easy going, easy to please.

A Few Dislikes Religious anything I would like blatant propagand, religious or otherwise, especially vintage propaganda. I prefer coffee to tea, but if you have a tea you think may change my mind, send it my way, I will happily try it =) Garbage, please please please don't send me your trash or the trash that someone else sent you. If you choose to send me trash, you will get a message from me and it likely won't be so friendly. No one wants to receive trash (unless that's what the swap is for lol), so please don't send it to me!

Thank you to all of my beautiful swappers, you all have been very kind and welcoming to me and i appreciate that! Happy Swapping Swappers! =)

:'( Where are you? I hope you're okay. Much love sweetie!! ♥

OrigamiGrace on Jan 10, 2018:

Girl!!

thank you for an awesome, lovely, totally unexpected but thoroughly delightful RAK and letter! So glad you are back on SB! Hope to swap with you soon!! Many many thanks!

TC on Jan 9, 2018:

I got home from work very late last night, with a horrible tension headache... and there was your amazing mail art envelope full of RAK goodness. I especially liked the cards with "Joy" printed on them, as that's my word for 2018. I'm seeking to find joy in all things, and you certainly brought some to my day with the envelope of goodies. Thank you so much for your kindness.

piratecaptainmo on Jan 9, 2018:

Thank you so much for the amazing surprise RAK! The mail art was beautiful and all of the goodies are fantastic! The timing also couldn't have been better as I'm home with the stomach flu and feeling miserable, so this brought a little sunshine to my day!

LahDeeDah on Jan 8, 2018:

Dear C♥rina - My letter carrier delivered the most amazing surprise RAK to my mailbox today! I'm completely blown away by your generosity and by the fact you thought I would be worthy of receiving such a nice gift! Thank you from the bottom of my heart! (P. S. I LOVE the name Lyric. That would have been the name I would have given my child if I had been a mom. Most excellent :-)

VivaLaDiane on Jan 8, 2018:

Stopping by to check on you but also to let you know that I received an amazing RAK envelope of the most epic proportion ever. I almost couldn't open the envelope because it was so beautiful but knife to the throat, I was forced. ;)

I am forever grateful to be thought of in general but am even more appreciative to have been spoiled by someone I know I can call a good friend. Thank you fro thinking of me. It means the world and I adore you. ♥♥♥

VivaLaDiane on Nov 10, 2017:

I am alive and so are you. I've banned myself from my usual postings because it's once again received as "bullying". I can't win so if I'm not a help to anyone, I'm okay wrapping myself into a cocoon where only those interested can find me. Lol.

I'm sure toddler life can be busy but I bet it's fun. Do you have Facebook or Instagram?

VivaLaDiane on Nov 7, 2017:

Actually, I have not gone back to see my comments in quite some time. It's exhausting. Lol. I appreciate your support and friendship as I haven't always been someone who has been worth it. I now strive to be the best me I can and I feel the improvement. So thanks to you and so many others who've stood by me when I'm sure it wasn't the easiest thing to do. It's what always kept me going in some very dark time. I couldn't appreciate your friendship more. xoxo♥

VivaLaDiane on Nov 6, 2017:

Look at this! It's another week in another month and we're here. Hang in there sweetie!! We got this. xoxo♥♥
