Hi! I'm Amber! I'm a 35 year old married, mother of 2 amazing daughters. Adriannah is 17 and Dixie is 14! My husband and I have been married almost 15 years now, together 19. We live in Michigan (booo lol). Boring!

I have always been interested in crafts, especially paper crafts, though I don't consider myself specifically talented with it. I started getting into crafts around the time I turned 16 - when my Mom bought me a ton of scrap-booking things. I have slowly collected some stuff since then... Not nearly as much as some people have, but enough to make it fun to dig through all my bins! =D I would love to jump into the idea of making some handcrafted embellishments, I think that would be really special.

I got myself back into pen-paling as my main "craft".

Of Note: I click Sent when I put my item in the mailbox. If we have no incoming mail, sometimes the mail-lady skips our house without checking if the flag is up (I'm sure she's on a time crunch). Just an FYI for date-stamp sticklers.

LOVES:

❁ I LOVE all things vintage floral. I'm super obsessed - paper, die cuts, watercolors, stickers, stamps, postcards .. seriously. I'm not picky, lol. They will always make me so happy.

❁ My favorite color is cranberry.

❁ My favorite animals are cats, otters, and giraffes. Favorite dogs are Great Danes.

❁ I love cute, pink/pastel, frilly things, but I also love dark colors - especially when galaxy-themed.

❁ I love anything to do with crystals and the mystic.

I literally listen to almost anything. I'm not a huge fan of screamo type music.

But some things that I listen to at least fairly regularly are: Pop, rock, alternative, country, contemporary Christian, piano instrumental, jazz, some hip-hop/r&b, some rap...I love music as far back as the 50's through today.

Some of my favorites are: Maroon 5, Ron Pope, Imagine Dragons, Luke Combs, and Fleetwood Mac.

I am an avid reader, and participate all year long in fun reading games/events with my FB book club.

I enjoy a good romance novel, of course. I gotta get my sap somewhere! ;) I also enjoy Thrillers, and some good YA.

When it comes to movies, I'm all over the board. I love horror movies - but I also love rom-coms, thrillers, supernatural movies, and good action movies (I'm pretty much sold on anything that has Jason Statham, Dwayne Johnson, Liam Neeson or Timothy Olyphant in it.)

My two absolute favorites, though, are "The Labyrinth" and "Alice" (A SyFy movie)

Easier to list, though I don't watch any of these super regularly - and some I'm not completely caught up on:

Supernatural, Riverdale, Stranger Things, LOST

I have craft ADD - but here are some things I've found that I DO enjoy doing, when I can get myself to sit down and complete them...

Diamond Paintings, Card-making, pen-pal letters, baking (I consider it a craft!)
