Hi Everyone,
My name is Tracey, born and raised in Montreal, Quebec and currently living in Toronto. I live in the west end of the city with my hubby, four daughters, my dog Loopy & three cats, Cynthia, Meadow & Dusty.
I love sending & receiving "snail mail". I LOVE MAIL ART! If you’re able to put more than one postage stamp on your envelope, that’s super awesome and will make my day 😆
I enjoy and appreciate all types of creative art. Some of my favourite ways to express myself are through:
Not a list of demands, just some of my favourites - & surprises are great :-)
stamps I’m crazy for stamps - I collect them and use them in my creations. New stamps and/or used stamps on or off paper / cancelled is great.Stamps from your country 1950's - 1980's stamps - AMAZING! (even damaged stamps are wonderful as I use them in my art)
mail art - please show me your talents!
handmade postcards what a treat to receive a lovely creation made by you 🤗
handwritten letters & postcards tell me a little about yourself, your interests, your life, your thoughts, something we have in common
decorated envelopes with lots of postage stamps My favourite :-)
zines I’m just starting to get into them and would love to receive some to build up my collection :-) any zine is welcome - either one created by you or a random zine made by someone else (as an extra)
flipbooks with lots of pockets
small items such as paper goods/ stickers / sticker flakes in glassine envies & tiny paper bags
vintage / retro card’s & paper goods
vintage fabrics embroidery, needlepoint, small squares of patterned fabrics (especially small flowers), pretty handkerchiefs, embroidered patterned ribbon, interesting lace (I’m happy with even small pieces (2”x2”) of any of the above mentioned) current fabric pieces are also awesome
interesting buttons, beads & baubles
wax seals
ephemera whimsy woodland, cottagecore, “vintage”, retro images of children’s book illustrations, forest animals, toadstools, acorns, pine cones, flora & fauna, botanical, birds, forest trees, mythical creatures & faerie lore

stickers retro inspired, vintage fairytales (especially Little Red Riding Hood & Alice in Wonderland, Hansel & Gretel)

rubber stamps anything related to snail mail letterpost, "please deliver to", "handle with care", "happy mail", "snail mail", "airmail" or faux postmark stamps.
polaroid pictures from the 1970’s /1980’s
vintage /retro children's book illustrations I love them all, but especially in colour from the 1950’s, 1960’s, 1970’s. I like to incorporate them into my art creations. I know they’re difficult to part with, quality copies are great too 🙌🏼
any illustration / image of Little Red Riding Hood. I collect them :-)
authentic vintage/retro wrapping paper 1950’s - 1990’s - any size
vintage black & white photo / postcard old creepy photos of people / pets

Some of my favourites are Deery Lou, Hummingmint, Homekoro, Nyokki & Penne, Pandapple, Sweet Coron, Abauchuu, Puchi Puchi Milky & Tenorikuma. I love images such as rainbows, clouds, cuteness, candies, sweet treats, ice creams, popsicles :-) (please save Hello Kitty for someone else, I have enough 🥴)
THE FOLLOWING IS FOR POSTCARD SPECIFIC SWAPS ONLY
I love decorated postcards! If you like to decorate with washi, stickers, rubber stamps, doodles…don’t hold back 🤣
If I’m lucky enough to receive an awesome handmade postcard from you, please feel free to send it in a clear protective sleeve so it doesn’t get damaged while travelling 💌
I truly enjoy the art of swapping. I always take the time to read my partners profile and see what I can create for them & what kind of goodies they like. 🙌🏼🥳 I put a lot of time and effort into my swaps. I prefer quality & thoughtfulness over quantity 🙌🏼 thanks in advance :-)
This swapper is "flake-free" - I always send my swaps out before the due date has passed and always make a trip to the post office to make sure that the correct postage is being applied to the envelope/ parcel. That being said, if you haven't received my swap way past the date, something has gone wrong in the post. Please contact me personally and let me know before leaving a poor rating
I always try and rate as soon as I receive your mail :-)
