Favorite Crafts

I love to stamp, make cards & alter just about anything! I would like to say that I scrapbook too, but I do more collecting of supplies then anything else! ;)

If you would like to do a "one on one" swap, please let me know! I am always "in need" of new stuff! If you do a specific craft & would like to trade something you make for some of my supplies, I may be up for that too!

**I would really like: Crocheted items like Flowers, Washcloths, Bulky handbag, coin purse etc **

About Me

Edited to add 04/02/2009 ** I broke my tailbone almost 2 weeks ago & have been up & down, so please be patient if I do not respond back to any e-mails....also, I am having computer problems, so I am going to have to take my Computer in to have it looked at.....I will not forget you! :) **

My name is Julie....besides being a Shopaholic, & Stamp Addict I am a Mom of 4.

I have 3 Girls Abby 9, Maggie 7 & Mollie 3 & a token little Male "Jack"son who just turned 5! My 2nd oldest Maggie was born with Down Syndrome. She is full of spunk and loves to keep me running! :)

I do not smoke or drink

I have 2 dogs, a 12 1/2 yo Cocker mix named Sassy and a 13 mon. old Blk. & Tan Doxie named Chloe & an old cat named Mindy. Did I mention the 3 Fish? ;)

I have been swapping online for about 5 years.....I used to swap over at PCMB, but currently only swap over at the SS and Splitcoaststampers.

I have my own Stamp Room, but I rarely "use" it because I am always moving my "stuff" wherever I am & then yes I leave it wherever too! So I have a Craft room in every room of the House!

My Hobbies are: stamping, cardmaking, papercrafting, taking pictures, reading & spending time with the kiddos!

I lived in Japan for 2 years, so I love the Japanese Culture!

About ratings & hearts and how I will rate you

I am a really easy going Swapper, but after years of Swapping I know what I like & dislike. I know when a Swapper is putting some thought & care into a Swap & when they are just sending stuff to get rid of it & get a rating. If you send me low quality stuff or thing's that I specifically list on my Profile that I do NOT want or need.....like cheap Craft Ribbon, or loose Beads, I will not give you a heart & will rate you accordingly.....whether you are new or old to Swap Bot. Please understand that I am not being mean or rude or whatever. I only sign up for Swap's that I know I can follow through with & try & send stuff that my fellow Swappers will enjoy. I know we can't always make everybody happy, but we can all sure make an effort can't we?

Favorite Books

Currently reading the Twighlight Series, book #4. Love to read just about anything.....Jodi Picoult, Dean Koontz, John Saul, John Grisham, Alexander McCall-Smith...the list goes on!

Favorite Music

Tracy Chapman (most people have never heard of her....Google her she is great!! I love to listen to her soulful music & just relax!) I also like Sheryl Crow, Garth Brooks, Nickelback, the typical top 40 stuff!

Favorite Television

I admit it I am a Reality TV junkie! Love Big Brother, Survivor, Amazing Race, just about all of the TLC shows...... John & Kate plus 8, Little People Big world etc.

I also have a"dirty" little secret....I watch Soaps! I have watched the same 3 since I was like in 3rd grade! (AMC, One Life to Live & GH.)

Favorite Movies

My all time favorite movies are Footloose and The Doctor with Wm. Hurt!

I just watched The Curious Life of Benjamin Button with Brad Pitt and 7 Pounds with Will Smith and REALLY liked them too.

Favorite Supplies

I love almost anything that I can use in my cardmaking/papercrafting endeavors.

My Favorite Color is: Light Purple. I also like Pink and Pink & Brown , Turquoise & Brown combos and other Shabby Chic combos. I like nice bright colors...no forest green or bright yellow or ugly darkish colors unless it looks good.

My Favorite Embellishments are: Jumbo & Glitter Brads, Glitter Dots, Bling Self Stick Rhinestones, Misc. Shaped Brads, Grosgrain Ribbon, and cute American Craft, Doodlebug & other cutesy ribbon...... shaped Chipboard....books, flowers etc.

I am in an "Owl" and other cute stamp type phase. I don't like ugly Owl stuff, only the cute whimsy stuff! ;)

Rubber Stamps: (Unmounted or Mounted)

I love Bellas from Stamping Bella (stampingbella.com), Hero Arts, Stampendous Changito Monkeys & Fluffles, Rubber Romance, MFT, GinaK, Whipper Snapper Designs, Penny Black, SU! & the list goes on!

I love most all of the Designer Cardstock and Patterned Paper....Cosmo Cricket, Doodlebug, My Mind's Eye, Bazzill, Prima, you name it!

I LOVE Daisy/Hydrangea type Prima Flowers.

I am a "collector" of supplies. Anything I can alter (or is already altered)....Target Mailboxes & Composition Books are my current fav's!

Not so Favorite/Do Not send

I am not really fond of Vintage Collage type stuff, and I am NOT into Religious referenced items being sent like Crosses.....I AM Christian

Nor am I into used, dirty or buttons from old clothes, ( If you want to send buttons, please only send colorful buttons that are new & that are flat and are Scrapbooking/Papercrafting quality.....like from Bo Bunny, Jesse James, MM, Doodlebug etc.) no stickers, unless they are of cute Owls, Monkeys, Frogs, Elephants, etc. . NO fiber of any kind, I have tons & have no use for it!

No discount craft items, wire/craft ribbon or cheap flower stuff for me. I don't need any small round eyelets, loose beads, paper die cuts, confetti, paint chips etc.

If it's damaged or used and smells like smoke, please do not send it to me. I am VERY sensitive to cigarette smoke.

Please NO food items this includes .....tea, hot cocoa, coconut. Exceptions See's Chocolate Suckers & light milk chocolate Beaurdeaux's and Japanese Tomato Pocky Sticks.**

Would love to recieve......

Personalized Address Labels (not the tiny one's, I would like them to be about 2x3 maybe a little smaller) also personalized ATC label backs

-Anything handmade or altered that I can display in my Stamp Room or Home.

-Card Kits, Page Kits, Subscriptions to Scrapbook/Stamp Mags.

- Good quality UM or Mounted Stamps

- Prima Flowers ( Newer release one's as I have tons of the Got Flowers?, and other glass bottle type's)

- Bazzill Bling Cardstock or Glitter Cardstock (all colors)

- Rhinestone self stick Gems/Swarvoski Flatback Crystals.

- Chipboard Coasters, or Chipboard that I can decorate or use in my papercrafts.

- Crocheted or other handmade Flowers (no bigger then an old silver dollar size.)

As for the Kiddos, anything handmade with their name.....Maggie LOVES permanent Ink Sharpie Markers ( she dries them out from useing them SO much everyday....(YES EVERYDAY!!) She also loves anything that she can draw on & erase or little photo books or paint brushes..... Jack LOVES Spiderman, Batman, Superman etc. if anybody makes handmade super hero or princess costumes. aprons, bags, or anything along those lines, all of my Kids love to dress up!

I would really like some Hand Crocheted Flowers (one's that I can use for my cards & other altered crafts.) , Crocheted Hand Bag & Coin Purse, and Washclothes.

Misc.

I collect scrapbook & stamp supplies of all kinds. I am very much into buying the most up to date stuff.

I especially like Prima type Flowers because they make me happy just to put them in a clear bottle & look at them! :)

I used to have a HUGE collection of Dolphins, but have opened myself up to cute little elephants, monkeys & hippos too!

If you want to make me anything, that you are especially good at I would cherish it forever!
