About Me

My view of life is optimistic and cheerful.

I love to see creativity blossoming in others as well.

I am happily married, live in the beautiful Northwest USA. We have four kids,the youngest will be off to college this fall, and out on her own. We have three grandsons, 14, 11, and 6. They live an hour and a half drive away.

Swapbot has been great motivation for me, to take time to make something, reach out more, and enjoy other swappers Talents.
A challenge for me is my health, and trying to feel stronger.( Rheumatoid Arthritis)

. I like having reasons to get out my art supplies, surround myself with paper scissors, glue, fabric, etc... Fun! I feel most alive and in the right place when delving into artistic projects. In fact I do believe it may reverse the aging process...

We have a mostly Vegetarian household. I enjoy cooking, and trying to learn something new every day.

I love flowers, and especially a fragrant garden. I enjoy farmers markets and yard sales. My life is sweet right now, as I am able to travel standby (thanks to my son, Daniel working as a flight attendant)

I have traveled to Stockholm and Paris within the past yr. Before that, trips to NYC, San Diego and San Fransisco. I can hardly wait for my next adventure.... My husband is not fond of flying, so I travel alone, or with a sister or one of my kids. (I was born with a serious case of Wanderlust...)

I write poetry, and am kind of a dreamer.... I will always complete a swap, and enjoy the whole process, even the post office line!

I love people, (really do) and don't mind being alone either. I savor life, and try to find the beauty, humor and mystery of each day.

Comment: celia, what a pretty card you made... You must be on the ball more than me... I just got mine in the mail today! It is interesting that we both chose to use lavender in making our cards. Yours is just layered with bling and glitz and so beautiful. I will hang it over my desk on my little laundry line of ATCs until I am ready to retire it to an album. I have a feeling I will not be ready to take your royal card down for some time. It's my kind of eye candy. Also, did you daughter decide on school in boulder? My son and daughter in law are just back from Grad school in Ireland and are relocating to Boulder in the fall... If you like herbal tea and she goes there.. be sure to stop by Celestial Season tea factory. The free tour and peppermint storage room are worth the visit for sure... clear your sinuses and get a free sample.! Thanks again. Betsy

Comment: Hi Celia, Thanks so much for the beautiful seed packet. I'm sorry for the delay in rating, but today is my first free day to sit and take time to do this. I love the packet envelope you made I hope you don't mind if I try to make my own from following yours? Thanks so much for the little goodies. I am hoping to take some time this long weekend to get some crafting done!
Response: Hi Teresa, i am glad that you enjoyed your altered seed pkg. Of course I would be more than happy if you used the ideas for making something else. We all glean ideas from each other! Celia
