About Me
I know, some of my older rates still look terrible ( If you wanna hear the story, drop me a line.) I contacted each and everyone of my old swap partners after returning here but most of them seem to be unactive and not responding nymore.
If you take a look at my 3 -ratings, they're from sending / re-sending old swaps. Although they're old, I think everyone deserves to receive their swaps.
I rate the swaps within the day or the next after receiving in. It looks like some mail takes longer to travel than others but if you haven't received anything from me that you think should've arrived by now, don't hesitate to contact me!
I mark the swaps sent after sealing an envelope and putting stamps on. I mail them on the same or the next day.
It looks like priority mail to overseas takes at least 2 weeks to travel at the moment! (6/2016)
I like
★ nice & fat snail mail, mail art ★ long letters ★ mixed media ★ personalized swaps ★pocket letters ★ scrapbooking ★ planner stuff ( I use size : personal) ★ Project Life ★ card making; ATCs and other paper crafts ★ creative minds ★ rock & metal music ★ coffee and tea ★ postcards ★ movies & some TV ★ knitting and crocheting ★ outdoors ★ geocaching ★ literature ★ deco & washi tape ★ clear rubberstamps
Swap preferences
tea :
★ black, white and green. Fruit tea, licorice, vanilla & peppermint are my current faves.
★ No tea with hibiscus or anything to do with roses, please. No loose tea or tea without sealed bags, please.
★I prefer "fresh" tea to strongly spiced ones.
★ I can find teas such as Lipton, Twinings, Nordqvist, Lord Nelson here so I'd rather try something new.
postcards :
★ views from big cities ★ maps ★ Unesco world heritage sites ★black and white cards ★ lighthouses ★ owls ★ coffee, cupcakes, chocolate and tea related themes ★ vintage advertisements ★ characters from children books (esp. old classics) ★ books, libraries ★ letter writing, postcards, snail mail
I like pretty stamps on postcards.
No cards with glitter than falls off the decoration!!!
edible things :
★no chewing gum or anything with coconut and rose.
colours :
★ black, white, red, burgundy, pink, lime, turqoise, olive green, grey, earth tones.
★ Colour combinations : black & white, black & red, black & (most colours, really!) pink & lime, rusty pink & brown.

thanks a lot for all the teas, in case a private swap...once...?!
Hi Satu! I wanted to say thank you soooo much for "angeling" THREE of the swaps I've been flaked on in the past month. I received two of them today and I have to tell you how impressed I am. Just your mailart alone is awesome...and then the letters and goodies you included for me were really WAY more than you had to do...thank you so much, I feel so lucky to have you as my angel, you're very talented! LOVE your style of decorating your envies...
It's usually customary for a returning swapper with poor ratings to make up those ratings before joining new swaps. If you are in the process of making up the ratings, please respond to each with a DATED comment re: what's going on with it. This helps swaps and group hosts immensely.
Oh ATCS make me so happy. Perhaps we can trade sometime! I'm into photography too, I love to photograph my family!
I see we have quite a couple of similar interests; I recently got marriage and the colour theme was black white and red :)
I'm also a fan of tea, coffee and cupcakes.. can't go wrong there!
How nice to find another person who does both knitting and crochet! Isn't it nice to be able to switch if you get bored with one? I envy your ability to do ATCs. I have no aptitude for any kind of card making or art and no sewing. So you're ahead of me! I like that you're good at letting people know your swaps are going out because a lot of times swappers are a bit late and don't tell. Sounds like you aren't late, just far away! Happy crafting!
Hello Satu~
It looks like we have some common crafting interests! I love all things Tim Holtz, rubber stamping and black with all other colors!
Enjoy your day~ Cathy
Thanks so much for the beautiful Romance ATC and the extra supplies for the Tagged ATC swap. Thanks for being honest!! It means so much! Wanted to tell you, even the postage stamp on the outside is beautiful and I plan to use it in a creation! thank you so much!
