Hello!

▪️My name is Hamiza. (Pronounce: Ah-me-za)

▪️Mum to 3 boys 21, 19, 14 yrs old and a girl 13 yrs old.

▪️I am a hobbyist and enthusiast crafter. Basically I like to learn new things and try new crafts. I enjoyed doing paper crafts and be as creative as I can be!

▪️I am into calligraphy, water colour painting and mixed media art.

▪️My crafts style evolved through the years. I can do quilling. I love handmade crafts such as card, postcard and tag. I am at my zen when doing paper collage.

▪️I also love to doodle/draw and make it into a stickers. It’s a joy seeing them come alive in a sticker form.

▪️ Still learning my ways on botanical line drawing.

▪️I enjoyed doing small shape brooch/ keychain out of resin or clay.

▪️ I collect keychains, magnets and button/pin badges.

▪️ I up-cycling/re-used/re-purposed! If I can get a hold onto old magazines or paper bags, I will make envelopes out of it, journal book pages, pockets, flip book and sometime used as an embellishment in my other crafts too.

▪️ I love gardening but I can’t own a garden because of living in an apartment. But I have quite a number of pot plants.

▪️I am an avid coffee drinker and occasionally enjoy drinking hot teas too. Beside those, I am a lover of Frappe and Bubble Tea (Boba).

▪️I rate accordingly when effort are put into the swap not because of extras. But when extras are given I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. ❤️

▪️Pop by to my IG (link above) to see my creative journey. But just be aware there might be spoiler alert.

▪️ I try to join swap that I am able to do and be creative at. I am more comfortable joining “sender’s choice swap”. But I will make a point to read my partner’s profile and accommodate to their likes and dislikes.

▪️If you read up to here, thank you for reading my profile. If you not happy with the swap I send or rating given or unable to send out your swap on time, please send me a message. Communication is very important and I will read every message send to me. Anyway, swapping should be fun and unstressful experience. I am understanding, approachable and won’t bite. 😁

▪️Sept 2021: I just started Gelli Printing and really love the art. Much room for improvement thou. The creativity is endless!

▪️Jan 2022: Started to be more involve in swapping ATC. I love the challenge of crafting on a piece of tiny paper!

▪️April 2022: Trying my hands on making Handmade Paper. Lots of trial and error. It was a messy process but the result is so full of joy!

”Creativity is intelligence having fun”

✖️People who Do Not Rate, Flaker, and Racist. (Sorry, I just have to put this here.)

✖️I don’t like alpha/foam/student/teacher stickers.

✖️I don’t do Bullet Journal, so I don’t fancy those stickers with prompt such as: “list of things to do”, “weather”, “dates & days”.

✖️Please do not send anything pertaining to religious items.

✖️I prefer not to receive sticker or picture of dog and all pigs (Suidae family).

✖️I don’t mind getting sticker flakes but be reasonable with the sizes. Not the teeny-weeny ones!

✖️Try not to over do it with glitters making the mail hideous and difficult to clean up.

✖️Overload of kawaii is to much for me.

✔️If there is a choice on a handmade mail art swap, I prefer to receive handmade postcard- preferably sent naked or ATC. But if it is not your forte, I don’t mind to receive ink box card, tag or whatever the swap recommended, it’s fine by me.

I am a movie geek! I was exposed watching movies in cinema at a young age and never stop since. I watched the 1st Star Wars movie in cinema in 1977....

I hate horror movie but sometime due to peer pressured I will dare myself to watch it.

I love romantic comedy, romance, action, Sci Fi and suspense movies. Some time a good animation movies will be fun too!

I love watching sequels/ trilogy movies.

To name a few: Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back To The Future, X-men, Jason Bourne, Alien, Jurassic Park, Transformer, Mission Impossible, Fast and Furious, Blade Runner, Planet of The Apes, Jumanji, Avengers (Marvel), Spider-Man, Toy Story, Shrek, Minions,

Life is so much better now with Netflix! Growing up I have to depend on limited dramas that broadcast on our local channels. But having said that I enjoyed most of it.

I love good old family dramas, romantic comedy sitcom, medical dramas, crimes and investigation series.

I have re-watched or binged watching sitcoms like Little House on the Prairie, Friends, How I Met Your Mother, Gilmore Girls, Walking Dead, Grey Anatomy, Stranger Things, Crown,

Please take note that mails from Singapore to other countries may take at least one and a half months (the most) or longer than usual to reach. Due to COVID-19 situation.

• But if it takes longer than that do message me before rating and we will work something out. I will normally do a re-send if there is a need to.

• I always take a snapshot of the swap before putting in the mailbox. This is as a backup proof if anything goes wrong. (I will send thru email to you if you want it.)

• I will make it a point to message those who swap with me to enquire after quite sometime if there is no rating given.

But if my message read and with no reply, I assuming that you did received the swap or could be busy with life. But I really hope you do take your time to rate me.

AND

• I will also message to enquire from my sender swap partner to let them know if I do not receive my swap from them before rating unnecessarily.

• So action can be taken if the swap is lost and the need to re-send.

• I understand if your mail reach late but do not FLAKE!

I will rate my swap on the same day I received and I hope you rate me too after receiving my swap. This is to be fair for both swappers. I think that was the main purpose of joining this platform.

Thank you & Happy Swapping!
