About Me

Jan2025

If you still have any, please use the Ruth Bader Ginsberg SHEro stamp on your envie to me! UPSIDE DOWN also - that way her face doesn't get marked. I really want to receive as many canx stamps of her!


Do you love purple💜, come purple out with us:

Purple Craze group

PHOTOs- I take photos of all my swaps & envie's before I send them out - so I will email a copy of the photos if something goes awry or gaga with the US post to verify that I'm not a flaker or flaking. Please let me know if there's a problem and I'll gladly send it again. Thank a Postie for all their hard work for us crafty swappers.


Owl Post

I will contact you if my swap doesn't get there within a reasonable time because I like to know if the time & effort I spent making a treasure made it to you. Unless overseas, then I generally wait 30days or more. But please, do me the CURTSEY of acknowledging my efforts timely.

Aloha! I give ❤️❤️ BECAUSE in a world full of people judging, criticizing, thumbs up/down, like/disliking everything, if someone took the time out of their day to buy a stamp, send a card/note/letter, walk to the mailbox, etc... just to brighten my day, then I am grateful because nobody is forced to do anything they don't want to do.

So thanks in advance for giving of YOUR TIME, spending YOUR money to mail me your special creations. You didn't have to share so that speaks volumes of your character - in my humble opinion...if your dislike list is long, this too says much of your character. I'm here to learn and experience other people, not just "stuff" & "things".

I put a lot of thought & 💕 into sending out your happy mail because I want to bring a smile to your door.

Comment: My Dear Rachel, Your hat pins are darling! I am quite envious of those gorgeous beads and must search out some of my own when I am in town next. With affection, Elizabeth PS, not sure why the star didn't show up when I first rated, but I have added it again!

Comment: Hello Toni. Thanks for the swap (including the extra card). I must say, I got a chuckle out of some of the cards. It's helpful that they were identified. I initially thought the dragon was a sleeping dog. As for the "lost map"... not much can be said about that! LOL! All the best to you in the new year.!
Response: I wish I had a pet dragon but my doggie is quite the fire breathing terrier, lol!! Happy New Year to you and yours. Thank you for the💜xxMuggleMom

Comment: Thank you for sharing! I have 'Here One Moment' on my library reserves but I'm afraid I'm not in the right headspace for it right now, is it really sad?
Response: I don't think Here One Moment was sad at all - its so quirky and fabulously crazy but maybe someone could find it sad. The ending was wild! I love your list - I saw quite a few books we have in common - in fact, I just finished, last night no less - All That Remains by Sue Black. Thanks for hosting this fun swap - I love the format and am sharing it with my book club baddies at the public library! Have a fabu 2025!! xxMuggleMom
