About Me

I am 29 yrs. old, married to a wonderful husband since Jan. 4th 2003! I was introduced to scrapbooking by the greatest mother-in-law in the world! And she introduced me to swap-bot! I love to scrapbook when I can and love going to scrapbook crops when I get a chance too. I have 3 pets, 1 ferret, Harley, and a very sweet beagle my mother-in-law gave us, his name is Tazer, and our newest memeber Peepers the flying squirrel that my hubby rescued. That's my family and I love them very much. I am a collector of a few things, like music boxes, old vintage looking scrapbooking paper, and figurerines made by Willow Tree.

Favorite Music

My favorite music varies from classic rock, alternative, and christian(contemperary, rap, old hymns, rock) music.

Favorite Books

I just love Steven King, Wilbur Smith, Zora Neal Hurston, Langston Huges, and most any poetry and books from the Harlem Reniassance Era.

Favorite Movies

Don't really have favorite movies, I just watch what ever if it's good, I'll see it again. Movies that I liked were Pretty woman, The Notebook, The Lake House, City of Angels, Constantine, The Passion of Christ, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory(the old verison), Bed Knobs and Broom Sticks, Finding Nemo, Wall E, Over the Hedge(Yes I am a kid at heart lol!), Mary Poppins, 13 Ghosts, Pride and Prejustice, Cinderella, Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmations, Fantasia, Fox and the Hound, Milo and Otis, Alice in Wonderland, and Sleeping Beauty. I love the old Disney Classics! I grew up on them!

Favorite Television

I like to watch Paranormal State, Intervention, and Sons of Anarchy on Wednesday thats about it. Other than that its whatever is on at the time.

Favorite Crafts

I love to scrapbook, cross stitch, and try any thing crafty that I might like. I love to swap on swap-bot, I haven't done any private swaps yet but always open to suggestions.

Favorites other

My favorite colors are red, black, blue, brown, and pink. My favorite food is italtian. My favorite cook is a tie between my hubby and mother-in-law, but sshh don't tell my mother lol! I love stickers, penguins, purses, comfortable shoes, spoiling my pets and hubby!

Dislikes

I don't like liars, cheaters, rude people, closed minded people, kiddie stickers, strong smelling perfumed stuff, books that don't catch my interest in at least the first 20 pages, and I think thats about all I can think of lol! Things I wouldn't like to receive: 1. Nothing orange(or in the orange family), lemon, gardina smelling or tastes like. 2. No really kiddie stickers 3. No on the darkside things(Gothic, tarot,wican, etc.) 4. No books way out there in left field.

Likes and things I would like

I like cute little animal stickers especially penguins, a Stephen King book or any of my favorite authors, vintage looking 12X12 scrapbooking paper, love to learn new scrapbooking tips and tricks, pressed flowers, different brads and eyelets, ribbon, stickers with sayings on them, and making new friends! Things I would like: 1. Christian Themed ATC. 2. Letters and Stationary 3. Any thing that smells like sweet pea
4. Any thing that smells like cumber melon 5. Journals 6. Stickers 7. Handmade Purse 8. Any book by my Favorite Authors 9. Recipes from any where around the world. 10. Christian music from around the world. 11. Any thing to make ATCs 12. Vintage any thing stickers, fabric, paper, newspaper articles, old ads, etc. 13. Spongebob Dotee Doll.

My Favorite Poem

I know why the caged bird sings

A free bird leaps on the back of the wind and floats downstream till the current ends and dips his wing in the orange suns rays and dares to claim the sky.

But a bird that stalks down his narrow cage can seldom see through his bars of rage his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom.

The free bird thinks of another breeze and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn and he names the sky his own.

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream his wings are clipped and his feet are tied so he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom.

-Maya Angelou
