About Me

I am a happily married mom of three boys! My oldest just graduated college, my middle son is a sophomore in college and my youngest is a senior in highschool. I also have 2 puggles that I love to death! I have been with my husband since we were 13 years old,we got married when we were 22, we have been married 25 years this May. We are self employed in our own business and like everyone else just trying to keep working in todays sorry economy.

Favorite Music

I like Soft Rock and Country Music. Music from the 80's is my favorite...I don't care much for RAP! Sorry rap lovers!

I love using song lyrics from some of my favorite songs in my scrapbooking!

Favorite Books

I love to read and enjoy my KINDLE. I still also like to have an "actual Book", so I still buy books even though I have a Kindle! I like Historical Romances, and enjoy Jodi Picoult books. Finding time to read is often difficult but I do try and make time!

Favorite Movies

Julia Roberts, Reese Witherspoon and Richard Gere are my favorite actors so I LOVE, Pretty Woman, Runaway Bride, Sommersby, and Sweet Home Alabama...just to name a few!

Favorite Television

I love Charmed, That 70's Show, Little House On The Prairie, Everbody Loves Raymond and Two and a Half Men.

Favorite Crafts

I love any and all paper crafts. I have always loved pretty papers, markers, pens and pencils of all kinds and colors!

I like to scrapbook, even though I am sooo far behind with my photos. I like to make cards and rubber stamp. I have recently gotten started with Digi Stamps and love that you can re-size them and use them for papercrafting! I also enjoy Digital Scrapbooking.

I love quotes, mainly those that have to deal with life, gratitude, family and friends.

My youngest son is a basketball player and has a full scholarship to play college basketball. A lot of my things that I am behind on with scrapbooking are his basketball pictures and news paper articles. I love any and all basketball embellishments, quotes, rubber stamps, etc.

I am also finding a love for crazy quilting, fabric ATC's and crocheting!

I like DIY projects that involve papercrafts, jewelery and crocheting.

What I Like Currently...

I am currently loving the PEACE icon! Things seem to be a bit crazy for me right now and I am searchng for and longing for some PEACE!!! I find myself buying Peace tote bags, Peace bracelets, drawing Peace Zentangles and doodles!!! Send me some PEACE and I will love it no matter what it is!!!

What NOT to send me....

Please do not send me any food or beverage items. I will not use them and hate to be wasteful!

Goth is not one of my favorite things. Sorry goth lovers.

sloppy, messy and things you would not want to receive yourself!

Beliefs and Mottos....

Politics and Preaching bores me! I say let everyone live their own way, as long as you can put your head down on your pillow at night and be happy in all that you have done is all that matters.

Many of my own life experiences have taught me not to judge others and I like to ask that others do not judge me. We never know what another person carries with them from their own journey in life and the old saying, "If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all", is very very true!

More quotes I like:

ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!

IF YOU'RE GONNA TALK THE WALK THEN WALK THE WALK TOO!

DON'T CRY BECAUSE IT'S OVER....SMILE BECAUSE IT HAPPENED!

I truely believe that life throws things at you all the time. There really is always another mountain to climb and as long as you keep walking you are climbing in the right direction!

I love song lyrics...so many of them say what I feel in shorter ways.....

"There's Always Gonna Be Another Mountain..."

"These Are the Times Of Our Lives..."

"My Wish For You Is that This World Is All That You Want It To Be. May Your Dreams Stay Big, Your Worries Stay Small..."

Comment: Good for a first try. It isn't within the 2 1/2 X 3 1/2 size limit. But It is very beautiful! Just make sure that if you are putting glue or anything on the edges that you cut a little to keep the size... Great job! I love it!
Response: Thanks for your suggestions. These can be addictive I see!

Comment: Wowza! I opened this stuffed envie as slowly as I could so I could savor the beautiful packaging. The handmade envelope with the flower, ribbon, treehouse & poem was simply sublime. The items you sent were just perfect for the crafting projects I am doing now. Thank you SO much for reading my profile & tailoring the goodies to my likes. Take care ;)
Response: Glad you like what I sent! I do try to read profiles to send something my partner will enjoy! I LOVE that treehouse picture too! I wouldn't mind living in that one! LOL!!! Enjoy!

A little bird told me you love making Fabric ATCs!

If you’ve completed less than 30 type 3 swaps and love Fabric ATCs, please feel free to join the regular monthly public swap called, Fabric ATC Swap For Newbies #1 (the swap I hostess is found under Swap-bot’s public swap headings, ATCs, Fabric & Sewing). Whether you are relatively new to Swap-bot or new to making Fabric ATCs, this swap is for you.

I just wanted to let you know that I dropped off your package at the post office today so it should go out first thing tomorrow!

I really appreciate your outlook on things. It's very refreshing to find someone so open minded and happy!

Read my profile and post a comment.

It was very interesting to read your profile and judging from it you seem to be a very nice person. We seem to have a similar taste when it comes to movies. I especially enjoyed to read the beliefs part of your profile- you listed a very nice and true variety there.

I hope you'll make a lot of wonderful swapping experiences here on SB!

Greetings! Your profile is so inspirational! I very much enjoyed reading about you and the quotes you displayed! I read that you enjoy digital scrapbooking...I have not heard of this, but I am very intrigued! I will have to look into it soon! I also enjoy scrapbooking, but I am so, so far behind! I wish nothing but the best for you this year and always! Let the creativity flow in everything you do...

ChristieAnn - you seem like you have a great family, especially if you raised your children with the beliefs and mottos on your profile :)

Happy 2011!

astroblood on Jan 9, 2011:

Hello dear, from your profile it seems like you are laconic but that is so good point! You don't speak nonsence and say just what you need and what is on topic. Love that! Little House On The Prairie is my favourite too! So lovely show. Have a nice day and a lot of fun while swaping! Vidmante

... to Swap-bot and to my Fabric ATC #8 swap. May you enjoy this site as much as I have and do. I'm sure it will be a pleasure getting to know you. Cheers, Le Papillon Vert
