About Me

Hi!

I just joined swap bot after hearing several friends mention it on Instagram. I live in the southern US with my two sons who are 16 and 8. This year I started postcrossing, which evolved into postcard swapping on Facebook and Instagram, and starting my IG page called @Southernstampqueen That led to also re-igniting a long lost love of stamps, having collected on and off since about the 3rd grade.

In day to day things, I work for a bank as an accountant and like to paint and doodle a little. I also love Illustrations and goodies with peacocks, snails, or other birds and animals, or anything whimsical or funny.

Looking forward to seeing what swapbot is all about. 🥰

Things I collect or just like

A few years ago I started collecting peacock motif things, like with peacock designs or illustrations. I have a few small peacocks, but nothing huge.

More recently I’m considering snails a favorite and have a few little snail items.

Of course I collect stamps, too, so I guess you could say I do like peacock stamps or snail stamps. I really like any commemorative type stamps, though.

Some things I like:

Peacock illustrations

Special stamps

Snails

Birds

Cats

Garfield

Wonder Woman

Mailart

Rubber stamps

Funny things

Giraffes

Llamas

Elephants

Cardinals

Pretty and colorful stickers

Illustrations > photo cards

Handpainted or handdrawn anything

Phantom of the Opera

Turquoise, purple, aqua, jewel tones, red

Washi tape

Oddities

Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter etc.

Fabric postcards

How I decorate Mail

I like to decorate postcards with washi and stickers and usually 3-4+ vintage stamps. Envelopes are even more fun since there is room for more stickers, drawings, polka dots, washi, and waaaayyyy more room for stamps. I do it because I hope the person I’m sending it to will like it, but also because art is good therapy for me, too.

Something I really want to try is die cutting, but I have yet to buy one of the little machines. I’m also interested in trying a gelli roll. All of the artsy things sound like fun to me.

Things I don't really like

Magnets (my fridge is steel so they won't stick..boo!)

Anything inconsiderate or insulting of someone's religious beliefs, whatever religion it might be

Politics

Anime'

Nudity or profanity (my child may get the mail)

Favorite Places to Shop

Amazon #1

Tuesday Morning

Hobby Lobby

Target

Michael's

USPS

Ollies

Cracker Barrell (let's be real...the food is delicious, too.)
