Sarah - she/they - 30 years old - Austria 🇦🇹/Europe 🇪🇺 - I work in a weird in-between role of tech support and teacher 🧑🏫 - I live with my husband and one-eyed cat "Mister" 🐈- autistic, so forgive me if I sometimes come across as a bit blunt, I don't mean it :)
✅ Animals - especially cats, but also butterflies, corvids, dragonflies, bats... Foxes are cute but not my favourite animal, despite my username! 🐈🦋
✅ Cards and postcards that have been written on. I like to get glimpses into people's lives, traditions, countries...
✅ Anything handmade - you can always send me handmade cards even if it's not explicitly in the swap description! ✂️
✅ Languages and cards in different languages. I can understand German, English, Italian, Finnish and Spanish, feel free to write to me in any of these languages. 🇦🇹🇪🇦🇮🇹🇫🇮🇺🇲
✅ Nature, especially forests, mountains, anything floral ⛰
✅ I love travelling, so anything travel-related, e.g. tell me what to visit in your area!
✅ Colours: green, blue, pink, purple
✅ Glitter unless it's loose and shiny things, holographic paper and stickers, gold foil washi. I'm a magpie!
✅ Patterns, floral and geometric
✅ Photography (your own or store bought photography cards)
✅ Art, especially impressionism and urban sketching, but really anything handmade because I love seeing and learning new styles! 🎨
✅ Anything "unique", even if weird (think a weird postcard that you are not sure why anyone ever decided it should be printed)
✅ "Textured" cards that have some 3D or otherwise textured elements!
✅ Space themed stuff 🪐
✅ witchy and "creepy" things (think illustrations of skeletons with flowers, black cats, potions - no gory things) 🧙♀️
✅ cards with feminist/Pride/"stop climate change" slogans and messages on them 🏳️🌈
Do not send me extras please. I need to get rid of what I have.
❌ artwork or envelopes with lots of transparent type - it's difficult to recycle
❌ religious items and cards
❌ illustrations/photos of babies or children or drawings made by children 👶🏻
❌ not a big fan of apes, monkeys and horses 🐒
❌ balloons, I have a weird phobia of them 🎈
❌ Disney, kawaii, superheroes, anime 🦸🏼♀️
❌ fine and loose glitter that gets everywhere
❌ "toxic positivity" quotes and quotes like "live laugh love"
✂️ papercraft, especially making postcards
✏️ drawing with ink or watercolour pencils, fineliner doodles, alcohol markers
✒️ writing with fountain pens and pretty inks
🧵 sewing - mainly clothes for myself and friends
Please be aware that my mail can be SLOW! I live rurally. The "post office" is just a supermarket, so I can't guarantee it will be stamped and processed the day I drop it off. ⌛️
If you haven't received anything from me 1 month after the sent date (Europe) or 2 months after the sent date (outside of Europe), please contact me and I'm happy to resend ⏳

LOL, you're a genius. I was wondering how the heck to make ink swabs. A brush makes total sense.... and I don't have a spare one for this purpose. Oy vey. Only makeup brushes in my house... but I'm not risking those, lol. I already get ink stains on my fingertips. I'm going to look super weird with ink stains on my face. Hahahaha... Anyway, cheerios!
Have a wonderful holiday!
