• I'm a total book nerd (historical fiction and fantasy are faves but also middle-grade reads). I'm active on GoodReads as well.

• I love (okay, maybe a little obsessed!) with embroidery.

• I am a stay-at-home dog mom to two chihuahua mixes. I love animals and I've been vegan for years.

• I love cute dragons, unicorns, and dinosaurs (especially the brontosaurus!).

• I love dollhouses and stuffed animals (because you're never too old!) and stickers (because ditto!).

• I admire calligraphy and hand-lettering, though I'm not so great at it myself!

• My favorite animal of all time - turtles and turtoises. Love 'em!

This will be sappy, but if you send it, I'm probably smiling to receive it (told ya, sappy!) But these things would be my special faves:

• Stickers! (no planner, religious or toddler stickers, please, but if they're cute animals, flowers, glittery, or really anything else, I'm in!) Flakes, half-sheets, alphabets, it's all good :) I'm also always looking for birthday stickers because I send a lot of birthday cards!)

• Scrapbook paper, even scraps for card-making

• Postcards! Okay, I'm officially on the postcard bandwagon now and I have a collection of zero. Anything in my interests will be welcome but at this point, pretty much ANYTHING would be welcome!

• Note cards - Watercolor, kraft, plain colors, fun designs, again - not too picky!

• I recently started collecting used postage stamps. I have no idea why but I just like them and want to save them, for some reason!

• Your favorite craft or something you've taken the time to make. Truly, I'd be honored. (There I go being sappy again!)

• Book pages (card making stuff again!)

• Die cut shapes, like hearts, circles, flowers, birds, leaves, etc - any size, shape and color welcome!

• Religious things - this isn't personally my thing, but I've recently started sending cards to seniors and several are religious. So I'm happy to get any religious flat items (stickers, cards, etc) and pass them on!

** If you take the time to send it, I'm going to appreciate it.**

However, I'd rather not have these things:

• I love stickers, but I'd prefer not planner or toddler-type stickers.
• I'm proudly vegan for the animals, so please don't do anything with an "I love meat" or "Mmm, bacon" theme. The same goes for anything related to hunting, rodeos, or similar activities. Just, please, no. Thank you for understanding!
• Food items are also a general no because I'm super picky in that department!
• No profanity, please (yep, I'm that kind of girl, lol!)

• Style: Girly (glittery for sure, but bonus points if it's not falling off all over the place, lol!)

• Colors: Pink, Lilac and Light Blue

• Anything with doodles (not being able to draw, I'm fascinated by those who can!)

• I love almost anything watercolor - whether it's homemade or just a watercolor-look (such as notecards or paper)

• Kawaii because Just. So. Cute!

• And lastly, dollar store stuff is totally okay. I've found some great stuff at our local Dollar Tree's craft aisle.
