GypsyRose

I'm Janice, the proud single mom( not by choice) of 2 children. John is 25 and Patricia is 22. I live with my son, dog Maggie, and 2 cats Misty and Smokey. My daughter is happily married in Oklahoma (So far away) No grandchildren yet just cats :(

I work retail and love working with people. I'm a huge advocate of paying it forward and giving back. I'm the official MOM of the neighborhood :)

I like hiking( though I don't get out as often). I'm also a big supporter of breast cancer awareness (not just for women)

My favorite colors are mauve, purple, blues, greens. I love pastels. My least favorite color is Red.

Wants- rubber stamps and accessories, embellishments, stationary and envelopes, card stock, patterned paper, stickers, jewelry (bracelets preferable cause my ears are not pierced), teas, and more.

My Swapping Habits: I will always complete a swap and rate. If there is a rare chance it might be late, I WILL message you to let your know. I always try to put some feedback in my comments, and I always respond. May take a day or too, but you will hear back from me.

Please swap things you would like to receive( nothing dirty, torn, etc). Lets build good swap karma :)

I am allergic to lavender, eucalyptus, aloe, and musk, so if you send lotions or candles, please avoid these things.

I'm not really into postcards, sillybands and ATCs,

I am an avid stamp 'in up party hostess. I enjoy all things involving rubber stamps. I like cardmaking, cooking, baking and trying new recipes. I love gardening and bird watching.
