About Me

Mixed media, fiber artist. For about the last 30+ yrs., nearly always cat mom to two. But, as happens, as of 3/21/24, my beloved 14.5 yr old Marian Anderson brown tiger domestic long hair had to leave me and the cat she fostered 13+ yrs ago.

Love paper. I make paper. Love fabric. I have made girls dresses for internatl charities. Trims for their dresses would be great. On my To Do list is to make pet beds from my fabric scraps for animal shelters. I recycle/repurpose for art.

Scientist.

LIKES: Flamingos, No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency, Sea horses (hippocampi), Dark chocolate, coffee, Flowers, Siddhartha, I like floral motifs, circle motifs, buttons, African and Asian inspired designs. I am more fond of jewel, primary and brights than pastels and neutrals, although you got to have them, too.

I like rubberstampIng, cardmaking, junk journals, embellishments, altered books, and making decorated papers.

I like unusual punches and die cuts. Unusual paper napkins. Unusual or teeny buttons. Specialty ribbons and yarn. Charms. Washi.

Harry Potter, August Wilson plays, Star Wars and Star Trek, Peacocks and birds of paradise (both kinds),

How tos and DIYs. Paper folding. Marbling.

Books, handmade booklets-journals,

Saturated Color, Metallics, Rose Gold, Bling, Holiday Stuff.

12/2017- News Flash: I just bought a Scan n Cut -

DISLIKES: No edibles, plez. No tea, please. No Clothing labels from the inside of garments (although I have seen some very dramatic art made from these.) No Convenience/grocery store receipts. No condiment packets from fast food places, I.e., Salt and pepper packets, ketsup packets.

I have enough list pad sheets, unless profile related.

Not fond of cutesy, or kiddie, but quirky is o.k.

Comment: Magenta, what a lovely swap you did. You made such lovely papers. I shall have to resist the urge to hoard them, but I will reserve them for something special. Thank you so much. I love handmade paper. I've made some too, but not often for the process....as you mentioned.

I should have brought home some CT leaves to make more prints myself, lol!! I love the paintbrush image - I saw that video and I haven't tried it out but your print makes me realize that I really really really want to do it!! Thanks for joining the swap!! xxMuggleMom

Comment: Hi Magenta and thanks so much for this Folded Paper Pocket with Tag. This was a fun and easy project and love how this turned out. The photo inside the pocket of the flowered balcony is beautiful - would love to know where this is?? Also like the printed paper you used to make the pocket. Thanks for a fun swap!
Response: Hi, I "inherited" a couple of boxes of mostly vacation photos from a friend's neighbor's "estate". I culled and cropped them.Some of them came in an envelope w/ location/yr., but I was unable to keep that info with all photos. I use them as ephemera and swap name cards. The folded pocket paper came fr. a book I got fr. my library's sale rack "Farbiges Frankfurt" ($1).. full of beautiful drawings. Thanks for the rating and I'm glad u liked what I sent.

What a happy surprise! First the gorgeous envelope (you are so good at that!) to the wonderful goodies inside. The stamped fabric (gasp!) is just perfect - I will use it in a journal.

I really appreciate your kindness and generosity! Thank you so very much!
