My name is Frances. I'm a single parent to 3 lovely children, 2 girls aged 11 and 12 and a son aged 9. I love card making and ATCs and enjoy making these with my 3 children. I enjoy reading, cross stitch, cooking with the children and watching them in school productions.

All the 1's and 3's you see on my profile are from 2009 when I was having problems with the postal service. Most packages were sent out 2 and sometimes even 3 times but still didn't arrive so please don't just look at these when considering me for your swaps. I do not flake intentionally. Please contact me before rating if you have not received your parcel

I love most pop music my favourite band is Take That. I enjoy Musicals too. I would love to go and see The Sound of Music

I love reading Autobiographies and also stories based on Britain in World War 2

My favourite movies are The Green Mile and The Bone Collector

I love watching NCIS, all the CSIs' NUMB3RS, Holby City, Casualty, The Bill and anything based around the emergency services

I love card and ATC making, I use a variety of embellishments on my projects such as buttons, brads, feathers, beads, pretty papers etc. I enjoy various techniques for example: Iris folding, Tea bag folding, heat and dry embossing, stamping. I have tried quilling but I wasn't very good so I think I need to have another go at it. I would also love to try paper pricking and stitching onto cards

I love to try most sweets/candy. If I don't like it I'm sure one of my 3 children will. I can't really say there is one sweet yet that they have tried and said they do not like. They love skittles, jelly tots, jelly beans, sherbert, licquorise, fizzy/sour sweets. Anything you want to send I'm sure we will love.

I drink tea most of the time although I do enjoy fruit juice/squash. I have 3 children that drink coffee and drinking chocolate so any of these that you may wish to send will be loved too.

My daughter Kayleigh Wade is 11 years old. She is an active girl who loves dancing and running. Kayleigh loves anything to do with crafts. She enjoys making ATC, cards and making things with her Hama beads, Aqua beads and Bindeez.
