We are now moved and settled in our new location! Ready to start swapping again. :)

I am a married Mom of 3 little boys in Alberta, Canada. I also have a lovely chocolate labrador named Percy. While I am a full time stay at home mom, I am doing my Education degree part time. I eventually want to be a preschool teacher.

My hobbies/interests: I am a musician and play in a band here in my city. I am the vocalist. I love all types of music, especially rock, jazz and soul/funk.

I would love to send people things that brighten their day. I am interested in writing letters, sending happy mail and sending crafts. I love sending and receiving any type of snail mail. I think swapping is a fantastic way to get to know lots of people!! :)

Things I love to receive!!

*Postcards sent naked and stamped with a message from the sender.

*Stickers. I am not picky about these. I use stickers for pretty much everything, from decorating envelopes and letters to notes for my boys in their lunches, etc.

*Nice pens! Gel or otherwise. I especially love bright colours and metallic ink.

*Washi tape. I just discovered this stuff and I love it!

*Journals/notebooks. I love having pretty books to jot thoughts down

*Stationery sets ( pretty sheets with a matching envelope)

*Notecards- never can have too many of these!

*Scrapbook paper

*Stamps

*Poems

*Quotes

*Origami

*Playlists - I love discovering new music/artists!

I also don't mind if you send swap items that my boys would like. They especially love STICKERS. If you send with my boys in mind, this is what they like:

Boy#1: Loves Robots, Superheroes of all kinds, and Supervillains.

Boy #2: Loves Dinosaurs, trains, brightly coloured/glittery things.

Boy #3: Loves anything brightly colored, Yo Gabba Gabba (if you know what that is) and cars/trucks.

I would prefer if you didn't send me the following things, just because they won't go to use.

ATC stuff - haven't really got the time to make them at the moment

Embroidery floss

*Loose glitter (I am fine with glitter being on cards/papers, just not the glitter in bags)

*Tea/coffee - don't drink it! If a swap requires it, you can send whatever you want or hot chocolate. ;)

*Thank you cards (that actually say Thank you on the outside" I prefer cards that can be used for a variety of purposes.
