I'm a 40 yr old Mom of 2 lovely daughters~ Photographer & Artist! & I am a photoshop goddess by trade... I love to trade & collect quirky things... little toys , strange faces (esp. screaming), post cards (really love older & local history the best but love all!), ATC's, paper dolls, I love all kinds of flowers & garden stuff, love vintage , artsy, all all time period things esp. Medieval & historical anything!!! I'm sure I have left a few things out.... Please feel free to ck out my flicker, as of late it's mostly ATC's & art dolls, and let's not forget my blythe girls!!! Which I have 5! My original Kenner(fiona Skye) GR (Ruby Cate) Primadollys Aubrey (Sophia Grace), Ebony (Lulu Belle) and a custom ashlette w/ pink mohair!!! (Augusta May) and we won't forget my little Wanda wonder frog (Gertie) and my 2 wonderful Hujoo's Mimzy & Lyra! I really like angels, fairys & mythical creatures,

I also REALLY LIKE french country.... birds, flowers (peonys, poppies, english roses, cherry blossoms & fuzzy dandelions) and I am a beginner in sewing but love primitive dolls & anything americana as long as it primitive looking.... civil war~ish.... esp Folk art!!! Also like more pastel type colors..... most fav are Blue Green and some pink brown yellow.... I also like receiving papers ribbons BUTTONS (vintage is always better but not a must!) eyelet lace & small trims
Things I dislike! beads, I like them BUT don't use them! Any Disney Characters Neon Colors Funky prints Cross stitch Makeup Store bought stuffed animals & statues put it this way I HATE commercialized stuff! Dogs or cat things pencils (I have to many) Peppermint tasting things Perfume boyish things rockabilly & victorian things lace that is too frilly (I do like vintage & eyelet or crocheted but that's it!) Don't like strong scents such as peppermint or vanilla sugar! (Love eucalyptus and spearmint!cherry blossom, and magnolia) more soft scents ~Not sweet!

Love fuzzy dandelions, poppies, peonys, cheery blossoms and english roses... Angels, fairys, that are nicely done NOT some that are considered gawdy & over the top.... don't know how else to explain it! Love anything time period oriented, 18th century & Medieval the most!
