About Me

Hello!

I make things for a living. Or I live to make things. Whichever. Lots of stationery, postcards, and the odd crocheted piece now and then. If you are extremely interested, feel free to check out my etsy store. (The link is above...)

I also really enjoy putting together special packages to mail out to people. You can rest assured that whatever I send to you will be memorable for both you and the postmaster. I am thoroughly convinced that the postal workers at the local post office think I am crazy.

things that tickle my fancy

hand made anything...I enjoy and admire the textile arts and most hand crafts.

rainbows! ... (oh yeah. I'm a long-time fan of them.)

a specific color combination that I currently love is orange and hot pink.....that's if you can't handle a whole rainbow. :P I also like most metallics, I have a slight tendency to spray paint everything gold.

unicorns ... (especially silly ones)

magnets ... (Especially if they feature someone's art or photography!)

kittens ... (if they have laser eyes, all the better)

pretty much any cute illustration of an animal

alpaca

things that should be scary, but end up cute ... or things that should be cute, but end up scary

polka dots

retro advertisements

tea (I drink it all the time) ...and chai

fountain pens and fountain pen inks

books in French - on virtually any subject, and in any condition (tattered, smells like "old book", got it for 10 cents at the second hand store, it doesn't matter bc I love them all!)

zines about pretty much anything (especially minizines, the ones that are 1/8th the size of a standard sheet of paper)

your artwork on a postcard! (that includes photography)

friendship bracelets ... (I'm apparently hooked on them)

barbie sized shoes, clothes, whatever...I like crafting at the one sixth scale, and putting together rooms with accessories for my dolls, then photographing them and sharing the photos online.

pieces of fabric with tiny scale prints on them (like florals) because I use them to make clothes for dolls ;)

mushrooms

the moon, lunar cycles

the sun

astrological charts astronomical charts

tarot cards

rocks, pretty little glass jars, dried herbs as an aesthetic

my fake allergies

coffee

cigarette smoke

beer

Comment: Thank you so much for the amazing card! I love it!! The bat prints are also so delightful! I adore Buffy, but I was never an Angel fan so I've only seen a few sporadic episodes (my mom had a crush on him so I would sometimes watch it with her - lol!) Thank you so much and Happy Halloween!

Comment: Thank you so much. I love the version of Justice you sent. Do you happen to know the name of the deck it came from? I love the extras!!!
Response: I think it’s called “The Pulp of Tarot” — not to be confused with the other pulp decks.

oliviarrow on Jan 15, 2011:

Thanks for the surprise postcard! That was so nice to get. I love your arrow shaped trees. :D

minniemack on Dec 21, 2010:

Hi Cara--thanks for the "small profile surprise" tag postcards. Great idea! And I really liked the stamps on the back. I know I am hard to send to--thanks for tagging me :-)

Potatoez on Nov 22, 2010:

Thank you for the warm welcome :)

minniemack on Nov 17, 2010:

Hi Cara,

Yes, you are right--the yarn is great! Perrrrrfect color for me :-) I'm curious if you use that weight for embroidery? I'm not sure what I'll use mine for, but I know I'll find something!

pamelaz on Nov 11, 2010:

Hi Cara. Thanks for the way cooler Profile Surprise. The "Love Machine" and "Super Fly" made me smile. Also the arrow to the "Lemur" on the envelope made me laugh in the elevator so everyone looked at me. <3 Thanks again!

voodooninja on Nov 10, 2010:

since you can't rate a response to a swap, here's your 5 with heart for the package you sent in response to the awesome package i sent you...now, if you'll excuse me, i need to retreat back to my place of hiding because Jackie Chan is still searching for me after i escaped from him once when he confronted me (I was wondering what he was waving that bill at me for, didn't get your parcel until the next day when i popped out to see if he had gone).

bizzles on Oct 28, 2010:

thanks for the thankyou! the little cards and magnet were cute!

lois on Oct 16, 2010:
