About Me

I have 2 lovely children, a 5 year old and a 3 year old. I am married and we have 3 dogs as well. I enjoy letter writing, doing diamond painting, paint by number, building Lego kits, sewing felt plushies, watching movies, going to amusement parks and fairs, adult coloring, crafts with my kids, and thrift shopping.

I love doing brain teasers, puzzles, math problems, logic puzzles, high school and college textbook questions, workbooks and similar things for fun. I love thinking and learning. My brain thrives when occupied.

I am into anything true crime related. If you have a local case you'd like to share, I'd love to hear about it.

I resell thrifted items on Ebay, mostly vintage things. I specialize in vintage baby clothes, so that is a big passion of mine. I have a lot of fun thrifting and reselling. I am also a Doordash driver and love doing that a few days a week. Recently I completed training to become a Crisis Text Line counselor (volunteer). That has become one of the most rewarding things I've ever done! I really enjoy helping people on the platform.

Some things I like are peacocks, 90's stuff, Nirvana, Post Malone, all types of stationery, stickers, grunge, neon colors, Beetlejuice, Goosebumps, Forest Gump, Mickey Mouse, under the sea theme, outer space theme, cute pens, colorful things, coloring small pictures or postcards, mixed media art and all things vintage.

For swaps: Postcards I enjoy are: handmade, any of my above interests, non-travel themed. If swap calls for travel themed I like bright colors and greetings from.

Things I'd love to receive are: stickers, address labels, swap cards, stationery and letter sets, cool pens, lined cute paper, memo sheets, letters, vintage unused postage stamps, a doodle from you, squished pennies for my sister's collection.

I don't really care for washi samples, reward stickers, ribbon or twine, or friendship books.

I love receiving decorated envelopes!

Letter swaps: I love newsy, lengthy letters about your day, hearing about interesting things that make you YOU and seeing what things we may have in common. If you aren't into writing long letters, no worries, I love EVERY letter I receive.

Comment: Thank you for your nice letter! I've always enjoyed crafting also but I think paper crafts is the thing I've really stuck with the longest. This was a cute idea for a swap, by the way... I can't resist buying cute memo / list sheets but don't always know how to use them all! Thanks again for everything you sent. Best wishes!

Comment: Thank you so much for such an awesome swap! The tic-tac-toe board is so much fun! We’ve played it already and enjoy it so much! I love the Frankenstein diamond painting! It’s hanging in my craft room. It looks great in there! The Frankenstein watercolor painting on the card is so cute! I absolutely adore it! Thank you for the extra stickers, too! This was such a fun swap!

Comment: I read almost anything, though stay mostly away from horror and true crime. But my book club right now is reading a true crime book, so . . . . Besides that book, I have 2 other physical books in process and 1 audiobook.

Welcome to Absolutely Inspired Arts! We have lots of swaps on board, so come on by and check them out!

PS - I just read: "This Book Will Bury Me" by Ashley Winstead. It's about true crime amateur sleuths. You might like it!
