About Me

**FYI five-cent increase for Forever stamps, July 13, from 73 cents to 78 cents. **

This is Rita, my new Jack Russell, can you believe someone abandoned that face?

Don’t know what’s going on with postal system- last year I had more than a few I had to resend. This year, I had a card returned for .46 in state, & not overweight or too thick. Today I received a card again, not overweight or thick. Another.46 to receive it. I’ve also sent an international postcard 3x & still hasn’t received :(

I really like receiving postcards without plastic wrapping. I like the stamps & marks on the card, otherwise it seems more like a journal page without the stamps

Rethink Waste: Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, Recycle. Reuse packing materials & pass on things I can’t use.

My name is Sandra, married 32 years, and live in Ohio.

Married my husband after dating 8 weeks. He has 5 children & I have 2. We have 18 grandchildren & 14 great children.

Retired after working since I was 16. I’ve done factory, retail, customer service & last was medical billing.

Love taking photos. And over the years many craft things, such as sewing, ceramics, and now paper crafting.

Comment: Hi Sandra and thank you so much for this sweet index card with the darling vintage girl's image. I love all the texture you were able to create with the layers of fabric and paper and the white feather. So unique! And I was able to take all my crafting supplies with me to the new house! Moving never gets easier, but it was a short distance move which helped. And my craft room is just about the same size and dimensions as the one in our old house, so moving things in was pretty simple. The hard part: packing it all up! Cheers!

Your puzzle piece ATC for the Mystery Supply swap came out great, Sandra. I like the dark and mysterious vibe it's sending. Thanks and I'll post pix soon. Cheers!

Hi Sandra. I just received the USATC Mystery Supply ATC #3. You did a great job of using the chain. So fun! I'll post photos in the group forum once I receive the others. Cheers!

Hi Sandra- I LOVE šŸ’œ your Mystery Supply ATC #2 card. It's so well done, using so many mediums. The pumpkin mirror image is so unique. Thanks also for the Telugu book page. What a gorgeous text...I don't think I can give that one away on an ATC. Will post all pix to group forum once received.
