About Me

I am really new to swap-bot, but am looking forward to discovering this website bit by bit.

I live in a small town in Sicily, with absolutely no fancy craft-stores around, so I make do with what I can find here and there. No fancy craft supplies for me unfortunately!

Ever since I was little I have been drawing, cartoon characters mainly but also some portraits. And I doodle a lot! Soooo.....

Recently I have taken up on zentangling (which is basically what I was already doing with all the doodling, but maybe a little less organised) and I have to say, I love it, it relaxes the mind, making pattern after pattern.

Favorite Crafts

I don't even craft that often to be honest, but mainly because I can't get my hands on some good supplies, a lot of online shops also don't ship to where I live.. but here I go..

  • Drawing...mainly cartoon styled drawings. Nothing realistic, i'm a little poop with that. :p
  • Zentangling (or doodling :p)
  • A bit of mixed media and collage here and there ..

I also collect stamps, and have been ever since I was young. I have a fairly good collection, if I say so myself. So IF you want to add an extra item to my swaps....a stamp or more would be very much appreciated to add to my collection. :)

Favorite Books

I like, Fiction, Non-fiction, drama, novels, some crime and some biographies

Some of my favourites are:

  • Angela's Ashes - Frank McCourt
  • A Man Called Ove - Fredrik Backman
  • The Storyteller - Jodi Picoult
  • Secret Daughter - Shilpi Somaya Gowda
  • Me Before You - JoJo Moyes

Favorite Movies

I don't watch THAT many movies really.. But a few of my favourites are:

  • Grease
  • The Colour Purple
  • The Green Mile
  • Schindler's List
  • Shawshank Redemption

Favorite Music

I absolutely love music!!

And some of my favourites are:

  • Queen
  • Wham! (yesssss...)
  • Celine Dion
  • Adele
  • Sade
  • Tracy Chapman
  • Simply Red
  • Phil Collins
  • Michael Jackson

And this...

Hopefully I will be able to join some swaps on here, even though I am very limited on supplies.

Who knows, some zentangled ATC's or a drawing or something, maybe even some stamps!

Looking forward to it!

xoxo

I hope you come to love swap-bot a lot! Don't worry about having the "perfect" supplies. People are usually pretty flexible here. And so glad you joined the "Friendlies" group.

I sent you an invitation to another group. It is called Artistic Profile Deco Group. We shorten it to APDG.

You will learn how to put pictures in the comments section on other profiles. We pick themes and have so much fun. You should try it.

Love your profile by the way. Awesome book choices and movies too. I think we have a lot in common. Probably more than I listed in my profile.

Hugs, Kay
