*Hey everyone! I'm going to be going on vacation until December, so I will not be hosting or participating in any swaps until then. I'll likely be hosting more Kpop Pen Pal swaps, and Whimsy Envelope swaps at that time, and participating in some kawaii goodness within my groups ^_^ I'll miss you all in the meantime!!

Hello there, Swap bot land!

A little about me: I am a professional artist, teaching art classes to the masses! At home I mainly focus on graphite portraits and sketches although lately in my spare time I create polymer clay charms and figurines, fan art of all kinds and scrapbooks. I love music, rock and kpop consume my world! I'm huge on adventure, going new places, and facing my fears head on! I recently went skydiving, which was horrifying!!! But I'm so glad I did! I look forward to swapping with all of you!

Important Cliff Notes for a Quick Profile Skim!

Side Note: I know my profile is a taaaaaad long, so here are some cliff notes for the casual skimmer lol My absolute favorite things, that would call for a gigantic super heart instantly are: anything related to BigBang, T.O.P., The Rose (Dojoon in particular!), Ville Valo or the band HIM, G1 Petite My Little Ponies, fairy kei fashion, Jungkook, Bleach's Ulquiorra, Kamisama Kiss and for anything Kogepan! Any of these topics would be forever appreciated!!**

 Very Important Note to all of my swap
 partners! I will always finish my swaps and put 
 them out for the mail by the send by date at 
 the latest, and usually do my best to have 
 them out early ^_^  However, my local 
  postman STILL does not seem to stop by my 
 street every day, as our old postman did. (This 
 has unfortunately been happening off and on 
 for too long -.- ) And because my home and 
 work are not close to the post offices, I rely 
 heavily on my mailbox for outgoing mail, so 
 this is quite frustrating, especially if I've 
 popped it in the box before my send by date, 
 only to have him stop by a couple days later -.- 
 This being the case, I will be doing my best to 
 make a drive into town to mail my swaps, even 
 just letters, to ensure their proper delivery. In 
 the meantime, for any partners who may have 
 gotten their swap from me late, or who are still 
 waiting, I do apologize for this very much! I 
 appreciate your patience, and your 
 understanding! Love you all!!

I've also decided to redo my wardrobe with a Fairy Kei aesthetic, so anything cute and pastel, particularly cotton candy pink!, but also soft lilac purples, super soft pastel blues or sea foamy greens would really make me smile! I love socks, accessories like hair bows, clip in cat ears, rings and bracelets. I'm starting over wardrobe wise so I'd be exstatic for anything fitting this theme

KPOP!

Hooray for Kpop! My top groups are BIGBANG and THE ROSE!!!

I am head over heels for BigBang ^_^ Any and all BigBang-ness would be so dearly appreciated and loved!! Instant heart! Millions and millions of hearts to you, my love forever and tons of good juju!!!!!! I also adore The Rose (my 2nd fave kpop band!) with all of my kpop heart!! So they're also super juju millions of heart worthy!!

Some of my other fave groups and biases are: Block B and PO, BTS and Jungkook, VIXX and Ravi, Cross Gene and Takuya, Drug Restaurant, F(x) and Amber

There are many things that I absolutely adore, and that really make my day!! These are some of my most favorite things in the world:

The band HIM and Ville Valo! They've been my favorite band growing up and remain my absolute #1 band of all time!

The Kpop group Bigbang, especially TOP! They're my #1 Kpop group, and I love anything and everything relating to them! TOP is my bias, so instant hearts for any TOP reference or goodies ^_^

The Kpop group The Rose, especially Dojoon, but who am I kidding, I love them all!!!! This group is my #2 kpop group, but only because I can't have two #1s....or can I?! They truly are soooo close to number one, them and Bigbang are roommates in my heart and live together in musical harmony lol Anything relating to The Rose is instant millions of hearts!!

I adore teeny tiny My Little Ponies! I can no longer collect the large sized toys and figures, unless they are Applejack or Luna (I have a small army of both of these characters!) I DO collect millions of the teeny figures! So like the old school Petite Ponies from the 80s, the Blind Bag ponies from the Friendship is Magic era, Dolly Mix ponies from Gen 3, as well as the Ponyville Ponies from Gen 3, and the newer Cutie Mark Crew figures! I absolutely LOVE teeny tiny ponies!!

NumNoms! I have an unnatural obsession of these little toys! I love the traditional Nums and Noms, and also all of the variations, the snack packs, the stack-able ones, the cereal, etc. I even caved and got that giant NumNom pillow from Target, and now that's my bed time pillow ^_^ lol

Kogepan is my absolute favorite Kawaii character!! I love him and his whole toasty (and not so toastly) family!! Anything Kogepan related would truly make my day! And likewise for Hannari Tofu! They are just too cute!!

Tokidoki is a huge love of mine! I just adore the characters so much, and especially the Hello Kitty crossovers! I'm particularly fond of all of the pastel lines, and really don't care for the darker or more primary colored lines, though I still appreciate their cuteness!! I really love the Donutella, Unicorno, Mermicorno, and Moofia families the most!! I found the cutest purse at Barns and Noble, a strawberry Moofia and my heart burst!!!!

I love pastel kawaii goodness! Particularly sticker flakes, lettersets (folded are fine ^_^), and large and especially extra large memo pads! I also love washi tape, I can use it for pen paling and scrapbooking!

I love pink, mostly pastel pink, anything floofy, cute, kawaii, and just downright adorable! I also love pastel purple like lilac ^_^ I love all pastels, but those two are my go tos!

J Michael Tatum is my favorite american Voice Over Actor, so anything relating to any of his characters would be wonderful!!! I particularly love Tomoe from Kamisama Kiss, and Kraft Lawrence from Spice and Wolf ^_^

I adore Ulquiorra from Bleach, so anything relating to him would be more than appreciated!! He's my ultimate favorite anime character ever!!!

I do adore Pusheen, particularly in pastels ^_^ I also really really love her unicorn aesthetic!

I love skulls, anatomically correct, NOT SCARY! But otherwise I adore them! My whole house is decked out in skully decor, jars, containers, loose skulls sitting on everything, paintings etc. I also love super cute kawaii skulls, like little pink ones, and skullies with bows ^_^

I love Re-ments! I love the cute little sets, but also love even random miss placed pieces or loose little bits! The tiny foods are my absolute faves and I really love them! Tiny little sweets, breads etc. Just too cute!!!

I also really love BTS's BT21 character Cooky! Jungkook is my favorite, and I was so pleased to see Cooky was pink! So not only is he my bias, but he fits my aesthetic ^_^ So perfect!!! I'm trying really hard to find the Halloween goodies, but they're always sold out (*crys a million tears*)

I am not huge on makeup, but I DO love anything glitter, or super cute eye shaddows! I also really love Kbeauty, and I'm always looking for samples to try! I think I have a pretty good skin regime so far, though I'm always open to tweaking some things here or there, so if you have a product that you swear by, or would like to recommend, I'd love to hear from you!

I adore Sakura / Cherry Blossoms, and branches!! I also love various Japanese themed stickers such as Kokeshi dolls , or tea cup/kettle stickers in general related stickers ^_^

I LOVE Kawaii stickers!! All brands, especially San-X and any Kawaii Girls stickers ^_^ If you could find any Kogepan or Hannari Tofu I would probably cry a million tears!! Instant hearts for these lovely characters!!

FOR HALLOWEEN! I love Skull stickers!! Especially anatomically correct skullies or glittery style ones! Also pink! lol

I also have been looking far and wide for vintage (1980s) stickers of My Little Pony, and Peppermint Rose, As well as older Lisa Frank stickers! Any would be very well loved!

In regards to STICKER DISLIKES:

I really can't stand sports related stickers, or things that would be considered 'boy' themes like robots, ninja turtles, batman, that sort of stuff, I just really don't like any of that stuff, and honestly it'll just end up in the trash -.- I don't even like keeping it around to re-gift. Likewise for teacher reward stickers, and holiday stickers. I'm also not a fan of religious stickers of any kind. I just don't have a use for them, and would rather they go to a home they'll be used and appreciated :) Thank you for your understanding!

I currently use an A5 Carpe Diem Platinum planner that I am IN LOVE WITH! It's so much easier to stay organized with so much extra space ^_^ LOVE!

Things I love for my Planner:

I love pastel pinks, purples, and aqua!

I utilize tons of kawaii stationary, washi and stickers in my planner. As well as Kpop themed stationery and stickers! (Mostly stickers!)

As well as lots of pastel floral themes, or pastel bows!

Water tracking stickers as well as gym day stickers! They help me keep track of my healthy goals!

I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to receiving swaps, it really makes me happy to receive something that shows how much care and thought went into putting it together! So you pretty much can't go wrong if you're doing your best ^_^ Though,

THERE ARE SOME THINGS I WISH NOT TO RECEIVE:

1. Please PLEASE nothing that smells of smoke VERY IMPORTANT! (I have a very sensitive nose, and smoke or very strong perfumes make me feel ill),
2. Please no religious items of any kind, I have no use for them and would much rather they go to someone else who would appreciate them!
3. Please nothing dirty or torn. No junk!
4. Please no Holiday things unless the swap calls for them
5. I don't mind unbranded kawaii when swap allows, though I dislike bootleg, knockoff, or kawaii of a very poor quality, stickers that don't stick, bad graphics, etc. That goes for Sanrio/Hello Kitty too!
6. Please no Dollar Spot (Target), Dollar store, Michaels Craft Store, etc, Hello Kitty items.

Here I'll just indulge myself in some of my favourite images
