supersquirrel

Hi - Susan here - born and raised in Washington State. Single with a stray cat. I love the Pacific Northwest - the cool weather and mild seasons. I'm definitely a homebody. Since I don't share my home with anyone other than the cat, I don't have a craft room, I have more like a little cluttered craft cabin - knotty pine walls and all. Nothing fancy - just cozy.

I'm a sizzix/sidekick fiend, I dabble in mixed media and plan to master the Geli Plate someday. I love the whole junk journal process.

My perfect day would include shopping, crafting and gardening with junk food aplenty. Spending time feeding the squirrels and birds. I even have a few chickadees that will take seed from my hand.

• Shopping: My favorite is finding vintage ephemera at thrift stores and garage sales

• Music: HOME FREE, PENTATONIX, Country, Christian and R&B

• TV: Curse of Oak Island, Elementary, Rizzoli & Isles, Million Little Things, Madam Secretary, 911, 911 Lone Star, All Rise, Bull, The Equalizer, Matlock, Fire Country, Tracker...

• Movies: Dragonfly (Costner), The Proposal (Bullock/Reynolds), Sixth Sense (Willis), The Day After Tomorrow (Quaid), Thomas Crown Affair (Russo), Return To Me (Duchovny/Driver), The Game (Douglas/Penn)

• Color: Greens, Browns, Oranges - I guess the fall palette is my favorite but I appreciate all colors

• Likes: DECORATIVE NAPKINS, TISSUE PAPER and THIN PAPERS for collage, Washi Tape, Washi Stickers, ATC Embellishments, Stencils, Birds, Cats, Snails, MUSHROOMS and Squirrels. I like vintage images and ephemera.

• I tend to lean towards the grungy style.

• I love the magic of rub ons and I love "tickets".

• Not so much: Not a fan of teacher/reward/kid stickers, sock monkeys or foam.

*I collect **** 3 of hearts **** Playing Cards!

Wish list:

*Asking everyone I know to pick up paint sample chips for me

*Anything for junk journals which is practically anything :)

*Washi stickers/PET stickers

*Used vintage postage stamps

*Any bits and pieces of Tim Holtz / Dina Wakley

*Decorative tissue paper

*Any pieces of homemade, gelli, watercolor or unusual papers

***DEC 2022: Tried my hand at CLUSTERS/SNIPPETS. Why didn't I hold on to lace and tulle ?😭? I'm having fun sewing these bits together!!

I've also discovered that I love to receive mail in a yellow envelope. ☀️ It's like sunshine in my mailbox ☀️
