I'm a crafty minx with a dark sense of humour. I love my fur baby Tilly and my 65 year old tortoise Kosmo.
I couldn't begin to list all the artists on my ipod, but I'm happy listening to most female vocalists and great songs with a strong beat.
Some of my favourite artists include Tina Arena, Natalie Merchant, Damien Rice, Gloria Estefan, Beyonce, Black Eyed Peas, Timbaland, Adele.
I also adore musicals; I could listen to them all day long and not get bored. Some of my favourites are Spamalot, Starlight Express, Les Miserables and Avenue Q.
I'm a great fan of Disney soundtracks too - cheese on top of cheese - I know!
Goggle Eyes by Anne Fine was my favourite childhood book.
As an adult I mainly read travelogues, my favourite being "Round Ireland With A Fridge" by Tony Hawks. I also love comedy books by writers such as Danny Wallace and Dave Gorman.
My favourite movie of all time has to be Forrest Gump. Many great films have been made since, but this never fails to be moved from my top spot. I also love anything Disney Pixar creates.
I'm a big Tom Hanks fan (Castaway is my second favourite) and I really enjoy films starring Australian actress Judy Davis.
I've got a bit of a soft spot for movies from my childhood such as The Goonies, Home Alone and The Princess Bride.
I'm a bit of a nerd when it comes to TV. I mostly watch documentaries on the human psyche of foreign climes. Oh, and anything on the Food Network!
I really enjoyed Lost and FlashForward, and back in the day I was a massive Friends fan. Thanks goodness for DVD box sets. I also love switching between music channels if I'm working.
I'm told I was a creative child, but my earliest memory of crafting was cross stitching my name in 10 count aida when I was about 6.
Nowaways, I mostly make cards, dabble in mini books, altered art and love stitching on card. I've always got some kind of cross stitch that I'm working on - currently a huge Russian palace piece.
I'm a huge fan of American food - particularly marshmallows and peanut butter. I don't count calories so feel free to send me something sinful!
I'd absolutely love to try Peeps - we can't get them in the UK!

Hi- I just saw that you are my partner for the (RED) 4 photos and note swap. Yea! I have to tell you Forrest Gump is one of my fave movies too! Here's a bit of trivia for you. Did you know the running scenes in FG were done by Tom's brother, Jim? If you haven't tried peeps and want to. Hit me up for a private swap. They are delish! Look forward to your swap :-) Kaye
