Hello

Welcome to my page!

A little about Me:

I grew up on the Oregon coast and I have lived here all of my life. I am a Native American. I am a mother of two amazing people.

What I enjoy:

I have collected postcards since I was a child. I am just getting back into swapping again, after taking a bit of a break. I co-founded a Postcard swap group. I have made some great friends along the way, and I hope to make many more.

Besides collecting/trading postcards, I have a great love of photography, writing, beading, traveling, and I volunteer for Find A Grave. I am an avid reader. My favorite genre is post-apocalyptic, but I also love historical romances.

Likes/Dislikes:

Likes: I love washi tape, decorative tape, stickers, die-cuts, colorful paper/envelopes and other craft items. I enjoy interesting stamps and postmarks. I love to receive envelopes and cards that are decorated.

My favorite colors are black & pink.


Dislikes: *Ad/Free postcards *Postcards that are blank on the front *Homemade cards/postcards *Postcards that are written to someone else *Anything Religious or Political. (everyone has their own beliefs/opinions) *Cartoon/Anime *Scented items

Postcards of interest:

Collections I am currently working on:

*Native American/American Indian/Alaska Natives

*State Map Cards

*Map cards in general

*Montage

*The Walking Dead/Zombies

*Ghost Towns

*Cemeteries/Head Stones/Mausoleums /Memorials/etc. (Tasteful)

*LARGE LETTER/Greetings From...

*Oregon Trail

*Trails in general

*Caves/Tunnels/Caverns/Canyons

*Forts

*Light Houses

*Animals: Bears (Black/Brown/Grizzlies), Zebras, Eagles, Wolves, Elk, Deer, Coyote, & Baby animals

*Odd shaped/Die-cut

Swaps/Ratings:

I do my best to send my swaps out as soon as possible. I like to visit profiles to get to know my swap partners before mailing.

If you have not received my swap or have an issue with what I sent, PLEASE contact me before leaving a negative rating. I will offer the same courtesy before leaving anyone a negative rating.

I try and rate partners immediately upon receipt of swaps. I hope you will do the same for me.

Take care!

Thank you for visiting my page. I look forward to swapping with you. :)

Comment: Hi Shyla! I checked out your profile and see you've been for a bit. Nice to see you back. I'm not sure we had swapped in the past. I've been here since March 23, 2008 too.😄 Anyway, TYVM for the Penguin Lantern Press PC. Which I absolutely love Penguins! Oh wow, You're Native American as well. You're the only one here besides myself that are. I don't put labels on heritage, only just to let let which tribe I'm from. For me, It's all one nation. My great grandfather had me so much of the Shoshone. I miss hearing his stories! What stories he passed down to me, are passed to my children. Which in turn, they have passed thier children. 😄
Response: You're welcome! Yeah, I took a long break from postcard swapping as I just didn't have the space, and I focused on other hobbies for a bit. I've missed it so much, so I'm happy to be back. I looked at my old records, and don't see that we swapped in the past. I'll be hosting more swaps in the future, as I just love doing that. Take care. :)

Hi Shyla! Three things about myself: 1) I started collecting postcards when I read in "Archie" comics that Dilton Doiley collected postcards:) 2) I love collecting maximum cards but it is pretty difficult to find people who like to swap this type of cards. 3) I don't really watch TV but the last TV show I religiously followed was "Downton Abbey" :)
