Fall Journal Pages
Starting this small slimline poetry journal with written poems plus all things related to seasons and home. I like die cutting and stamping so my journal pages look a little more like handmade greeting cards or scrapbook layouts.

CLOSED/FULFILLED New recipients for this one please! If you received a card/mailing from me already in September, please skip this one so I can send to some new requests.
CLOSED/FULFILLED I have a punny (as in a silly pun) handmade card perfect for an October birthday. Message me your address if you would like it to land in your mailbox!
I just ordered a writing book of prompts but I thought I would start this small slim journal devoted to my love of poetry and all things home. I thought short poems and quotes would be great to get started on writing. I will share some pages when I get several done.
I visited North Head Lighthouse at Cape Disappointment a few years ago and can not find my keepsake postcards I bought from my trip. I had planned to frame them and hang them because the views were stunning and it was such a great trip I wanted a reminder of it in my hallway. If anyone has post cards for this lighthouse? Also, looking for a post card with Montauk Point Lighthouse and Tybee Island Lighthouse, since I have visited these as well and never purchased a post card. Postcards can be used, if you are willing to let go of them and I'm happy to send back a card too.
I have set up a new more private/secure email through Apple/icloud email and Etsy will not change it. Apple does use a geographic blocker and hides your identity, which is exactly why I am trying to set this up. Could this be the issue? I have tried three times and it keeps reverting back to my old email even though I received a new email verification and clicked it from my new email address in Apple. I keep getting an error at the top of my shop saying that they are unable to change my address. Why not?
My message response rate for the last star seller review period is showing 0% but I have answered every message since July during the review period. I pulled up the date sheet and all are showing answered "yes" for on time. Currently in the new review month, it is still showing blank or when you open it at 0%. Should I reach out to support? Will they review this and change it? I meet all the requirements for star seller last month but because of this current status on my messages, I did not get it. I would like to get this resolved before next month, before the eligible review again.
I just started this new group up-r/HandmadePaperCrafters mostly in response to some of the AI discussion in this group. Would love to have you join. I'm a new MOD, so please don't break the rules. It's a share your projects and questions type of group but not limited to scrapbooking only.
We have been deleting one by one our streaming services and going to building up our dvd collection. I find eBay is kind high- any other suggestions, besides garage sales?
Is it worth it to pay a company removal service (like Cloaked) to do this for you, so you don't have to do it one by one. Will this even stop the companies from adding it back on their site within a year after your annual membership is up?

I had two customers in the same city that both placed an order in my shop on the same day (two different items) and I did ship both items on the same day, the following day. However, I absolutely know I did not mix up these orders. This is not possible because I process each individual order from start to finish and purchase my postage labels one by one and add to each label to each package, after I have finished making it or getting it ready to ship. I don't do batch shipments or print my labels in groups. Each buyer has contacted me in a message and claimed I sent them the wrong item. Each provided photos of the items but oddly they are clearly in the same house, or at least I think they are - photos look to be taken on the same granite countertop but it appears the switched up the packaging and the items. The photos are almost too perfect- each item is shown on the right side of my bubble envelope with the postage label next to the item, to show the address. I ship mostly small, flat items and use the same or similar packing supplies for almost all my items and most of my items are under 4 ounces- both these items were 4 ounces, but different items I make. I have not responded yet but am considering contacting Etsy support. They have not opened a case yet either. The whole thing is just fishy. Same city for both orders, but same looking countertop surface, almost the same looking photo set up. Would my local post office be able to verify through Geo tracking? Its not possible that I mixed up the labels but how do I even prove this to Etsy support? How should I handle this?
I do have Hoopla and Kanapy but most of the streaming TV series are not available. I get it- they are making money on streaming subscriptions but just wondering if in some far off future (years) they will release to the public library? I ask because we don't have Prime and don't plan to pay for their separate streaming fee but would like to eventually watch some of their shows, like The Boys.
Currently I am trying to build up our DVD library and wondering if eBay is about the only place to buy older DVDs? Any other suggestions? I might try to check out our next local library book sale to see if they have DVDs for sale too.
I have been looking online with no luck but maybe it is just too late in the season and every breeder seems to be on either the West or East coast and we are in the Midwest. We would like a male and would prefer a kitten.
I was shopping on Etsy today and saw someone offering Psychic Readings? Had no idea this was allowed?
I managed to get through 'No Buy July' with using what I had in my craft supplies stash and not buying anything new. I think I can carry this through the rest of the year. We'll see?! Can you share some YT content creators that help you use up your current craft supplies without a haul or SU buy buy buy from me videos. Not a card but I used my Silhouette to make these last night. I had all the supplies on hand.
I am adding new fall/Halloween/Christmas inventory and prefer this to be on the first three or four pages in my shop. It takes forever to move my summer inventory to the last page of my shop with the rearrange option- is there a quicker way than moving one item back and going back to the page and moving it to the last page? How do the numbers in the corner of each photo work- should I try this instead? Any advice on getting this done faster would be appreciated.
I am a long time paper crafter and enjoy die cutting, some stamping, and cutting with my Silhouette to make handmade cards. I am looking for someone in the USA that is a skilled paper crafter or card maker that would like to exchange a short letter and a handmade card. I prefer someone that puts a little time into their cards, not just adding a sticker on a layer of card stock. Someone who enjoys stamping/die cutting/ink blending or other technique. As far as letter writing- I don't want to exchange my life story or a 5 page letter- just a short hand written maybe one page or note inside each card.
If interested, DM me with your address and if you are willing to send first.
A few things about me:
Not religious or political
Educated with a college degree in fine art
Prefer clean and simple or colorful, not grungy (no Tim Holtz) style of crafting- more like Doodlebug/Rosie's Studio/Mintay/Paige Evans/Carta Bella type of brands for crafting. Never really got into the junk journaling so not into rustic or vintage styles or paper crafting.
Holidays: Halloween, but cute and not spooky and all things Christmas -my favorite and I even like the vintage revival in Christmas designs.
Things I like: I am a Gen X and don't think of myself as old, at least not yet. Married with no children and love cats and dogs (we have two dogs and one cat). Paper crafting and also like to paint in the country primitive style- especially Christmas ornaments. Gardening. My first year growing vegetables, but growing container pots and wild flowers too. Enjoy reading- mostly non-fiction but will read fiction that has won a literary award. Home decorating- currently into antiquing and Cottagecore. I love film/movies/documentaries. My favorite are sci-fi and horror but not slasher- more into aliens and ghosts. Love a good thriller too. I love fine arts, architecture, and art history. One of my favorite YouTube channels is James Payne's Great Art Explained and also his other channel, Great Books Explained.
