Unidentified Swaps

June 2, 2025: I received a swap with no identifying information (no return address, no swap ID) so I have no idea who it's from. The items in the swap aren't specific enough for me to guess which swap it's from, either, as I'm in a couple "stuff the mailbox" type swaps. If you're missing a rating from me and sent something in a white envelope, please message me. Thanks!

About Me

Hello! I'm Bex!

I'm a gaming and academic librarian who loves cats, gaming (TTRPGs, board games video games), crafting, reading, and snail mailing.

General interests: ๐Ÿ˜ป cats ๐Ÿ‰ dragons ๐Ÿฆ‰ owls ๐Ÿ“š books โ˜• coffee & tea ๐ŸŒฒ forests ๐Ÿฆ„ fantasy โœจ fairy tales ๐Ÿ folklore ๐Ÿ™ mythology ๐Ÿ›ธ sci-fi ๐Ÿงซ science ๐Ÿ’ซ space ๐ŸŽฒ gaming ๐Ÿงน occult ๐Ÿ”ฎ tarot / lenormand ๐Ÿ‘ป paranormal

Favorite Crafts

I've recently started making gel prints! I love unique buttons with fun patterns or textures that I can use to create textures in paint.

I enjoy making postcards and custom envelopes for regular cards.

I love rubber stamp carving!

Making mini zines!

Favorite Media

I enjoy books and movies/TV. Fantasy is my favorite. I like both high fantasy and cozy fantasy. I like sci-fi and paranormal, too.

I love games! I really enjoy tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), even solo TTRPGs. I also like board games and video games. I love campaign style board games like Artisans of Splendent Vale or Gloomhaven, as well as deck builders like Mystic Vale. I really love logic puzzles, so I like board games like Cryptid and The Search for Plant X, as well.

Vibes

Good vibes: forest witch, dark academia, cozy fantasy, moss kittens, stationary and craft supplies, interactive fiction, zines, games, mixed media art (including handmade bookmarks and postcards)

Bad vibes: food, jewelry, things that smell like cigarette smoke, slime, tiny loose glitter (pressed glitter is fine, or samples of chunky glitter), Americana, Christian religious items

ALLERGIES: Smoke, latex, nickel/brass

Comment: Hi Bex! I loved your three zines and the extra you shared with me about the rat! You are so talented with your stamp making, as well as your zines! How cool about the Chicago Zinefest - it sounds awesome! Ok, not to sound like the little old lady that I am, did you feel safe? I am about 6 hours from Chicago and that sounds so fun! I would love to attend an event about zines - learning about them now as really got my blood flowing to make them! All the best! Hugs and Happy Swapping! ;)
Response: Thank you!! I'm so glad you enjoyed them! Chicago Zinefest was a lot of fun! It was held at the Harold Washington library in downtown Chicago and I felt very safe attending and would happily go again!

Comment: Ohhh, the decorations on this chunk are SO cool! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฆ‘ I absolutely love mixing space and ocean themes. The bottom of the ocean is deep and dark like space, right? โœจ And, yessss, I love using the cardboard they send with stamp orders for crafting. They send a whole sheet of it! So much to play with! ๐Ÿ’œ Thank you for the fabulous swap!
Response: You are very welcome! I'm so glad you like it!! Yes, I also really lived the ocean/space combination! Your comment has made my day, thanks!!

Comment: Thanks for the swap and the fun PC. I just have to ask...a set of dice?
Response: I like playing tabletop role-playing games and love collecting dice. I've got a set on me at all times, pretty much. They are fun to fidget with, too.

Comment: I loved seeing your wide variety of stamps. This is my first time carving my own stamps so I find seeing other crafter's work really helpful and inspirational. Thank you for sharing yours with me! And great bookmark!
Response: Thank you, and thanks for the heart! I also really like seeing other folks' work. People make such cool things!

Comment: Great zine. I really like the background dictionary page and especially the comments on your stamps. Keep carving! Thanks also for the great bookmark which I am already using in an interesting book about the discovery of an ancient poem by Lucretius. I really liked your envelope, too, which is destined for collage :).
Response: Thank you! And thanks for the heart! I'm glad you're enjoying the bookmark! I had a bunch printed -- it's an image of a collage I made using Nat Geo magazines. The envelope is one of my favorites - and great for collage!
