February 2025: Attention to my swap partners, Please spend a few minutes of your time to rate my swap once you received it. It is only fair for my side after so much effort I put on creating the swap and taking the time to mail it to you. I believed the swap reached you safely if not you will definitely asking for a re-send. Let’s create a positive and productive swapping experienced. Thank you ❤️

2021: 7 swaps not rated

June 2023: Attention my lovely swapper friends, Please do not send me extras at the moment unless from my Likes/ Wish Lists (see below). I am doing decluttering and I have way too many extras I received over the years from swapping. I appreciated the kind gesture and thank you for sharing with me. ❤️

(First of all, please message me before rating if you do not receive anything from me OR if the swap reach you but ruined. I wil do a re-send ASAP.)

➖Hello, my name is Hamiza (Pronounce: Ah-me-za)

➖I have 4 kids and 1 fluffy pet cat.

➖I am a hobbyist and enthusiast crafter. Basically I like to learn new things and try new crafts.

“Jack of all trades, master of none.”

➖Please take a look on my IG and Flickr account (link above) you will be able to browse all my swap-bot mail arts.

➖I started with scrapbooking during my adulthood in the early years of 1995.

➖I move to doing altered craft pieces with paper crafting and decoupage in 2005

➖In 2010 I tried my hand on quilling, it was a love hate craft because of the small strip of papers.

➖I picked up calligraphy in year 2015.

➖Right on, I learned watercolour floral to incorporated with my calligraphy. Acrylics painting and oil pastels came with the desired to try more art media.

➖In 2017 I did handmade stickers and did sold them but it was not sustainable because too many competition. It only lasted for a year. It was a learning journey for me to experience mending my own craft booth.

➖Joining swap bot in 2020, widened my craft scope in making HMPC, ATC, APC, Inkbox card, Tag, ATCoin. I am glad to have my hands experiencing all this crafts and able to do swap at same time.

➖Gelli printing and handmade papers intrigued me and self taught myself on 2021

➖I jumped in the wagon and created my first group swap - All About Handmade Postcard on 27th August 2022. Thank you everyone for the support. 🩷

➖I always love to doodle since school and was happy to come across zentagles and botanical line drawing along the way. The first Neurographic Art PC I organized for a swap in swap bot was on May 2023. Come take a look at my doodle IG account: doodles.by.hami

➖I enjoyed doing paper crafts and be as creative as I can be! My craft styles evolved through the years. I co-operate my paper crafting with mixed media art. I am loving how this both implement each other.

➖In 2023 I started to doing junk journal and I have few journals running concurrently. I hope to develop this culture and create more!

➖Early year of 2024, I received a vintage Rolodex and I started joining Memory Dex swap and hope to fill it up soon.

➖ I tried my best to up-cycling/re-used/re-purposed good stash of papers (from mail art, paper bags, old book pages) for my journaling and on my paper crafting too..

➖ I love gardening, this was cultivated by my late mother. Right now I don’t own a garden because of living in an apartment. But I have quite a number of potted plants.

➖ I love all colours but love Pink shades more.

➖I love all sort of coffee and enjoyed drinking hot teas on rainy days.

➖I rate accordingly when effort are put into the swap (understandably) not because of extras. But when extras are given I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.

➖I normally join swap that I am able to put my creativity on it. I put a lot of effort on my mail art swaps. I am more comfortable joining “sender’s choice swap”. But I will make a point to read my partner’s profile and accommodate to their likes and dislikes.

➖If you read up to here, thank you for reading my profile.

✖️People who Do Not Rate, Flaker, Racist and Prejudice.(Sorry, I just have to put this here.)

✖️I don’t like alpha/foam/student/teacher stickers.

✖️Try not to over do it with glitters making the mail hideous and difficult to clean up.

✖️Overload of kawaii is to much for me.

✖️I hate critters, bugs and insects. (Butterfly, Bettle, Dragonfly and Lady Bug is fine)

I am a movie geek! I still vividly remembered watching the 1st Star Wars movie in cinema during 1977.

I hate horror movie but sometime due to peer pressured I will dare myself to watch it.

I love romantic comedy, romance, action, Sci Fi and suspense movies.

I love sequels/ trilogy movies. Such as: Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Back To The Future, X-men, Jason Bourne, Jurassic Park, Transformer, Mission Impossible, Fast and Furious, Blade Runner, Planet of The Apes, Jumanji, Avengers (Marvel),

Toy Story, Shrek, Incredibles, Despicable Me was some of my favourite animation movies.

Life is so much better now with Netflix around. Growing up I have to depend on limited dramas that broadcast on our local channels. But having said that I enjoyed most of it.

I love good old family dramas, romantic comedy sitcom, medical dramas, crimes and investigation series.

The list is long but some of my favourite: Friends, How I Met Your Mother, Gilmore Girls, Superstore, Walking Dead, Grey Anatomy, Sherlock Holmes, Suits, Chesapeake Shores, Virgin River, Manifest

I love binge watching Korean dramas too. I am quite selective and preferred dramas with good story plot only.

📩 Sometime mails from Singapore to International countries is unpredictable. I have some swaps reach less than 4 weeks and others may take up to 8 weeks.

📩 But if it takes longer than that do message me before rating and we will work something out. I will normally do a re-send if the waiting time take ages.

📩 I always take a snapshot of the swap before putting in the mailbox. This is as a backup proof if anything goes wrong. (I will send thru email to you if there is a need to.)

📩 Please do not get alarm/angry if you receive a message from me. I will try to contact my swap partner if there is no rating after at least few months. Please take your time to read my message and get back to me. I appreciate if you reach me back.

📩 Most importantly, please rate me promptly and by doing so I know that my swap reach you safely.

AND

📩 I will also message to enquire from my sender swap partner to let them know if I do not receive my swap from them before rating unnecessarily. So action can be taken if the swap is lost and the need to re-send.

📩 I understand if your mail reach late but do not FLAKE!

➖Year 2020-2021: 136 Swaps / 122 ❤️

➖Year 2021-2022: 376 Swaps / 349 ❤️

➖Year 2022-2023: 617 Swaps / 582 ❤️

➖Year 2023-2024: 816 Swaps / 766 ❤️

Frankly speaking I hate to do this.I do not rate 1 for no reason. I always try to message and make conversation regarding the swap first. But if I waited for quite a long period of time, either conversation die off with no resolution made or the swap/ re-send did not really reach me. Then, I think it is only fair to leave a rating as per- swap bot criteria.
