Liocorno is my magickal name and is Italian for unicorn. I have collected unicorns all my life. The Amethyst signifies my passion for purple. The Moonstone brings healing and good fortune. I am Neo-Pagan & amateur practitioner of energy work. I adore books & have a library of 2,000+ titles.
I own an also online rubber stamp company called Imagiart Stamps - www.imagiart.com. My Ebay store lists many of the items such as our many papers types including our chiyogami. Prints. There are over 100 different collage sheets with themes such as Asian, animals (dragonfly, birds, African), hand-tinted photos, mushrooms, women/nudes and landscapes.
I am 34 years old. I have been married 11 years. My husband and I are childless by choice, but hope to sponsor an exchange student or perhaps foster children when my husband retires in about 8 years. While he is 20 years older than I am, we share the same core values and outlook on life. In our differences, we both complement and complete each other. I am the spontaneous and creative one. He is the logical and practical one. I believe we are soul mates, both in this world, Summerland, and in rebirth. He loves unconditionally and is the most perfect husband in the world.

My library includes large collection of erotic/fantasy art titles and coffee table books. It also contains many arts & crafts books. Paper arts books are my favorite such as bookbinding, marbling, papermaking, origami, collage and calligraphy. I have lots of rubber stamping, soap making, candle making, jewelry making and stained glass titles as well. In addition to unicorns, I collect dolphins, fairies, American Girl dolls, African animals, Asian items, miniature tea sets and instruments. I love to listen to many music genres including pop, modern R&B, Christian Rock, and New Age.
I love animals, but we don’t have much outdoor space and I am allergic to cat’s & dogs. However, I do have a Quaker bird named Squeaker who loves to say “hokey pokey” “I’m so cute” “Kiss the Mama” and “pop”. I also have a hedgehog named Curious who love to burrow under it’s litter box, hide under blankets and run on it’s wheel. It also loves the smell of Red perfume. I hope to add YouTube video of both soon.
I am an internet surfing junkie and spend at least 20 hours a week online. I also love simulation/God games such as Sims, SimCity, Zoo Tycoon, Roller Coaster Tycoon and Civilization.
I got this book out of the library. I have written 500+ reviews. I VERY RARELY give a score below 3 or feel the need to trash a book. However, after looking at the mostly positive reviews (I have my doubts these reviews actually even looked at the book), I couldn't help myself. The book has almost no instruction on iris folding. Only one project, the circle was numbered. All the rest of the templates were unnumbered in the back and needed (IMHO) to be enlarged. There were lots of pictures, but none of the iris folding ones were helpful and the rest were mostly about adding stuff like feathered angel wings or making grass to the cards. I had wanted to make the heart card featured on the… Read more
There are a ton a reviews here, so I won't repeat (please don't unhelpful vote me) it all here, I just wanted to add a few comments. I liked this book and it will definitely on my Christmas list (Library copy for now) in December. However, I did have some issues along the way. It's defiantly a good book starting point for those new to soldering and glass cutting, especially those that want to add a new dimension to their collage artwork. I loved the little glass house lamp (she even gives wiring directions) shown on the cover and her advice on doing collage when your have writer's (or more artist's) block.
At the same time, I am quite annoyed at one project (a few other's used hard… Read more
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program(What's this?)
As both a bird and animal lover, I adored this book. I had never heard the story of Alex before and once I picked up the book, I couldn't put it down. This is not only the story of the bird, but of the author, Irene Pepperbergs's, journey. I laughed, cried and cheered her on, as she struggled to research Alex's mind with little support from the general academic community.
As a female living in modern times, it gave me a new appreciation for the equality we have today. I guess I never realized how hard it was for a female to survive, let alone obtain success, in the male dominated world of science just a few decades ago. The author was a pioneer in animal intelligence. I was… Read more
