As it's New Year's Eve, I thought I'd look back on some of the cards I've posted over the last year and share some of my favourites again. Some of you are new followers so may have missed them when I first posted them. I've picked one from each month - you may want to grab a cuppa. Each card has a link to the original post so you can go and read about how it was made if you like.
Thank you all for your support and kind comments over the last year. Happy New Year to you all!
January
I love the Vintage Inventor stamp sets designed by Sam Poole. This card is a great Valentines Card for a guy. You can see the details here.
February
This card was made using the Creative Expressions Beautiful Ladies Stamp Set. You can see the details here.
March
A card from one of the first Spellbinders Shows I did. Details are here.
April
I made this card way back in April but it got another airing on the Toolshed Show in November. Details are here.
May
I loved how this one turned out - lots of different dies on this one but my favourite part is the Grosgrain rose. Details are here.
June
Yes - we were doing Christmas shows in June! This is one of my favourite Christmas cards that I've made this year. Details are here.
July
Half way through - hope you're not bored yet! This was a demo from the Pick of the Week that Hels and I did. Details are here.
August
Another card from the Pick of the Week in July. I've used this layout a few times since - love the yummy Cosmic Shimmer Embossing Powders. Watch out for those on my next shows. Details are here.
September
I loved working with the Walnut Hollow Metal Sheets and this is one of my favourite cards using them. Details are here.
October
I just had to choose a card made with the Sole Creations Stamp Set. I have sold more of this stamp set than any other in my Amazon Store. It flew out at Ally Pally and at Kettering. Truly gorgeous images on this set. Details of this card are here.
November
I struggled a bit picking one out for November as there's quite a few that I really like from this month. This one is from the Toolshed show. Details are here.
December
Another difficult month to choose from. Details for this card are here.
Hope you've enjoyed my look back at the past year. Here's to 2013!
Thanks for stopping by.
Julia.

ReplyDeleteMorning Julia,
Looking back over the past. Cards it is amazing how things have changed. Your style and colours have opened my eyes to using other colours . Thank you.
Wishing you and yours a Very Happy New Year. X
Happy New Year, Julia. Me thinks blue and red are your favourite colours. Have to admit that the blue ones appeal to me the most. I do try and make my cards to suit the recipient but if I'm stuck I'll reach for the blues.looking forward to more cards, and therefore more goodies in 2013. Ju
ReplyDeleteMorning Julia, All these cards are adorable, I missed the earlier ones, so this is fabulous for me. I adore the steampunk style. Thank you so much for bringing all these styles to our attention and for giving us so much inspiration. You take us out of our 'comfort zone' and give us the ability to venture into other colourways, and for that I SALUTE YOU.
ReplyDeleteLots of love from Patricia xx
I think my fav is June, love the colours
