Well, for better or for worse, another year has gone. Here’s a quick review of the highlights:
This year I was able to make 108 posts in spite of all that went on. There were 2712 of you visitors from 64 countries who left 1173 oh-so-kind comments. I greatly appreciate the 56 of you who follow this blog… most of you make it a point to regularly leave comments, too. Thanks!
This year’s most visited posts?
If you missed any of them, just click on the picture to go get the details.
The most commented on posts this year were:
Over on Instagram it’s a tradition to show one’s top nine… the ones that got the most ‘likes’
Some of them were surprising to me. Thanks to the 151 followers for the 2808 hearts and for your kind comments on my 154 pics!
Another surprise comes from Pinterest. Although I rarely pass 50 likes on Instagram and a dozen or so repins on Pinterest, Of the 227 cards and tags I have posted, I am flabergasted to see these four get hundreds, even thousands of repins!
Click on any one of them to go check them out and repin them if you haven’t already.
I was thrilled to receive three special honors this year:
- 1
- These cards were chosen on December 6, 2016 Die Cuts and More DCAM November Challenge international winner.
- 2
- This card was a Newton’s Nook Fan Feature on August 9, 2016.
- 3
- On February 22, 2016, Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Designer Spotlight was granted this card.

Which are my personal favorites from this year? Pfft! That’s like asking a mother which kid is her favorite. No way to choose! There are, however a couple I would like to mention that didn’t make the top picks…
The transforming window card:

The lace anniversary card.
And, in other crafting whims:

And this felt kitty coaster.
I hope you’ve enjoyed the year’s projects and this little trip down memory lane!! Thank you all so very much for your support over this past year. I look forward to reaching some new crafting goals in the upcoming months… I’ll tell you about them soon.
For right now, though, I’ve had it. I quit. I’m not posting anything more this year!! : )
See you all next year!
